# Understand Usage Telemetry and Privacy

Review the data that the Salesforce Development plugin collects before you install it. Usage telemetry is enabled by default, and the plugin shows a disclosure the first time you use it.

Telemetry includes:

- Operating system information
- Plugin and tool usage and outcomes
- Plugin version
- AI coding agent or editor
- A persistent machine identifier
- Connected org ID
- General org type
- Coarse error categories

Telemetry doesn't include source code, org contents, file paths, credentials, or org names.

To inspect or change telemetry, run `/salesforce-development:telemetry status`, `/salesforce-development:telemetry off`, or `/salesforce-development:telemetry on`. For a persistent opt-out, set `SF_DISABLE_TELEMETRY=true` or `DO_NOT_TRACK=true`.

To report an issue or send feedback, [open an issue in the AI Skills repository](https://github.com/forcedotcom/sf-skills/issues). Remove credentials, org data, source code, and other sensitive information before you submit the issue.

For ambient output modes, deploy and delete guardrails, and opt-in auto-deploy for nonproduction orgs, see the [plugin configuration reference](https://github.com/forcedotcom/sf-skills/blob/main/plugins/builder/salesforce-development/docs/configuration.md).
