Exoplanets play an important role in understanding the mechanics of planetary system formation and orbital evolution. In this context the correlations of different parameters of the planets and their host star are useful guides in the search for explanatory mechanisms. Based on a reanalysis of the data set from \cite{figueria14} we study the as of now still poorly understood correlation between planetary surface gravity and stellar activity of Hot Jupiters. Unfortunately, data collection often suffers from measurement errors due to complicated and indirect measurement setups, rendering standard inference techniques unreliable. We present new methods to estimate and test for correlations in a deconvolution framework and thereby improve the state of the art analysis of the data in two directions. First, we are now able to account for additive measurement errors which facilitates reliable inference. Second we test for relevant changes, i.e. we are testing for correlations exceeding a certain threshold $Δ$. This reflects the fact that small nonzero correlations are to be expected for real life data almost always and that standard statistical tests will therefore always reject the null of no correlation given sufficient data. Our theory focuses on quantities that can be estimated by U-Statistics which contain a variety of correlation measures. We propose a bootstrap test and establish its theoretical validity. As a by product we also obtain confidence intervals. Applying our methods to the Hot Jupiter data set from \cite{figueria14}, we observe that taking into account the measurement errors yields smaller point estimates and the null of no relevant correlation is rejected only for very small $Δ$. This demonstrates the importance of considering the impact of measurement errors to avoid misleading conclusions from the resulting statistical analysis.
