Does chart.xkcd Have A Privacy Policy?

[dm-p]

I've observed that the library doesn't collect/send any data but wondered if it might be useful to add a privacy policy confirming this for sure in the documentation/readme?

This is a pure frontend lib and does not collect/send any data.

But I am not familiar with Privacy Policy, do you have any example repo with similar privacy policy documentation?

I'm developing a wrapper for chart.xkcd for Power BI and it's nearly ready, so I'm just working on the documentation and thought I'd better add one so juct wante to confirm my thinking - I had reviewed the code and was happy that it didn't collect anything.

As an exmaple, I'll provide you with one of mine - here's a custom visual I already have in production for Power BI. Privacy policies can potentially much more complicated than this if they do collect data, but this one is what most people would be keen to be assured of when using a product.

As Power BI visuals are written in TypeScript and there's potential for other server-side stuff to be added in there, users generally like some assurance in terms of a privacy policy. While the code is open source, most people using Power BI are not familiar with JS/TS and will not have the capability to vet this themselves, so it is a common question asked of custom visual developers.

I'll be providing this confirmation from my side for the solution and your above comment from yourself is all I need to confirm the visual - as a full solution - doesn't do anything other that use data for display purposes.

Thanks so much for responding, and thanks so much for a great library! I'll be sure to send you the repo when it's ready, or add it to #14, if that's okay?

@dm-p That's ok, thanks
