Tyk AI Studio collects anonymized usage statistics to help improve the product and understand how features are being used.

Telemetry is not for your own monitoring. For metrics, traces, and health endpoints, refer to [Observability](https://tyk.io/docs/ai-management/ai-studio/observability.md).

## What Data is Collected

The telemetry system collects aggregate statistics every hour such as:

* **User counts** by type (admin, developer, chat users)
* **LLM model counts** and token usage
* **Application counts** and proxy usage
* **Chat counts** and interaction statistics
* **team counts**

**No personal data, content, or sensitive information is collected.**

## Privacy & Security

All data is **anonymized** before transmission to ensure user privacy. The system does **not collect any personally identifiable information (PII)**, and **no chat content, prompts, or responses** are ever transmitted.

Additionally, **API keys and credentials are never included** in telemetry data. To further protect privacy, instance identifiers are **hashed and rotated daily**. All telemetry data is securely transmitted over **HTTPS** to `https://telemetry.tyk.technology`.

## Disabling Telemetry

Telemetry is **enabled by default** but can be disabled by setting the following environment variable:

```bash theme={null}
TELEMETRY_ENABLED=false
```
