| 1 | +# Scope Telemetry |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +Scope can collect anonymous usage data to help us improve the app. Telemetry |
| 4 | +is **off by default** — you choose whether to enable it during first launch or |
| 5 | +in Settings. This page documents exactly what is collected, how to opt in, and |
| 6 | +how identity works. |
| 7 | + |
| 8 | +**Last updated:** 2026-03-23 |
| 9 | + |
| 10 | +## What We Collect |
| 11 | + |
| 12 | +We track UI interactions and feature usage patterns. Every event is an explicit |
| 13 | +`track()` call in the source code — no auto-capture, no session replay. |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +### What Is NOT Collected |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | +- Prompt text or any user-generated creative content |
| 18 | +- Generated images or video frames |
| 19 | +- File paths (local or remote) |
| 20 | +- Model file names or specific LoRA names |
| 21 | +- IP addresses (disabled in Mixpanel SDK config) |
| 22 | +- Window position or screen arrangement |
| 23 | +- Clipboard content |
| 24 | +- Individual keystrokes or mouse movements |
| 25 | +- Specific error messages (only error categories) |
| 26 | + |
| 27 | +## How to Enable / Disable |
| 28 | + |
| 29 | +Telemetry is off by default. You can enable it during first launch when |
| 30 | +prompted, or at any time in Settings. |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +### 1. Settings Toggle (UI) |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | +Open **Settings > General > Privacy** and toggle **"Send anonymous usage |
| 35 | +data"** on or off. Takes effect immediately — no restart required. |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | +### 2. Environment Variable (Scope-specific) — Force Disable |
| 38 | + |
| 39 | +```bash |
| 40 | +SCOPE_TELEMETRY_DISABLED=1 daydream-scope |
| 41 | +``` |
| 42 | + |
| 43 | +### 3. Environment Variable (Global Convention) |
| 44 | + |
| 45 | +```bash |
| 46 | +DO_NOT_TRACK=1 daydream-scope |
| 47 | +``` |
| 48 | + |
| 49 | +This follows the [Console Do Not Track](https://consoledonottrack.com/) |
| 50 | +convention used by Next.js, Astro, Gatsby, and others. |
| 51 | + |
| 52 | +### Precedence |
| 53 | + |
| 54 | +`SCOPE_TELEMETRY_DISABLED` > `DO_NOT_TRACK` > UI setting > default (OFF). |
| 55 | + |
| 56 | +If an environment variable disables telemetry, the Settings toggle shows as |
| 57 | +disabled with a note explaining why. |
| 58 | + |
| 59 | +## Identity |
| 60 | + |
| 61 | +- **Anonymous by default:** On first launch, Scope generates a random device ID |
| 62 | + (UUID v4) stored in localStorage. All events use this anonymous ID. |
| 63 | +- **Linked on login:** If you sign in to a Daydream account, events are linked |
| 64 | + to your Daydream user ID so we can see the journey from website to app. On |
| 65 | + logout, tracking reverts to the anonymous device ID. |
| 66 | +- **No cross-device tracking:** The device ID is local to your machine. |
| 67 | + |

| 166 | +## Technical Details |
| 167 | + |
| 168 | +- **SDK:** [Mixpanel Browser SDK](https://developer.mixpanel.com/docs/javascript-quickstart) |
| 169 | +- **Persistence:** localStorage |
| 170 | +- **IP collection:** Disabled (`ip: false`) |
| 171 | +- **Auto-capture:** Disabled — every event is an explicit `track()` call |
| 172 | +- **Debouncing:** Continuous inputs (sliders, search) are debounced at 2 seconds |
| 173 | +- **Pre-disclosure queue:** Events generated before the user sees the telemetry |
| 174 | + disclosure are queued in memory. If the user accepts, they're sent. If they |
| 175 | + decline, they're dropped. |
| 176 | + |
| 177 | +## Source Code |
| 178 | + |
| 179 | +All tracking calls are in the open-source codebase. Search for `trackEvent(` |
| 180 | +or `track(` in the `frontend/src/` directory to see every event. |
| 181 | + |
| 182 | +The telemetry module lives at `frontend/src/lib/telemetry.ts`. |
