Data Collection & Usage#

What data is being collected and how is it used?

Omniverse collects usage data when you install and start interacting with our software. The data we collect and how we use it are as follows:

  • Installation and configuration details such as version of your Operating System and Omniverse applications installed - This allows us to recognize usage trends and patterns

  • Hardware Details such as CPU, GPU, and display resolution - This allows us to optimize settings to provide best-in-class performance

  • Network configuration (Network speed) - This allows us to optimize to improve your experience

  • Product session and feature usage - This allows us to understand your user journey and product interaction to further enhance workflows

  • Error and crash logs - This allows us to improve performance & stability for troubleshooting and diagnostic purposes of our software

How can I change my data collection settings when using Omniverse Kit containers?

NVIDIA Omniverse Kit Containers collect anonymous usage data to help improve software performance and aid diagnostic purposes. No personally identifiable information such as email addresses or names is collected.

To stop telemetry data from being sent to NVIDIA, remove the omni.kit.telemetry extension from your container and remove it as a dependency from your .kit file. If it remains listed as a dependency, the extension will be re-downloaded on next launch.

Note

Only legacy structured log telemetry (sent via the omni.kit.telemetry extension) is transmitted to NVIDIA. OpenTelemetry (OTel) output is never sent to NVIDIA — it is purely for your own use.

For more information and advanced configuration options, see Omniverse Telemetry.
