Hey everyone
At first I want to apologize for my bad English it's not my main language.
My question is how dangerous king root for my personal data is I had king root on my phone but I didn't root it I had some very private photos on my phone and I heard King root steals data from the users now I have anxiety about my privacy I know this app can do a lot of bad when your phone is rooted but can it also do that when my phone isn't rooted I tried to root my phone with it but it didn't work I hope they did not steal from me and I hope you guys can help me please:(

Yeh Kingroot has been confirmed by multiple sources as spyware, with data mining and phoning home to China.

Strongly suggest you remove it from your device. You'll likely need to re-flash the original manufacturer firmware for your phone to remove it completely.

I deleted it already do you mean they can spy me even when my phone isn't rooted I checked it with root checker and it says my phone is no rooted.
 
When you installed and ran Kingroot, did it go through a rooting process, that will either show SUCCESS or FAIL, and did you see an app called Kinguser on there?
