Data Privacy Issues to Be Aware of and How to Overcome Them
9 mai 2024, par ErinThese findings send a clear message : if companies want to build consumer trust, they must honour users’ data privacy concerns. The best way to do this is by adopting transparent, ethical data collection practices — which also supports the simultaneous goal of maintaining compliance with regional data privacy acts.
So what exactly is data privacy ?
Data privacy refers to the protections that govern how personal data is collected and used, especially with respect to an individual’s control over when, where and what information they share with others.
Data privacy also refers to the extent to which organisations and governments go to protect the personal data that they collect. Different parts of the world have different data privacy acts. These regulations outline the measures organisations must take to safeguard the data they collect from their consumers and residents. They also outline the rights of data subjects, such as the right to opt out of a data collection strategy and correct false data.
As more organisations rely on personal data to provide services, people have become increasingly concerned about data privacy, particularly the level of control they have over their data and what organisations and governments do with their data.
Why should organisations take data privacy issues seriously ?
Organisations should take data privacy seriously because consumer trust depends on it and because they have a legal obligation to do so. Doing so also helps organisations prevent threat actors from illegally accessing consumer data. Strong data privacy helps you :
Comply with data protection acts
Organisations that fail to comply with regional data protection acts could face severe penalties. For example, consider the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which is the primary data protection action for the European Union. The penalty system for GDPR fines consists of two tiers :
- Less severe infringements — Which can lead to fines of up to €10 million (or 2% of an organisation’s worldwide annual revenue from the last financial year) per infringement.
- More severe infringements — This can lead to fines of up to €20 million (or 4% of an organisation’s worldwide annual revenue from the last financial year) per infringement.
The monetary value of these penalties is significant, so it is in the best interest of all organisations to be GDPR compliant. Other data protection acts have similar penalty systems to the GDPR. In Brazil, organisations non-compliant with the Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados Pessoais (LGPD) could be fined up to 50 million reals (USD 10 million) or 2% of their worldwide annual revenue from the last financial year.
Improve brand reputation
Research shows that 81% of consumers feel that how an organisation treats their data reflects how they treat them as a consumer. This means a strong correlation exists between how people perceive an organisation’s data collection practices and their other business activities.
Data breaches can have a significant impact on an organisation, especially their reputation and level of consumer trust. In 2022, hackers stole customer data from the Australian private health insurance company, Medibank, and released the data onto the dark web. Optus was also affected by a cyberattack, which compromised the information of current and former customers. Following these events, a study by Nature revealed that 83 percent of Australians were concerned about the security of their data, particularly in the hands of their service providers.
Protect consumer data
Protecting consumer data is essential to preventing data breaches. Unfortunately, cybersecurity attacks are becoming increasingly sophisticated. In 2023 alone, organisations like T-Mobile and Sony have been compromised and their data stolen.
One way to protect consumer data is to retain 100% data ownership. This means that no external parties can see your data. You can achieve this with the web analytics platform, Matomo. With Matomo, you can store your own data on-premises (your own servers) or in the Cloud. Under both arrangements, you retain full ownership of your data.

What are the most pressing data privacy issues that organisations are facing today ?
Today’s most pressing data privacy challenges organisations face are complying with new data protection acts, maintaining consumer trust, and choosing the right web analytics platform. Here is a detailed breakdown of what these challenges mean for businesses.
Complying with new and emerging data protection laws
Ever since the European Union introduced the GDPR in 2018, other regions have enacted similar data protection acts. In the United States, California (CCPA), Virginia (VCDPA) and Colorado have their own state-level data protection acts. Meanwhile, Brazil and China have the General Data Protection Law (LGPD) and the Personal Information Protection Law (PIPL), respectively.
For global organisations, complying with multiple data protection acts can be tough, as each act interprets the GDPR model differently. They each have their own provisions, terminology (or different interpretations of the same terminology), and penalties.
A web analytics platform like Matomo can help your organisation comply with the GDPR and similar data protection acts. It has a range of privacy-friendly features including data anonymisation, IP anonymisation, and first-party cookies by default. You can also create and publish custom opt-out forms and let visitors view your collected data.

Maintaining consumer trust
Building (and maintaining) consumer trust is a major hurdle for organisations. Stories about data breaches and data scandals — notably the Cambridge Analytical scandal — instil fear into the public’s hearts. After a while, people wonder, “Which company is next ?”
One way to build and maintain trust is to be transparent about your data collection practices. Be open and honest about what data you collect (and why), where you store the data (and for how long), how you protect the data and whether you share data with third parties.
