title: "Telemetry"
description: "Understanding Pangolin's anonymous usage data collection"
---
Pangolin collects anonymous usage telemetry to help us understand how the software is used and guide future improvements and feature development.
## What We Collect
The telemetry system collects **anonymous, aggregated data** about your Pangolin deployment. For example:
- **System metrics**: Number of sites, users, resources, and clients
- **Usage patterns**: Resource types, protocols, and SSO configurations
- **Performance data**: Site traffic volumes and online status
- **Deployment info**: App version and installation timestamp
## Privacy & Anonymity
**No personal information is ever collected or transmitted.** All data is:
- **Anonymized**: Identifying info is hashed using SHA-256
- **Non-identifying**: Cannot be used to identify specific users or organizations
## Configuration
You can control telemetry collection in your `config.yml`:
```yaml
app:
telemetry:
anonymous_usage: true # Set to false to disable
```
## What This Helps
Anonymous usage data helps us:
- Identify popular features and usage patterns
- Prioritize development efforts
- Improve performance and reliability
- Make Pangolin better for everyone
If you have concerns about telemetry collection, you can disable it entirely by setting `anonymous_usage: false` in your configuration.
