How can individuals strike a balance between benefiting from the convenience of health tracking apps and wearable devices while also safeguarding their personal privacy and data security?

Individuals can strike a balance by carefully reviewing the privacy policies of the apps and devices they use to understand how their data will be collected and shared. They can also limit the amount of personal information they provide and regularly review and update their privacy settings.
