Data Collection in the Plugin

The plugin collects usage metrics to populate the Dashboard with statistical data related to accessibility and interaction.

This data is used exclusively for analytical and statistical purposes, as described in the platform's terms of use. No personally identifiable information (PII) is stored.

By default, the plugin operates with data collection enabled. This means that when users interact with the translator and accessibility features, the following data is collected:

Collected Metrics

  • Users (total count)
  • Use of accessibility features
  • Most used accessibility resources
  • Most accessed pages
  • Total users by location
  • Users by device
  • Number of translations performed
tip

No personally identifiable information is stored. Data is aggregated and used exclusively for statistical purposes.


How to Disable Data Collection (doNotTrack Mode)

The only way to disable metric collection in the plugin is by setting the doNotTrack parameter directly in the implementation.

This parameter cannot be configured via Remote Configuration.

It must be defined at the root of the HT constructor initialization:

<script src="https://plugin.handtalk.me/web/latest/handtalk.min.js"></script>
<script>
let ht = new HT({
token: "TOKEN",
doNotTrack: true
});
</script>

When doNotTrack is set to true, the plugin enters non-tracking mode, preventing usage metrics from being sent to the Dashboard.

warning

Even with doNotTrack: true, the Total words translated data continues to be processed by the translation service (API) and stored for operational control purposes.

This data does not represent navigation behavior tracking.
