You can revoke the usage data collection permissions you have granted to certain applications on your Xiaomi mobile. These are not classic permissions that you will find in the homonymous section of the settings, but rather They are in a different section. Follow these steps:

  • Open Settings.
  • Click Passwords & Privacy.
  • Click Authorization and Revocation.
  • Remove permissions from desired apps.

As you can see, the apps that appear in this section for you to grant or revoke their permission are system owned and in many cases you will not be able to use them if you do not grant them this permission, you must therefore choose carefully which application you delete it from.
