Collection of information
Information collected for the Data Controller
The following information is recorded by Aircloak Insights:
Personal information
Your name and email address as part of your user profile as well as other
Aircloak Insights-specific system settings.
Query history
The queries you execute in Aircloak Insights along with related metadata
and the query results are recorded. Related metadata includes such things as:
- the data source the query was run against
- how long the query took to execute
-
how many columns were requested and how many columns had to be loaded
out of the database - what query features and capabilities were used (such as function names)
Audit log
Aircloak Insights provides audit logging capabilities. In addition to the
queries being executed the audit log records actions such as changing your
profile information or logging in to the system.
For users with administrative privileges, additional information is recorded,
namely such actions as the creation of user accounts or groups, altering
data sources, or changing the general system settings.
Information collected for Aircloak GmbH
Aircloak GmbH collects pseudonymised statistics about the queries being executed.
Each analyst is identified by a pseudonym. The pseudonym is an abstract identifier
that only gives Aircloak GmbH the ability to correlate multiple actions taken by a
single individual. It does not provide Aircloak GmbH with knowledge of the user’s
name or other personal details. For each query the same metadata recorded by
Aircloak Insights is also sent to Aircloak GmbH. This includes information such as:
- the data source the query was run against
- how long the query took to execute
-
how many columns were requested and how many columns had to be loaded
out of the database - what query features and capabilities were used (such as function names)
Aircloak GmbH does not record the queries themselves nor the query results.
The information is analysed through an instance of Aircloak Insights.
The fully anonymised statistical information of such analyses is subsequently
used to assess how well different aspects of the system perform and help
prioritise future improvements.
