The Jint Analytics dashboard allows you to measure the adoption and usage of your SharePoint intranet: page visits, use of Jint components, user activity. To feed this data, Jint integrates a usage event collection mechanism, activated on SharePoint pages where Jint components are present.

This article presents, in an accessible way, what this mechanism collects, where the data is hosted, and the guarantees put in place for privacy protection.

What is Collected

The collection is exclusively about usage events generated by Jint components. It is limited to the information necessary to feed the Analytics dashboard.

For each visit to a SharePoint page containing Jint components, the following items are recorded:

• The site ID, its name, and the title of the visited page
• The URL of the page accessed
• The name of the Jint component used and its display context
• A timestamp
• The connection country (deduced from the server-side IP address)
• An anonymized user identifier (see below)

What is not collected:

• No personally identifiable information (name, first name, email address)
• No data from pages outside SharePoint pages where Jint components are present

Anonymization of User Identifiers

User identifiers are hashed before any transmission. This process is irreversible: it is impossible to retrieve a user’s identity from the stored data. This mechanism is consistent with the one described in the article Details of Data Stored by Jint.

Hosting and Compliance

Data is stored in Azure Application Insights, a Microsoft managed service operated by Jint, in the West Europe (Netherlands) region. The data does not leave the Microsoft Azure infrastructure and benefits from the guarantees associated with this region (GDPR, ISO 27001, SOC 2).

The retention period is 2 years (730 days), after which the data is automatically deleted.

Required Permissions

The collection mechanism requires no specific permissions. It runs in the standard SPFx context, without access to SharePoint lists or extended Microsoft Graph permissions.

Disabling and Control

Collection can be disabled or restricted to certain site collections via the SharePoint app catalog configuration. If you want to exclude certain sites from the collection scope, contact your Jint representative or the support team.

Technical Documentation for IT Teams

If you are an IT manager or CIO and want access to detailed technical documentation (collection architecture, data flows, details of transmitted events, deployment procedures), it is available upon request.
