\title Managing Data Collection Settings
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
When you install \QC as a part of Qt installation, you are asked whether
|
||||||
|
you allow it to collect pseudonymous information about your system and \QC
|
||||||
|
use. If you decline, the plugin is not installed and no analytics data is
|
||||||
|
collected.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you accept, all collected and transmitted data is fully transparent to
|
||||||
|
you. You can change the settings for collecting and transmitting data any
|
||||||
|
time. By default, no data is collected and you have to select a telemetry
|
||||||
|
mode for data collection to begin.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
\section1 Principles of Data Collection
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The Telemetry plugin uses the
|
||||||
|
\l{https://api.kde.org/frameworks/kuserfeedback/html/index.html}
|
||||||
|
{KUserFeedback} framework to collect the usage data. The library
|
||||||
|
has been designed from the user data privacy point of view and
|
||||||
|
\QC respects the same privacy rules.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
No personal data, such as names, IP addresses, MAC addresses, or project
|
||||||
|
and path names are collected. However, QUuid objects are used to identify
|
||||||
|
data records that belong to one user. The objects cannot be converted
|
||||||
|
back to the actual values from which they were generated.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The data is transmitted to the backend storage using an encrypted
|
||||||
|
connection. The storage is located in the same Heroku backend as the
|
||||||
|
Qt installer backend. Physically, data is stored in the Amazon cloud.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
\section1 Specifying Telemetry Settings
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To determine what data is transmitted to the backend storage:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
\list 1
|
||||||
|
\li Select \uicontrol Tools > \uicontrol Options > \uicontrol Telemetry
|
||||||
|
> \uicontrol {Usage Statistics}.
|
||||||
|
\image qtcreator-telemetry-settings.png
|
||||||
|
\li In the \uicontrol {Telemetry mode} list, select the mode that
|
||||||
|
determines what kind of data is collected.
|
||||||
|
\li In the \uicontrol {Data sources} list, select entries to view
|
||||||
|
exactly what data is collected. Deselect check boxes for data
|
||||||
|
that you do not want to transmit to the backend storage.
|
||||||
|
\endlist
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

||||||

||||||
|
