Isnt the problem that we have to log whats happening in the system so it can be exported later? Even when not tracked via action logs that data is still in the system but not in a format that can be exported when requested?

You don't have to log, I mean there is a possibility to disable logging?

Yes for sites not falling under GDPR, but I could be wrong too. When you will disable the setting the same data is recorded so the question would be what you export when requested according to GDPR. ;⁠-⁠)

When we are not required it should be disabled by default in order to practice dataminimisation.

Ok, imagine as super admin you want to have the user log on for registered users, but you don't want the logs for super admins. How to solve that?

I do get your point and i'm not against adding such a feature. When its required that we have to collect that data it would be required for super admins too as they can request thier data too. And to check whats happening the actions of an super user is more interesting than a regular user ;⁠-⁠)

When its not legally required that we collect that data an DNT setting can be added not sure what that data is worth than but that for others to decide, if aviable i personally would also set that setting to "Do not track" by default for all users.

But I'm not sure who can tell us whether that collection is required or not.

@zero-24 Data Privacy/Protection lawyer, I suspect

This can be formulated the other

Yes could be also the other way around: only track superusers and not regular users

Yes i know thats why i asked whether we have to when we have not to log something for every user but still be compliant go and add that option and set it tonnot that by default :⁠-⁠)

@zero-24 personally no. Id suggest using Google for this.

When this issue will be accepted:
Perhaps a middle way can be found so that user actions can at least continue to be logged anonymously ("DO-NOT-TRACK-USER"). I, for example, am not one of those people who need to know specifically who changed or did what, but when something was done or whether something was done. For different purposes on different sites.
