Transparency reporting is the practice of organizations, especially in the tech industry, sharing information about their operations, policies, and data handling. This includes details on how they respond to government requests for user data, the number of requests received, and the types of data disclosed. The goal is to build trust with users by being open about their practices. Many companies, such as Google and Facebook, publish regular transparency reports to inform the public about their compliance with laws and regulations. These reports help users understand how their information is managed and the extent of government surveillance, promoting accountability and ethical standards in data privacy.