You should also prepare and publish your cyber incident response plan. Outline the steps you will take to contain, assess and manage a data breach.
Choosing the right web analytics platform
Organisations use web analytics to track and monitor web traffic, manage advertising campaigns and identify potential revenue streams. The most widely used web analytics platform is Google Analytics ; however, many users have raised concerns about privacy issues.
When searching for a Google Analytics alternative, consider a web analytics platform that takes data privacy seriously. Features like cookieless tracking, data anonymisation and IP anonymisation will let you track user activity without collecting personal data. Custom opt-out forms will let your web visitors enforce their data subject rights.
What data protection acts exist right now ?
As time goes on and more countries introduce their own data privacy laws, it becomes harder for organisations to adapt. Understanding the basics of each act can help streamline compliance. Here is what you need to know about the latest data protection acts.
General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
The GDPR is a data protection act created by the European Parliament and Council of the European Union. It comprises 11 chapters covering the general provisions, principles, data subject rights, penalties and other relevant information.
The GDPR established a framework for organisations and governments to follow regarding the collection, processing, storing, transferring and deletion of personal data. Since coming into effect on 25 May 2018, other countries have used the GDPR as a model to enact similar data protection acts.
General Data Protection Law (LGPD)
The LGPD is Brazil’s main data protection act. The Federal Republic of Brazil signed the act on August 14, 2018, and it officially commenced on August 16, 2020. The act aimed to unify the 40 Brazilian laws that previously governed the country’s approach to processing personal data.
Like the GDPR, the LGPD serves as a legal framework to regulate the collection and usage of personal data. It also outlines the duties of the national data protection authority, the Autoridade Nacional de Proteção de Dados (ANPD), which is responsible for enforcing the LGPD.
Privacy Amendment (Notifiable Data Breaches) for the Privacy Act 1988
Established by the Australian House of Representatives, the Privacy Act 1988 outlines how organisations and governments must manage personal data. The federal government has amended the Privacy Act 1988 twice — once in 2000, and again in 2014 — and is committing to a significant overhaul.
The new proposals will make it easier for individuals to opt out of data collection, organisations will have to destroy collected data after a reasonable period, and small businesses will no longer be exempt from the Privacy Act.
United States
The United States does not have a federally mandated data protection act. Instead, each state has been gradually introducing its data protection acts, with the first being California, followed by Virginia and Colorado. Over a dozen other states are following suit, too.
- California — The then-Governor of California Jerry Brown signed the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) into law on June 28, 2018. The act applies to organisations with gross annual revenue of more than USD 25 million, and that buy or sell products and services to 100,000 or more households or consumers.
- Virginia — The Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (VCDPA) took effect on January 1, 2023. It applies to organisations that process (or control) the personal data of 100,000 or more consumers in a financial year. It also applies to organisations that process (or control) the personal data of 25,000 or more consumers and gain more than 50% of gross revenue by selling that data.
- Colorado — Colorado Governor Jared Polis signed the Colorado Privacy Act (ColoPA) into law in July 2021. The act applies to organisations that process (or control) the personal data of 100,000 or more Colorado residents annually. It also applies to organisations that earn revenue from the sale of personal data of at least 25,000 Colorado residents.
Because the US regulations are a patchwork of differing legal acts, compliance can be a complicated endeavour for organisations operating across multiple jurisdictions.
How can organisations comply with data protection acts ?
One way to ensure compliance is to keep up with the latest data protection acts. But that is a very time-consuming task.
Over 16 US states are in the process of signing new acts. And countries like China, Turkey and Australia are about to overhaul — in a big way — their own data privacy protection acts.
Knowledge is power. But you also have a business to run, right ?
That’s where Matomo comes in.
Streamline data privacy compliance with Matomo
Although data privacy is a major concern for individuals and companies operating in multiple parts of the world — as they must comply with new, conflicting data protection laws — it is possible to overcome the biggest data privacy issues.
Matomo enables your visitors to take back control of their data. You can choose where you store your data on-premises and in the Cloud (EU-based). You can use various features, retain 100% data ownership, protect visitor privacy and ensure compliance.

Why does the frame count change when scaling with FFmpeg ?
