Building Websites That Protect User Privacy:
With the dangers of surveillance increasingly a concern, now is a great time to talk about how to build websites that protect user privacy, including avoiding sharing website visitor traffic outside of your organization. You have architected a Drupal website to store data securely with Drupal’s robust permissions, access checks and security best practices. However, your website loads third party scripts, which can share your visitor traffic with one or more outside organizations. Why build a highly secure website, while also sharing all your visitors’ traffic outside your organization? Unless your organization’s business model relies on ads, it’s entirely possible to build your website in a way that avoids sharing your website visitor traffic with third parties.
