Data minimization: user profile fields #26

Open mkberntsen opened 4 years ago

mkberntsen commented 4 years ago

We should go through our data collection and adjust user profile fields accordingly:

Which of the profile fields have to be mandatory?
Can collection of some of the data be conditional (f.ex. address is only collected if they agree to be KANDU-members, etc)?
Are all necessary profile fields clearly marked as mandatory, and do we tell users why?
Are data collected in a consistent manner?

Possible changes:

Make address field optional, and required only for those who sign up for KANDU membership
Show fields like phone number, name etc. are marked as mandatory by a red asterisk
Review fields for social accounts (Skype etc).
Add 1-sentence explanations for why we collect the data, per field, with links to more in-depth privacy policy.

Edited to make it clear it is an enhancement suggestion as well.
