DJI Data Leakage
This page will contain examples of where information “leaks” in ways that is unexpected to DJI consumers. Note also another page that will contain information on the terms of service that are accepted as part of using the DJI ecosystem.
Kilometers flown
A user posting on the DJI forum has the distance flown with their linked DJI profile displayed against every forum post. The DJI privacy policy for the DJI GO app does not permit this disclosure. Flight logs being uploaded to the “cloud” are done so with the intent being PRIVATE data synchronisation to allow multiple devices to have the same data.
Any information that you voluntarily choose to upload to a publicly accessible site or venue using DJI Products and Services (including sharing information on SkyPixel, DJI+ Discover App or on DJI’s online community forum, the “DJI Forum”), or that you elect to make public, will be available to anyone who has access to that content, including other users.
This policy is the closest one that relates to this provided data. The sharing of kilometres traveled from sync'd flight logs breaches DJI's privacy policy
Disclosure of DJI sales history
Imagine you are an Amazon customer… and you purchased all sorts of things over an extended period. Imagine you then posted something in an amazon support forum… and when your forum post is published, anyone reading it could see your amazon purchase history. Would chat be a concern?
Not according to DJI. Any user who posts in the DJI forum will have their past sales history disclosed against their forum posts. There is an icon for each product owned, that is displayed against the user profile in each post. Disclosing sales records is to be blunt a serious concern, and not permitted under the terms of the DJI privacy policy.
Skypixel
- A user who shares content to say a private Facebook page also has their content uploaded to skypixel. There is no way to turn this off. DJI Forum Report and this DJI Forum Report
