Telemetry

A self-hosted Marmot sends anonymous telemetry once a day so we can see how it's used and where to focus. It's on by default, and you can turn it off at any time.

What's sent​

  • A random install ID, not tied to any person or organisation
  • The Marmot version, operating system, architecture and Go version
  • How it's deployed: Kubernetes, Docker or the binary
  • Uptime and when the report was sent
  • Counts: assets, users, lineage edges and runs per plugin
  • Counts of lookups (asset, lineage, glossary term and data product views) by where they came from: the web UI, the API, the CLI, an SDK or MCP

What's never sent​

  • Hostnames, IP addresses or domain names
  • Asset names, descriptions or metadata values
  • Names, email addresses or anything else that identifies a person
  • Connection strings or credentials
  • Query text or API request bodies
  • Anything that identifies your organisation

Turn it off​

In config.yaml:

telemetry:
  enabled: false

With the Helm chart:

config:
  telemetry:
    enabled: false

Or with an environment variable:

MARMOT_TELEMETRY_ENABLED=false