22 octobre 2016, par ajmicekI use this to scale 1920x1080 H.264 videos :
ffmpeg -i IMG_1438.MOV -threads 2 -vf scale=-2:600 IMG_1438_scaledTo600.MOVAnd it works great ! But here is my question : most of the time, the frame rate stays exactly the same between the original file and the scaled file. For example :
$ mediainfo -F IMG_1426.MOV | grep Frame\ rate
Frame rate : 29.970
Frame rate : 29.970 FPS
Frame rate mode : VFR
Frame rate mode : Variable
Frame rate : 29.970
Frame rate : 29.970 (29970/1000) FPS
$ mediainfo -F IMG_1426_scaledTo600.MOV | grep Frame\ rate
Frame rate : 29.970
Frame rate : 29.970 FPS
Frame rate mode : CFR
Frame rate mode : Constant
Frame rate : 29.970
Frame rate : 29.970 (30000/1001) FPSBut sometimes, the frame rate increases dramatically :
$ mediainfo -F IMG_1438.MOV | grep Frame\ rate
Frame rate : 25.044
Frame rate : 25.044 FPS
Frame rate mode : VFR
Frame rate mode : Variable
Frame rate : 25.044
Frame rate : 25.044 FPS
$ mediainfo -F IMG_1438_scaledTo600.MOV | grep Frame\ rate
Frame rate : 120.000
Frame rate : 120.000 FPS
Frame rate mode : CFR
Frame rate mode : Constant
Frame rate : 120.000
Frame rate : 120.000 FPSWhat should I know about FFmpeg or libx264 or libswscale that will help me understand why this happens ? (Hoping to hear from LordNeckbeard, in particular).

To clarify : my video above, the one with the high framerate (120 FPS) output after scaling, plays perfectly before and after scaling with FFmpeg (no sync issues, and 120 FPS is only about 14% larger in file size), I am simply trying to understand why this increase in framerate happens (just a little beyond Mulvya’s note that the framerate stored in the container is wrong).From a programming perspective, the initial issue I ran into was that I was using
frame=from FFmpeg’s sterr console output to determine progress, which reports erroneous results when the frame count increases dramatically on output ("I’m 372% done encoding ?!") ; I have since read another stackoverflow answer and changed my code to usetime=, which appears to be a more robust way for me to display FFmpeg progress. (Also, there is FFmpeg’s-progressoption, of course).Improving on the original command
My new command to scale, preserve a useful framerate, and optimize threads :
ffmpeg -i IMG_1438.MOV -vf scale=-2:600 -r 30 -vsync 0 IMG_1438_scaledTo600.MOVWhere
30is the "Maximum frame rate" frommediainfo.Thanks to help in the comments, I now know I do not fully understand FFmpeg’s use of three different time bases for timestamps :
tbn,tbc, andtbr.
They were explained by Robert Swain in 2009 and his explanation was also used to answer a Stackoverflow question about tbn, tbc, tbr.It sounds to me, as I’m pulling together comments from Mulvya below and Michael Rampe at another forum, that
tbris guessed ; it is frequently but not always the best value to use when changing from a variable to a constant frame rate video.Which leaves these 2 questions...
(1)
tbris incorrect when "field rate and frame rate" differ ? Does this happen a lot ?
(2) Is-r 30where30is the maximum frame rate reported bymediainfothe best way to do it for most codec/container combinations ? (Or should I only use this method when I am scaling a H.264/MPEG-4 AVC video ?) -
How to create a widget – Introducing the Piwik Platform
4 septembre 2014, par Thomas Steur — DevelopmentThis is the next post of our blog series where we introduce the capabilities of the Piwik platform (our previous post was How to create a scheduled task in Piwik). This time you’ll learn how to create a new widget. For this tutorial you will need to have basic knowledge of PHP.
What is a widget in Piwik ?
Widgets can be added to your dashboards or exported via a URL to embed it on any page. Most widgets in Piwik represent a report but a widget can display anything. For instance a RSS feed of your corporate news. If you prefer to have most of your business relevant data in one dashboard why not display the number of offline sales, the latest stock price, or other key metrics together with your analytics data ?
Getting started
In this series of posts, we assume that you have already set up your development environment. If not, visit the Piwik Developer Zone where you’ll find the tutorial Setting up Piwik.
To summarize the things you have to do to get setup :
- Install Piwik (for instance via git).
- Activate the developer mode :
./console development:enable --full. - Generate a plugin :
./console generate:plugin --name="MyWidgetPlugin". There should now be a folderplugins/MyWidgetPlugin. - And activate the created plugin under Settings => Plugins.
Let’s start creating a widget
We start by using the Piwik Console to create a widget template :
./console generate:widgetThe command will ask you to enter the name of the plugin the widget should belong to. I will simply use the above chosen plugin name “MyWidgetPlugin”. It will ask you for a widget category as well. You can select any existing category, for instance “Visitors”, “Live !” or “Actions”, or you can define a new category, for instance your company name. There should now be a file
plugins/MyWidgetPlugin/Widgets.phpwhich contains already some examples to get you started easily :- class Widgets extends \Piwik\Plugin\Widgets
- {
- /**
- * Here you can define the category the widget belongs to. You can reuse any existing widget category or define your own category.
