Notes On Analytics

The analytics framework of UniFi Networking products collects two types of analytics data: personal data and other data.

When we first added the controller option for enabling analytics in 5.12.35, personal data and other data were not separated, so the feature either collected both personal and other data, or no data at all. We learned from the previous roll-out of analytics reporting that, even though users want to contribute to making products better, they are rightfully concerned about data privacy and the impact that it may have on their own business. As a result, we have separated the reporting of personal and other data, so that we can continue collecting valuable statistics that improve our products while keeping identifiable data out of the picture.

As of today, we are in the process of updating the analytics feature in UniFi Networking products to report personal data and other data separately. Once the products are updated, they will behave this way:

• If the controller option is enabled, analytics will send personal and other data.
• If the controller option is disabled, analytics will send other data.
• If the controller option is disabled and you use the custom config value, analytics will report no data.

In USW/UAP firmware 4.1.0 and newer, you can set the custom config value as follows: Use config.properties in the controller and setting system.analytics.anonymous to disabled. For example:
config.system_cfg.1=system.analytics.anonymous=disabled

Since we are in the process of making the above update, some UniFi Network products still follow the initial behavior of not separating personal data from other data (in which case the controller will enable/disable analytics entirely), but these products will be updated in future releases.
