Collect analytic information	Understanding how people use our products is an important tool for continually improving them. Therefore, we collect nonpersonal product usage information using Google Analytics. For this process to be effective, we need to know what product you are using and to understand that you are a unique user. As a result, unless you choose to deactivate this option, we collect the following information: Number of jobs submitted by product Software version used for each job Where jobs are run (on the cloud or locally) This information is collected and transmitted when a job finishes. Note: We collect information regarding how many jobs are run and where they are solved. We do not collect any information about the jobs themselves, nor any information beyond the items in the preceding list. This information is not used to identify or contact you.