- * @var string
- */
- protected $category = 'ExampleCompany';
- /**
- * Here you can add one or multiple widgets. You can add a widget by calling the method "addWidget()" and pass the name of the widget as well as a method name that should be called to render the widget. The method can be defined either directly here in this widget class or in the controller in case you want to reuse the same action for instance in the menu etc.
- */
- protected function init()
- {
- $this->addWidget('Example Widget Name', $method = 'myExampleWidget');
- $this->addWidget('Example Widget 2', $method = 'myExampleWidget', $params = array('myparam' => 'myvalue'));
- }
- /**
- * This method renders a widget as defined in "init()". It's on you how to generate the content of the widget. As long as you return a string everything is fine. You can use for instance a "Piwik\View" to render a twig template. In such a case don't forget to create a twig template (eg. myViewTemplate.twig) in the "templates" directory of your plugin.
- *
- * @return string
- */
- public function myExampleWidget()
- {
- $view = new View('@MyWidgetPlugin/myViewTemplate');
- return $view->render();
- }
- }
As you might have noticed in the generated template we put emphasis on adding comments to explain you directly how to continue and where to get more information. Ideally this saves you some time and you don’t even have to search for more information on our developer pages. The category is defined in the property
$categoryand can be changed at any time. Starting from Piwik 2.6.0 the generator will directly create a translation key if necessary to make it easy to translate the category into any language. Translations will be a topic in one of our future posts until then you can explore this feature on our Internationalization guide.A simple example
We can define one or multiple widgets in the
initmethod by callingaddWidget($widgetName, $methodName). To do so we define the name of a widget which will be seen by your users as well as the name of the method that shall render the widget.protected $category = 'Example Company';
public function init()
{
// Registers a widget named 'News' under the category 'Example Company'.
// The method 'myCorporateNews' will be used to render the widget.
$this->addWidget('News', $method = 'myCorporateNews');
}
public function myCorporateNews()
{
return file_get_contents('http://example.com/news');
}This example would display the content of the specified URL within the widget as defined in the method
myCorporateNews. It’s on you how to generate the content of the widget. Any string returned by this method will be displayed within the widget. You can use for example a View to render a Twig template. For simplification we are fetching the content from another site. A more complex version would cache this content for faster performance. Caching and views will be covered in one of our future posts as well.
Did you know ? To make your life as a developer as stress-free as possible the platform checks whether the registered method actually exists and whether the method is public. If not, Piwik will display a notification in the UI and advice you with the next step.
Checking permissions
Often you do not want to have the content of a widget visible to everyone. You can check for permissions by using one of our many convenient methods which all start with
\Piwik\Piwik::checkUser*. Just to introduce some of them :// Make sure the current user has super user access
\Piwik\Piwik::checkUserHasSuperUserAccess();
// Make sure the current user is logged in and not anonymous
\Piwik\Piwik::checkUserIsNotAnonymous();And here is an example how you can use it within your widget :
public function myCorporateNews()
{
// Make sure there is an idSite URL parameter
$idSite = Common::getRequestVar('idSite', null, 'int');
// Make sure the user has at least view access for the specified site. This is useful if you want to display data that is related to the specified site.
Piwik::checkUserHasViewAccess($idSite);
$siteUrl = \Piwik\Site::getMainUrlFor($idSite);
return file_get_contents($siteUrl . '/news');
}In case any condition is not met an exception will be thrown and an error message will be presented to the user explaining that he does not have enough permissions. You’ll find the documentation for those methods in the Piwik class reference.
How to test a widget
After you have created your widgets you are surely wondering how to test it. First, you should write a unit or integration test which we will cover in one of our future blog posts. Just one hint : You can use the command
./console generate:testto create a test. To manually test a widget you can add a widget to a dashboard or export it.Publishing your Plugin on the Marketplace
In case you want to share your widgets with other Piwik users you can do this by pushing your plugin to a public GitHub repository and creating a tag. Easy as that. Read more about how to distribute a plugin.
Advanced features
Isn’t it easy to create a widget ? We never even created a file ! Of course, based on our API design principle “The complexity of our API should never exceed the complexity of your use case.” you can accomplish more if you want : You can clarify parameters that will be passed to your widget, you can create a method in the Controller instead of the Widget class to make the same method also reusable for adding it to the menu, you can assign different categories to different widgets, you can remove any widgets that were added by the Piwik core or other plugins and more.
