<font size=2 face="sans-serif">Hi Seb</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Yes a user could be an IP Address. I
suppose no other identifying information such as usernames etc are sent.
Please correct me if Im wrong.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">As per what you say, only aggregates
of country data is sent to the browser for rendering using the google component,
which would mean that it is not possible to identify individual users.
Please confirm. Then it would be probably be ok for us. However, I still
need to discuss this internally.</font>

<br><font size=3>What do you call a user? an IP address?<br>
<br>
EPrints stores the IP address of a download request (in the 'access' dataset),
IRStats2 processes it in order to find out its geo-location (the country).
Aggregates of country data is rendered on the GeoMap.<br>
<br>
^^ that's the only scenario where something is done with the IP address
within IRStats2. Other metrics don't require that piece of information.<br>

Thanks for your reply.</font><font size=3> <br>
</font><font size=2 face="sans-serif"><br>
For us it is important that all data being sent outside our system - the
generated statistics and graphs as well as data being transferred in the
background, is always aggregated data only without the possibility of identifying
individual users. Is this guaranteed?</font><font size=3> <br>

Hi Clyde,<br>
<br>
The following Google Charts are used by IRStats2:<br>
<br>
- Area Charts: </font><a href="https://google-developers.appspot.com/chart/interactive/docs/gallery/areachart"><font size=3 color=blue><u>https://google-developers.appspot.com/chart/interactive/docs/gallery/areachart</u></font></a><font size=3><br>
- Column Charts: </font><a href="https://google-developers.appspot.com/chart/interactive/docs/gallery/columnchart"><font size=3 color=blue><u>https://google-developers.appspot.com/chart/interactive/docs/gallery/columnchart</u></font></a><font size=3><br>
- Combo Charts: </font><a href="https://google-developers.appspot.com/chart/interactive/docs/gallery/combochart"><font size=3 color=blue><u>https://google-developers.appspot.com/chart/interactive/docs/gallery/combochart</u></font></a><font size=3><br>
- Pie Charts: </font><a href="https://google-developers.appspot.com/chart/interactive/docs/gallery/piechart"><font size=3 color=blue><u>https://google-developers.appspot.com/chart/interactive/docs/gallery/piechart</u></font></a><font size=3><br>
<br>
These 4 have the same data policy (look at the bottom of each of the pages
above): </font>
<p><font size=4 color=#2f2f2f face="Arial">Data Policy</font><font size=3>
</font><font size=2 color=#2f2f2f face="Arial"><br>
All code and data are processed and rendered in the browser. No data is
sent to any server.</font><font size=3> </font>
<p><font size=3><br>
- Geo Charts: </font><a href="https://google-developers.appspot.com/chart/interactive/docs/gallery/geochart"><font size=3 color=blue><u>https://google-developers.appspot.com/chart/interactive/docs/gallery/geochart</u></font></a><font size=3><br>
<br>
That one seems a bit more tricky: </font><a href="https://google-developers.appspot.com/maps/terms"><font size=3 color=blue><u>https://google-developers.appspot.com/maps/terms</u></font></a><font size=3><br>
<br>
Note that the Geo map can easily be replaced by a simple table which is
rendered outside Google Charts. Anyway there's a known issue with EPrints
3.2 and EPrints 3.3 up to 3.3.9 which prevents the Geo Map to load successfully
(clash with Prototype v1.7- fixed in 1.7.1).<br>
<br>
The way the code generally works is this way:<br>
<br>
- browser loads JS library from Google's servers: </font><a href=http://www.google.com/jsapi><font size=1 color=blue face="Consolas"><u>http://www.google.com/jsapi</u></font></a><font size=3><br>
- local JS code instantiates a Chart and feeds it data<br>
- Chart renders data locally.<br>
<br>
For info, tables and other bits of IRStats2 (exporters etc) are rendered
outside Google Charts.<br>
<br>
I hope this will help you.<br>
<br>
Kind regards,<br>
Seb.<br>
<br>
<br>

Hi all<br>
<br>
To the developers of IRStats 2:<br>
<br>
In general, as a government organisation we are not allowed to send usage
<br>
data to third parties like Google. Could you please give me exact <br>
information about which data are being sent to Google/other parties by
<br>
IRStats 2? That way, I could investigate further if we would be legally
<br>
allowed to use IRStats 2.<br>
<br>
Thanks.<br>
<br>
Best regards<br>
