Privacy dashboard
Introduction
The Privacy dashboard has a set of charts that show the most common data that people typically look at when exploring Privacy data.
You can drill down by clicking on a chart. For example, if you click Sensitive Data on the Categories of personal data chart, the dashboard changes; it will show only sensitive data.
Look at the breadcrumbs regularly. Breadcrumbs are your friends.
Total personal data
Shows basic statistics for the data currently displayed on the dashboard:
the total file size
the total number of items
As you drill down into the data by clicking on the charts, these figures change. They always represent the data the dashboard is currently showing.
All data
Pie chart showing how much of your data is personal data.
Think of personal data as data that describes a person. For example, a National ID number is personal data.
Non-personal data is data that does not directly describe a person. For example, a credit card number is non-personal data because it might be a corporate credit card.
A note about toggling
You can turn each segment of a pie chart on and off using the labels below the chart.
In this example, the chart has two segments: Sensitive Data and All other personal Data.
If you click All other personal Data, you remove it from the chart, leaving only Sensitive Data. If you click the label again, that segment returns to the chart.
This feature is particularly useful if a segment of a chart is very small compared to the other segments.
