Re: [Flightgear-devel] Stats plane usage?

[<wo...@ka...>]

Hi,

just do not forget to explicitly inform the user about the data 
collection and their use.
Most important, think about inquiring their prior consent.
In Many Countries, laws require prior explicit consent (Opt-In).

Beware also how your collection operation might trigger and later stage, 
unwanted DII.
