However, now don't stress too much accessing of personal data by iOS apps can be controlled(iPhone tricks), as you can change privacy setting easily app-by-app basis. 

How to control accessing of personal data by iOS apps


Just follow the instructions:

  1. Open setting app and tap privacy or ask SiRi to "Show my privacy setting."
  2. You will see each data category listing, including contacts, location, calendar and more. 
  3. Tap on each category on the list to see that which app has access to personal data.
  4. Now, use toggle to turn On or Off access for each app.
  5. That's it, you have controlled iOS app from accessing personal data.
Follow this process carefully because some apps need access to that data for their functionality. So if you disable access for all apps than a certain feature within app will break.
