Analytics and Privacy

Borg UI has optional product analytics.

It is used to understand broad product usage and error patterns. It should not include backup contents, Borg repository contents, passphrases, SSH keys, private hostnames, private IP addresses, or raw repository paths.

Analytics starts on. A banner after first login asks whether to keep it, and declining stops it from that point, though page views from before the answer are counted. Users can change the setting later in Settings > Preferences.

Disable

Open Settings > Preferences and turn analytics off.

If analytics is disabled or preferences cannot be loaded, tracking is skipped.
