- okamiueru 4y agoGDPR deals with user identifiable data or that can be tied to the identity of a user through partially anonymous data. It should be fine to collect "telemetry" as long as the data itself isn't personal and that it also cannot be tied in any way to a particular user. At least, this is how I've interpreted the GDPR rules. On the other hand if you tie telemetry to a user ID, fingerprint, unique device identifier, etc, then all the data is personal, and since it's not obvious and necessary, you also cannot argue its a legitimate interest (note that most GDPR popups arguing legitimate interest are absolutely not valid).
