Tracker data for tracktor.it
Testing records
You can run the script locally. To do so, first install Node.js and npm. In the repository folder, run npm i
to grab all necessary dependencies.
To use it manually, simply run npm test
.
Data formats
The tracker data is located in the tracker folder. Every tracker in our database is represented by a single JSON file (named after the slug in the JSON). The JSON has to follow the schema specified in the schema-tracker.json file.
The supervisory-authorities
folder contains data on supervisory data protection authorities. They are structured similarly to the tracker records, following the schema in the schema-supervisory-authorities.json
file.
Required elements
If we know from previous requests (or from a privacy policy) which identification information is needed for requests to a company, we record that under the required-elements
key.
If required_elements
are specified, there should be one element with type name
. This does not have to be a real name but could also be a username or even an email address, if no other information is required.
In addition, the required_elements
should include some way for the company to respond to the request, be it an address, an email address, a phone number or something similar.
