Does googlecharts have any dependency on google servers ?

Will it ever send data to google?

Thanks in advance!

See the Terms of Service for specifics.

In general, though, the Visualization API charts do not send any data to Google (see the Data Policy section for each chart type).

While most charts do not send any data to Google, the API is entirely dependent on Google's servers - you can't host it locally.

Thanks for the email.

But i could see something which contradicts the below email:

https://developers.google.com/chart/interactive/faq#logging

Is Google logging all my chart data?: The chart data included in the HTTP request is saved in temporary logs for no longer than two weeks for internal testing and debugging purposes. Of course you should understand that if your chart appears in an image tag on a public webpage, it could be crawled.

Can you please clarify on these

https://developers.google.com/chart/interactive/faq#logging vrs https://developers.google.com/chart/interactive/docs/gallery/areachart#Data_Policy

I want to use google charts for my dashboard. But due to security issues, i want to make sure that my data is not sent to server.

Thanks for your time.

The data logging occurs with the Image Charts (as the client browser sends data to Google's servers, they build an image with it, and send the image back to the browser). Most of the interactive charts do not send any data back to Google. Each individual chart has it's own Data Policy, however, so check there first. In the case of AreaCharts, they do not send any data back to Google.
