Hello-
I would like to use Google Charts to repeatedly display data that may be sensitive, so i would like to be sure that the data is not sent out of my local network.
There are several supported chart types, and the documentation page for each has a “data policy” section that contains the message below for every chart type that I am using:
"
Data policy: All code and data are processed and rendered in the browser. No data is sent to any server.

This seems clear enough, but then I found this note at the URL below it.

 

“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.”

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


Can you tell me what data is sent each time a chart with the above data policy is rendered?
Thanks very much!

Hi,

I did a fairly thorough writeup of when data may be sent outside of the network here. I believe that that question in the FAQ is more pertinent to our deprecated image charts, which render a chart on the server, and therefore require the data to be sent to said server.

Please let us know if you have more questions.
