On information gathered from Google Analytics usage

  • No personally identifying information will be recorded or released.
  • Anonymous user identification will be gathered, but it will not be released.
    • This information will be used only if it is believed that a user is attempting to tamper with Analytics data.
    • This information will not be used to limit usage of Bias Finder, but it may induce a ghost ban on Google analytics tracking.
      • This ghost ban will not affect end-user usage of Bias Finder in any way.
  • Google Analytics data gathered will not be sold, exchanged, or given to any third party without public release.
    • An exception is if the data is given to a third party in preparation for public release.
      • All data given this way will be under embargo until public release.

tl;dr Sending usage data to Google Analytics will not affect you, but you may opt out anyways if you wish. Your data won't be sold if you stay opted in.

Bias Finder will track the following data

  • Sites that users visit which are listed on allsides.
    • As well as the associated bias of those sites
  • The site a user is on when the popup is clicked, if that site has a listing
    • If the site does not have a listing, data is also sent but that data will not list any information about the site visited.
  • When a user clicks a footer link, or the "Click here for more information" link on listed sites
  • The value of search terms when a user uses the search allsides for this news site search box.
  • When a user updates to a new version of Bias Finder, and what that new version is.
