It would therefore be great if issues related to privacy were better documented. I couldn't find any page in the documentation that summarizes precisely which data is up-/downloaded by the plugin to/from which services and whether any settings (apart from the hashing of ip addresses) have any privacy implications.\r\n\r\nFrom skim reading the code and the discussions on the forum, I get the impression that wp-statistics does a great job in terms of privacy. Then why not brag about it on a documentation page? :-)\r\n\r\nAs an example: I asked myself (and still do not understand this fully) what the consequences of activating or disabling search engines in the settings are and why one is not allowed to disable all search engines. If this setting really just controls which search engines are displayed in the chart, then why is one not allowed to disabled all of them? Also it would be interesting to have information on where and how the plugin stores information, in which format and how this can be accessed by other plugins in a central place. Please consider explaining such things better. Thank you!"}}
