• What is data anonymization in web analytics ?

  11 février 2020, par Joselyn Khor — Analytics Tips, Privacy
  Collecting information via web analytics platforms is needed to help a website grow and improve. When doing so, it’s best to strike a balance between getting valuable insights, and keeping the trust of your users by protecting their privacy.

  This means not collecting or processing any personally identifiable information (PII). But what if your organisation requires you to collect PII ?

  That’s where data anonymization comes in.

  

  What is data anonymization ?

  Data anonymization makes identifiable information unidentifiable. This is done through data processing techniques which remove or modify PII data. So data becomes anonymous and can’t be linked to any individual.

  In the context of web analytics, data anonymization is handy because you can collect useful data while protecting the privacy of website visitors.

  Why is data anonymization important ?

  Through modern threats of identity theft, credit card fraud and the like, data anonymization is a way to protect the identity and privacy of individuals. As well as protect private and sensitive information of organisations. 

  Data anonymization lets you follow the many laws around the world which protect user privacy. These laws provide safeguards around collecting personal data or personally identifiable information (PII), so data anonymization is a good solution to ensure you’re not processing such sensitive information.

  In some cases, implementing data anonymization techniques means you can avoid having to show your users a consent screen. Which means you may not need to ask for consent in order to track data. This is a bonus as consent screens can annoy and stop people from engaging with your site.

  GDPR and data anonymization

  

  The GDPR is a law in the EU that limits the collection and processing of personal data. The aim is to give people more control over their online personal information. Which is why website owners need to follow certain rules to become GDPR compliant and protect user privacy. According to the GDPR, you can be fined up to 4% of your yearly revenue for data breaches or non-compliance. 

  In the case of web analytics, tools can be easily made compliant by following a number of steps. 

  This is why anonymizing data is a big deal.

  Anonymized data isn’t personal data according to the GDPR : 

  “The principles of data protection should therefore not apply to anonymous information, namely information which does not relate to an identified or identifiable natural person or to personal data rendered anonymous in such a manner that the data subject is not or no longer identifiable.”

  This means, you still get the best of both worlds. By anonymizing data, you’re still able to collect useful information like visitor behavioural data.

  US privacy laws and data anonymization

  In the US, there isn’t one single law that governs the protection of personal data, called personally identifiable information (PII). There are hundreds of federal and state laws that protect the personal data of US residents. As well as, industry-specific statutes related to data privacy, like the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).

  Website owners in the US need to know exactly what laws govern their area of business in order to follow them.

  A general guideline is to protect user privacy regardless of whether you are or aren’t allowed to collect PII. This means anonymizing identifiable information so your website users aren’t put at risk.

  Data anonymization techniques in Matomo Analytics

  If you carry these out, you won’t need to ask your website visitors for tracking consent since anonymized data is no longer considered personal data under the GDPR.

  • Anonymize previously tracked raw data – like visitors/visits
  • Anonymize Visitor IP addresses
  • Anonymize geo-location information (country, region, city)
  • Pseudonymize User ID ( if you don’t want this data to land on your Matomo server, the solution is simply to not set the User ID. Then Matomo will use the normal anonymized IDs)
  • Data can also be anonymized before it’s even sent to Matomo
  • Learn how to further configure privacy settings in a web analytics tool like Matomo
  • 11 ways Matomo Analytics helps you to protect your visitors privacy

  The techniques listed above make it easy for you when using a tool like Matomo, as they are automatically anonymized.

  Tools like Google Analytics on the other hand don’t provide some of the privacy options and leave it up to you to take on the burden of implementation without providing steps.

  Data anonymization tools

  If you’re a website owner who wants to grow your business or learn more about your website visitors, privacy-friendly tools like Matomo Analytics are a great option. By following the easy steps to be GDPR compliant, you can anonymize all data that could put your visitors at risk.

• Discord.js Music bot TypeError [ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE] : The "file" argument must be of type string. Received type object

  21 février 2020, par Cole Perry

  I’m new to Discord.js and I’m trying to have the bot join a voice channel and play an audio file on my computer. I have been following this guide : https://discord.js.org/#/docs/main/stable/topics/voice . Here is the Index.js page :

  const Discord = require('discord.js');
  
  const Colesbot = new Discord.Client();
  
  
  
  const token = '***********************************************';
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  Colesbot.on('ready', () =>{
  
      console.log('Slamsbot is online.');
  
  })
  
  
  
  Colesbot.on('message', msg=>{
  
     if(msg.content == "What up bot?"){
  
         msg.reply("Whats good pimp?")
  
