I’m pretty principled. I block as much tracking as I can in my personal use of the web because what I do isn’t anyone’s business but my own. So, the idea that I have to put trackers on my site is pretty noxious to me, and I have thus far refused.
This isn’t an ad and I don’t want my personal account associated with my business, so no URLs, but I would like to know what you all think: is this something worthwhile that people will appreciate, or am I letting my principles guide me off a cliff because nobody cares that much?
That may make sense for the improvement of the restaurant. That data serves a purpose and has a life cycle. It is ok if you process it in an anonymous way and delete it once you are done making over the restaurant.
By no means should it be acceptable to keep it forever for “just in case” nor sharing it. If you are an interiors decorator and your life is designing restaurants, I do not think you need the data to take lessons learnt to other restaurants. Just take a look at your previous designs
