| This is a Make OpenData.ch [[event:2013-03|2013 finance hackdays]] project with a focus on analyzing personal consumer data. We have started by aggregating shopping receipts available from the [[http://www.migros.ch/cumulus/de/|Cumulus]] incentive points program run by Migros, one of the largest supermarkets chains in the country and would be interested in expanding the concept to others. | This is a Make OpenData.ch [[event:2013-03|2013 finance hackdays]] project with a focus on analyzing personal consumer data.

| We believe that the data we help to collect while making purchases can be relevant and useful to us individual shoppers, and we want to try starting popular action to aggregate this (anonymously) with others in our community. Although it is unlikely that we will get broad access to this highly valuable data, we want to at least learn some of the same things that shops are already learning about us: what, when and where we make our purchases, what are the patterns, how do we compare. To get around commercial closed data policy, we can liberate, i.e. open our personal data by uploading it to a shared repository. | We believe that the data we help to collect while making purchases can be relevant and useful to us individual shoppers, and we want to try starting popular action to aggregate this (anonymously) with others in our community.

| We will obviously not try to collect any other person's data without their full cooperation, attempt to circumvent any of their security, or put any automated scraping/spidering in place. This requires clear statements and terms of use on the site. We are hoping to find a way to cooperate with the Cumulus program, and ensure that we do not abuse the allowances they have made that make this project possible. | We will obviously not try to collect any other person's data without their full cooperation, attempt to circumvent any of their security, or put any automated scraping/spidering in place.
