Third Party Service Providers Transparency

Call to display your third party providers. Be transparent to each other!

I share one trick a day until (probably not) the end of the COVID-19 quarantine in Switzerland, April 19th 2020. Thirteen days left until hopefully better days.

I don’t know if you share my observation but I feel like currently we have reached a point in the Coronavirus crisis where every third news is either about another Zoom data breach or about a new solution or application which aims to solve and improve the current situation with the help of “anonymized cell phone geolocation data” or other behavioral data.

From a personal point of view, moreover than making me aware than once again I should pay attention to these subjects, these news also reminded me something small we had put in place in DeckDeckGo, our open source editor for presentations, and which I would like to share with you today.

Indeed, like most of the web platforms, we do have a privacy policy and terms of services, like some we are also open source and all our code is available publicly on GitHub but what we do have and, to my knowledge few also have, is a dedicated page where we summarize transparently all the third party service providers we are using to provide our solution.
