The goal of this issue is to display the Disclaimer #3725 about data collection in the iFrame opt-out feature of Piwik. (user guide). It is a great opportunity to re-use the opt-out iframe useful functionality to inform users about how the data collected by Piwik.

I think we just need to provide boilerplate text that web site operators can use, in addition to privacy policy, terms of service, etc already specific to their site(s).

For an example of Privacy policy we would link to our privacy policy on piwik.org (hopefully we can make it a role model for all piwik users to reuse!) #1828

Then this ticket could be narrowed down to "Text to add to your existing Privacy Policy". The text would explain how Piwik is used on the site and would answer the following points (at least):

(Source: Open Recommendations for Use of Web Measurement Tools on Federal Government Web Sites)

Center for Democracy & Technology
Electronic Frontier Foundation

PROMINENTLY DISCLOSE
Federal agencies using Web measurement tools on their sites should
disclose,ataminimum,thefollowingitems:

  • Thefactthatmeasurementishappening,
  • Thereasonsforconductingthemeasurement,
  • Thetypeofmeasurementused(singlesessionorcrosssession),
  • Thetechnologiesusedtomeasure,
  • The identities of all thirdparty vendors involved inthemeasurementprocess,Howsitevisitorscanexercisechoiceabouthavingtheirbehaviormeasured,
  • Thedataretentionpoliciesoftheagencyandallthirdpartyvendors
    involved,and
  • Howmeasurementdataissafeguarded

We could provide pre-filled info such as "Raw data logs are deleted after 6 months", or "Your IP is anonymized when tracked on this Piwik server".

Question: can we mention "Piwik" in the text? I suppose we have to, so that people can actually research that what we say is true - the beauty of free software ;-)

Any other feedback about how to make Privacy better known to Piwik users, and their website more useful to their users, please comment!
