Hello friends,
We have updated the OONI Data Policy: https://ooni.org/about/data-policy/
The latest version (1.4.0) of the OONI Data Policy includes the following changes:
* We now use our own ASN database (following the changes to MaxMind's license)
* You can no longer opt out of submitting country code information (e.g. "IT" for Italy), as this significantly limits the value of measurements (i.e. we have no idea where a test was run)
* We use a self-hosted analytics platform on our websites and OONI Probe apps in order to better understand how our apps are used, improve our understanding of user needs, improve OONI tools, and better serve the OONI community. You can opt out of our use of analytics by disabling the collection of app usage statistics in the OONI Probe app settings (and you can opt out of our use of analytics on ooni.org and explorer.ooni.org by unchecking the opt-out box at the end of our Data Policy).
* In our Data Policy, we have added a section on the collection of app usage statistics
* In our Data Policy, we have added a section where we disclose what information we will collect if you opt in to push notifications
* OONI measurements are openly published by default, but we will not publish data related to app analytics and push notification support (which is securely stored separately from the public measurement metadb)
Happy to address any questions you may have.
Thanks,
~ OONI team.
