The number of government requests Apple received by request type (Device, Financial Identifier, Account, Push Token and Emergency). Requests can be in various formats such as subpoenas, court orders, warrants, or other valid legal requests. We count each individual request by request type and report the total number of requests received by request type.
The number of identifiers specified in the requests. One request may contain one or multiple identifiers. We count the number of identifiers identified in each request and report the total number of identifiers by type (Device, Financial Identifier, Account, Push Token).
The number of requests that resulted in Apple providing data, such as customers associated with a specific device/account/financial transaction, connection logs, service, purchase or repair information in response to a valid legal request. We count each request where we provide data and report the total number of such instances by type (Device, Financial Identifier, Account, Push Token, or Emergency).
The percentage of requests that resulted in Apple providing data. We calculate this based on the number of requests by type (Device, Financial Identifier, Account, Push Token, or Emergency) that resulted in Apple providing data compared to the total number of requests Apple received.
