Design Concept: Analytics & Statistics

Opened this issue · 0 comments

This epic documents the icon design concept of Nord Docs Analytics and Statistics evaluation. It defines the process steps to decide about the usage reach and necessity as well as respecting the privacy of users.

🚧 This is a living document which means it is work in progress, not completed yet and will be extended!

User Privacy

We respect the users privacy in all aspects and therefore only collect a minimal set of analytics & statistics data.

Anonymized IPs

To protect the privacy all users Nord Docs will only collect data with anonymized IPs.

Respect of “Do Not Track” HTTP Headers

To protect the user privacy and their browsing settings/behaviors Nord Docs will respect the “Do Not Track” HTTP Header.

Google Analytics

The main tool to collect and analyze data will be Google Analytics. It is a stable and proven service with a lot of useful configurable features and a reliable persistence.

Nord Docs will use the latest and recommended gtag.js library that optionally allows, next to Google Analytics itself, the integration of almost all Google Marketing services like e.g. Google Tag Manager.

All implementation details and requirements are documented and tracked in the corresponding issues:
