Yes, removed it ages ago. Was trying this new analytics startup, never worked out though.
Also I enquired about the privacy issue in Google Analytics, only thing I got was: - "Google tracks that visit via the user's IP address in order to determine the user's approximate geographic location."
I am using is custom events. Lets say I do not use Google-Analytics but my own server who just record custom events (anonymized IP Addresses) then the app will be considered private and secure.
Read Privacy Issue section on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Analytics#Privacy_issues.
What I feel from all these is - it is justified to call the app secure as its about the user data, not anonymized behaviour analysis. That is only for app improvement, and independent of a particular person (ie. privacy).
Hahaha... No, of course it will not be. No app with phone-home analytics is private.
If we look at any authentic reference (Ex: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Analytics#Privacy_issues) we will find only when an app associates behaviour-analytics with attributes such as IP Addresses and Geolocation data, it may debate privacy issues, otherwise not.
If you see the word 'privacy', it only activates when an individual is being talked about. There are no specific users on this app, no email id, no unique id. All requests are considered similar irrespective of origin.
As for your claim of "no unique id", this is simply false. Google Analytics keeps track of an unique id for each user, they can tell you the count of unique visitors after all.
When you're boasting about privacy, do not track your users. What else are you meaning to imply with "privacy"? That the notes are not being sent to your server? Well, I goddamn hope so. Is there anything that makes your app more private than any other?
To put it bluntly, I don't give a flying f%ck about this. You said "private" and then your app phoned home behind my back - you outright lied to me. There's one definition of privacy, doubly so for people who actually care about it, and it doesn't come with weasel caveats like yours. So that one star you got is wholly justified and you should really listen to what people here are telling you, because that's exactly the feedback you are not getting from people giving you 1 star in the Chrome store.
In the end it's all really simple - either remove analytics from the app or remove "private" from its description.
Analytics aggregate data are just the strawman. Note data WAS in fact being recorded from individual users and sent to Inspectlet servers.
Could you tell us more about the "new analytics startup"? It seems like that's the code the reviewer was referring to (which you have said is no longer there in the extension)
