Amazon collects telemetry to improve the performance, reliability, and usability of its Vega SDK developer tools. Usage data helps Amazon identify issues, prioritize improvements, and deliver a better developer experience. The Vega SDK and its packaged tools collect telemetry by default. This collection includes command usage, system information (such as OS and architecture), and runtime errors. Telemetry data does not include personally identifiable information. It may include machine-level and project-level identifiers (such as app_id) that identify your app. You can opt out at any time as described in How to opt out of telemetry collection. If telemetry remains enabled, data is collected in the background without additional prompts. For a full list of telemetry collected, see Types of telemetry collected from Vega SDK. For more information about how Amazon uses personal information, see Amazon’s Privacy Notice.