     }
  
  });
  
  
  
  Colesbot.on('message', message=>{
  
      if (message.content === '/join') {
  
          // Only try to join the sender's voice channel if they are in one themselves
  
          if (message.member.voiceChannel) {
  
              message.member.voiceChannel.join().then(connection => {
  
                  message.reply('I have successfully connected to the channel!');
  
  
  
                  // To play a file, we need to give an absolute path to it
  
                  const dispatcher = connection.playFile('C:\Users\bobal\Documents\GitHub\Spotify-Playlist-Discord-bot\Assets\Glory.mp3');
  
  
  
                  dispatcher.on('end', () => {
  
                      // The song has finished
  
                      console.log('Finished playing!');
  
                    });
  
  
  
                  dispatcher.on('error', e => {
  
                      // Catch any errors that may arise
  
                      console.log(e);
  
                    });
  
  
  
                    dispatcher.setVolume(0.5); // Set the volume to 50%
  
              }).catch(console.log);
  
      } else {
  
          message.reply('You need to join a voice channel first!');
  
        }
  
      }
  
   });
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  //Event listener for new guild members
  
  Colesbot.on('guildMemberAdd', member =>{
  
      // Send the message to a designated channel on a server:
  
      const channel = member.guild.channels.find(ch => ch.name === 'general');
  
      // Do nothing if the channel wasn't found on this server
  
      if (!channel) return;
  
      // Send the message, mentioning the member
  
      channel.send(`Welcome to the server, ${member}. Please use the bot-commands channel to assign yourself a role.`);
  
  })
  
  
  
  Colesbot.login(token);
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  exports.run = (client, message, args) => {
  
  
  
      let user = message.mentions.users.first || message.author;

• Analytics for the Internet of Things : collecting all your things’ data with Piwik to stay in control ?

  25 novembre 2015, par Matthieu Aubry — About

  At Piwik and Piwik PRO, our mission is to create the leading free and open source analytics platform, and supporting global organisations and communities to keep full control over their data.

  Our broad mission started 8 years ago and we focused at first helping people to liberate their website analytics data, then liberate their mobile app analytics data. But it is clear that there is much more than Web + Mobile : data is everywhere and a lot more data is being generated by software, people and their activities, robots, sensors…

  I’d like to share an interesting article which highlights one of the growing trends of technology : the rise of the Internet Of Things : 6 Ways Analytics And The Internet Of Things Will Transform Business.

  Here is an extract :

  The tech industry is no stranger to change, but the data derived from the IoT is taking disruption to a new level.

  At IBM’s Insight conference last month, Bob Picciano, senior vice president of IBM Analytics, talked about the rise of the “cognitive business”, or an enterprise that engages with analytics to improve its customer relations, business processes, and decision-making capabilities.

  There are dueling predictions over how ubiquitous the Internet of Things will be, but most indicate that the marketplace will host between 50 and 75 billion connected objects by 2020, signaling novel challenges for hardware manufacturing and development. Software engineers, likewise, may need to completely revamp programs to better exploit the influx of data, while innovators need to wrestle with the changes wrought by analytics.

  IBM’s Insight event unfolded in light of this wave of disruption. The lineup of corporate presenters converged on the same message : Analytics is for everyone, and your viability in the marketplace depends on it.

  […]

  IBM’s Insight 2015 conference sounded off on the most important trends in data usage and management. It also served a wake-up call for developers, engineers, and tech leaders. As the Internet of Things alters the landscape of analytics, hardware design needs to change, software development requires novel approaches, and tech management must become more agile in order to realize data’s greatest benefits.

  So far there are 1 million websites using Piwik… but what if there could be 10 or 50 million things (sensors, devices) being measured by Piwik ?

  Together we will be creating the best open source and generic analytics platform, that is engineered to last, and designed to help humanity keep control and gain Freedom.

  We aim for Piwik to be the ideal platform to measure the Internet Of Things.

  We’re still at the beginning of this journey and it will take the best of all of us to get there.

  See you on the way !

  PS : if you’d like to get involved with Piwik, we would be glad to welcome you !
