Privacy and Data Collection

Learn what data the router collects and how to opt out

By default, the GraphOS Router or Apollo Router Core collects anonymous usage data to help us improve the product.

The router doesn't collect any personally identifiable information such as API keys, graph names, or file paths.

💡 TIP

To opt out of data collection, set the APOLLO_TELEMETRY_DISABLED environment variable to true in each environment where you run the router.

For more information on how this data is collected and used, see Apollo's privacy policy.

Unless you opt out, the router reports the following data:

The execution command that was run (excluding any identifiable arguments such as file-system paths or profile names)
The version of router that was executed
The configuration properties which have been referenced, but limited to types which could not contain personally identifiable information (e.g., certain scalar types; a property which is set to true not the value if it is a string)
A unique, anonymized machine identifier, which is the same for every command run on the same machine
A unique, anonymized session identifier, which is different for every command
The SHA-256 hash of the directory that router was executed from
The SHA-256 hash of the contents of the supergraph schema
The operating system router was executed on
The CI system router was executed on, if any
