Data Explorer

Welcome to our new and improved Data Explorer, an interactive tool that allows for multiple views of the data we collect, including by company and service; by lens, a new view that represents a curated group of indicators that illuminate a specific topic area; and by scores over time.

Performance Over Time

Here we show the total scores of companies year-over-year since their inclusion in the ranking. Note that between 2019 and 2020 we expanded our methodology to include standards around targeted advertising and algorithmic systems. The expansion resulted in overall decline in total score for many of the companies in 2020.
