### Telemetry
In order to understand which images and operating systems are most popular and re-organise the application accordingly, when using the default image repository, the URL, operating system name and category (if present) of a selected image are sent to https://rpi-imager-stats.raspberrypi.com by [`downloadstatstelemetry.cpp`](https://github.com/raspberrypi/rpi-imager/blob/qml/downloadstatstelemetry.cpp).
In order to understand usage of the application (e.g. uptake of Raspberry Pi Imager versions and which images and operating systems are most popular) when using the default image repository, the URL, operating system name and category (if present) of a selected image are sent along with the running version of Raspberry Pi Imager, your operating system, CPU architecture, locale and Raspberry Pi revision (if applicable) to https://rpi-imager-stats.raspberrypi.com by downloadstatstelemetry.cpp.
This web service is hosted by [Heroku](https://www.heroku.com) and only stores an incrementing counter using a [Redis Sorted Set](https://redis.io/topics/data-types#sorted-sets) for each URL, operating system name and category per day in the `eu-west-1` region and does not associate any personal data with those counts. This allows us to query the number of downloads over time and nothing else.
