These governmental requests sought data access form 163,823 devices. Apple complied with 25,829, or 80 percent, of these requests. Apple explains that these device requests cover identifiers such as an Apple product’s serial number.
Most device data requests received by Apple were from Germany. The country issued 13,704 data requests, 42 percent of the total number of queries, covering 26,160 devices. The United States came in with the second most requests, a total of 4,570 requests spanning 14,911 devices. Apple complied with 3,697, or 81 percent, of the data requests made by the U.S.
The report breaks out interesting details behind some of these stats. For example, a high number of requests from Germany and South Korea were due to stolen device investigations. Many of the requests from China are were also due to insurance fraud investigations.
In addition to device requests, a total of 4,177 account requests for 40,641 devices were made from countries around the world. This number is up 25 percent from the previous period. These account requests are based on information such as a user’s Apple ID or email address, according to Apple. These queries may also include a request for the content data, such as photos, email, or contacts, connected with the account.
While the U.S. made the most account requests with 2,397 requests covering 16,416 accounts, the jump in the overall number is due to a rise in data requests from China. China sought data on 19,908 accounts with just 33 requests. Most of the requests from China were involving fraud investigations. The U.S. requests were also due to extortion and suspected unauthorized account access/phishing investigations.

The company has previously combined the two since it first reported them in 2014.
Apple received 0 to 499 National Security Letter requests on 1,000 to 1,499 accounts. The company only provides a range in number of requests as required by law. There is also a legally required six-month reporting delay on FISA requests. Apple will include that data in its transparency report after Dec. 31.
