Using telemetry

Use the Telemetry page to see reports on important platform details and metrics.

The report contains technical information for a technical audience.

Deleting reports

The system automatically deletes reports older than 90 days. It deletes all reports, regardless of the user that created them. You cannot manually delete reports.

Understanding the time window

Every report covers a time window:

Reports that NOW Privacy generates cover a time window of 30 days
Reports that a user generates cover either 30 days or a custom time window

For most of the tabs in the report, the data shows the status at the moment when the report was generated.

On the Search Statistics and User Statistics tabs, most of the data relates to the time window for the report.
