Tetra Phone Home Telemetry

The Tetra Phone Home Telemetry (PHT) feature speeds up the collection of information and resolution of technical issues. All TDP deployments will, by default, periodically send configuration and usage information back to TetraScience. Collected information will be used for the following purposes:

  • TetraScience support teams will use this data to help support customers when debugging issues.
  • TetraScience teams will use this data to understand product usage in an effort to improve user experience.

Note that TetraScience will NOT include any proprietary information or data. The following types of information will NOT be collected or will be obfuscated:

  • File names
  • File content
  • Directory names
  • Pipeline/Protocol parameter values
  • Pipeline trigger condition values
  • Metadata, Tag, and Label values

The following is a sampling of the information that will be collected.
