Essentially, the only way to be 100% confident that your chart tool API is not uploading data somewhere else is to build your own, or get an open source API that you can examine the source code of to verify.
To give a more direct answer, if someone inserted malicious code into the Google API that uploaded the displayed data to another location, AFAIK there is no way to detect and stop that upload from happening. If you don't trust Google to not steal your data or to not protect its API from hackers who would modify it to steal your data, then you shouldn't use the Visualization API. The same goes for any other 3rd-party API. On Tuesday, September 3, 2013 1:51:12 PM UTC-4, Jeff Vojtko wrote: > > I understand sniffing the network.
