This page provides information on the Chaos Improvement Program for Chaos Vantage.
Overview
The Chaos Improvement Program is based on telemetry. It allows Chaos to track general usage statistics. The type of information collected includes the parameter values that people use most often, which will enable Chaos to optimize and improve the performance of Chaos Vantage. No intelligence property is violated.
The collected data is sent when Chaos Vantage is closed, and it is stored locally in vantage.message.log files viewable with a text editor. The files can be found in the temp folder C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\ChaosGroup\telemetry
Enable Chaos Telemetry
Once Vantage is successfully installed, you are invited to participate in the Chaos Improvement Program. By choosing to participate you can contribute to the improvement decisions for the future versions of Vantage.
Your participation involves sharing anonymized telemetry, with the option to enable personalized telemetry too.
With Anonymized Telemetry, you share data on frequently used features and parameter values without any personally identifiable information. With Personalized Telemetry, you share the same data as with Anonymized Telemetry, along with information tied to your user license, enabling Chaos to further optimize the product for your specific use.
Chaos Telemetry
The Chaos Telemetry settings can be changed at any time in Chaos Vantage. They can be accessed through Edit > Preferences > Chaos Telemetry tab.
In addition, anonymized telemetry usage can be enabled or disabled with the CHAOS_VANTAGE_SEND_FEEDBACK and the personalized telemetry usage can be enabled or disabled with the CHAOS_VANTAGE_SEND_PERSONALIZED_FEEDBACK environment variables.
