Collect less. Explain the purpose. Ask before going deeper.

Current data principles

SCOUTz is designed around purpose limitation, authorized access, minimum necessary collection, source transparency, and separation of public evidence from consented tenant data.

The practical boundary

Public domain evidence stays separate from customer-approved cloud evidence. SCOUTz favors configuration and metadata over content and does not treat unavailable evidence as a clean result.

Website experience analytics

On scoutzsecurity.io, Plausible and Google Analytics measure traffic and content trends. Microsoft Clarity helps us find navigation friction through heatmaps and masked session recordings. These tools measure the public website only; they are not used inside customer cloud reviews, and form fields or other sensitive page content remain masked under the service configuration.

Plausible, Google, and Microsoft process website-usage data under their respective privacy terms. Browser and network controls may limit collection.
