French translation:des identifiants de suivi qu'il serait possible d'associer à votre identité / à vous
Explanation:
I think it's better to add what is anyway already there implicitly:

linkable tracking ID = tracking ID that can be linked to your identity / that can be associated with your personal data / that can identify you indirectly / that can lead to disclosing your identity etc

excluding data components (such as your name, email address, or linkable tracking ID)

en excluant les éléments d'informations personnelles (tels que votre nom, votre courriel, des identifiants de suivi qu'il serait possible d'associer à votre identité / à vous // qui pourrait vous identifier indirectement ...


to make a "link" between two different sets of date = associer des données - samples aplenty

A "tracking ID" is N_E_V_E_R any kind of URL/ hyperlink - it's a kind of "ID number" used for attributing collected user data, so that the web activity of someone could be tracked and used for marketing purposes. Same as "third party cookies" are used to track user activity and the information is sold to advertisers.

The dream of marketers is know exactly WHO is doing WHAT on the Web, but often a "tracking ID" can at best be linked only to a specific computer or smartphone, not to a specific person, so ONLY some "tracking ID" are "linkable" to a specific person / to someone's personal identity" NO CHANCES of any kind of "hyperlinks" showing in his story!!!

The whole point of a "Privacy Policy" is (unsurprisingly?) in the legal aspects of protecting (or some cynics would say "pretending to protect") user's privacy.

A "tracking ID" that COULD be "linked" to someone's personal identity (=>"linkable ....") if passed to unintended/unauthorised third parties could be used to identify someone in a context when it's not allowed - like compiling aggregated data. - thus this company is saying on scout's honor they won't pass "linkable" tracking ID when selling data (IOW they will pass only "tracking IDs" that can not be linked to specific person)

a related story:

An X-Mode Social spokesperson said in a statement to Business Insider that the company complies with digital privacy laws including the recently-enacted CCPA, and that its data "is aggregated at the observation level and is not associated to a device identifier or physical person." That data doesn't include personal information like names, birth dates, gender, or contact information, the spokesperson said.

identifiant de suivi avec lequel on puisse/peut établir des liens/un lien


Explanation:
Une fois de plus, Linguee offre de bonnes options (des mauvaises pistes aussi, il faut se donner le temps de trier...).

Example sentence(s):
  • FR: en veillant à ce qu'aucun lien ne puisse être établi entre l'identité des participants à la recherche et les données...
  • EN : but the identity of research participants should not be linkable to their data

disagree  Daryo: just because for some reason Google keeps pushing Linguee on the top of search results doesn't make it any better. Anyway, this sounds unfinished - des liens / un lien AVEC QUOI?

agree  Antoine Dequidt: Votre exemple de traduction est meilleur que la traduction que vous proposez. Je pense qu'il aurait été préférable de la proposer. N'hésitez à s'éloigner de la forme du texte source en privilégiant le fond. cf. Umberto Eco "Dire presque la même chose"

  -> Merci Antoine. Raison pour laquelle j'ai cité cet exemple, qui coule de source, en effet. Si cela ne vous coûte rien en termes de temps, vous pourriez nous envoyer le lien vers la citation d'Umberto Eco ?
