Disclosed are techniques for determining data relationships between privacy-restricted datapoints, sourced over a computer network, which require data privacy measures concealing at least some datapoints from other clients in the network that the datapoint respectively do not originate from. A first client encrypts a first datapoint with a public key of a public/private encryption scheme and communicates it to the second client along with the public key. The second client encrypts a corresponding second datapoint with the public key, then determines a relationship between the two encrypted datapoints, and communicates the determined relationship to a central client along with the public key. Random noise is encrypted by the central client and added to the determined relationship, then sent together to the first client, followed by decryption by the first client using the private key. The central client extracts the random noise after receiving the decrypted determined relationship.
