RE: [phoenix-dev] First steps towards a better eclipse.org website
|
German law is very strict when it comes to privacy. There have been two
recent rulings where a German ministry that has been using Analytics has
been convicted to remove Google Analytics. The minister is personally in
charge to make sure that they are not using it, if they breach she has
to pay a charge of 250K and could even go to jail.

Crazy Germans, but there is some risk ...

Jochen,
I don't understand that comment. Can you please elaborate?
To the best of my knowledge, Google Analytics does not track any
user-identifiable data. Given that, what are the concerns you are
raising?
