Statistics page could have better phrasing

Solsmed 6 years ago 0

On the "Sending anyonymous statistics page", most options are clearly anonymous, such as "number of ...", or whether an option is enabled or not.


However, there are several items which could seem to be very sensitive and revealing, and not at all anonymous. These are:

  • Users
  • All items
  • All shared items (not including personal ones)
  • All folders
  • All shared folders (not including personal ones)


There are some examples given of usage, producing anonymous statistics, but it is not clear that the original data sent is anonymised or not containing sensitive data. If data is anonymised and not sensitive when being sent, the text should clarify what data fields exactly are being sent.


I want to support the project with anonymous statistics, but I want to feel safe doing so.
