Issue
We don't want to track our user's geolocations for GDPR reasons, but it seems that Sentry still determines the user's location based on their IP address.
Applies To
- All customers
Resolution
By default, Sentry will derive geographic context (e.g., city, region, country) from the IP addresses associated with events. For organizations with strict data privacy requirements, especially under GDPR, this behavior might not be acceptable.
Open the Security & Privacy settings of your project, and at the "Additional Sensitive Fields" above the options for advanced data scrubbing, add the following list - make sure to leave the new line after every entry, and please give our server about 5 to 15 minutes to register the change.
city
subdivision
region
country_code
