Question regarding the new Enterprise-only "Analytics Opt-out" feature

While reviewing the new pricing model, I noticed that “Analytics Opt-out” is listed as an Enterprise feature.

I also found the TELEMETRY configuration option in the Directus documentation, which states that anonymized telemetry is enabled by default and sends data to telemetry.directus.io.

What I’m struggling to find is a clear explanation of what exactly is being collected.

Could somebody from the Directus team clarify:

  • What data is transmitted to telemetry.directus.io?
  • What fields are included in the payload?
  • Are collection counts included?
  • Are user counts included?
  • Are flow counts included?
  • Are any license-related metrics included?
  • Is telemetry required for license validation?
  • What exactly does the Enterprise-only “Analytics Opt-out” feature disable?

As someone building self-hosted solutions for clients and making explicit commitments regarding privacy and data minimization, I need to know exactly what leaves the server and what doesn’t.

I searched the pricing page, documentation, and FAQs but couldn’t find a detailed explanation.

Any clarification would be appreciated.
