Data / Telemetry

This project collects data and sends it to Microsoft to help monitor our service performance and improve our products and services. Read the Microsoft
Privacy Statement to learn more.

To disable telemetry, you can call the following API:

`javascript
// disable telemetry data
sdk.Recognizer.enableTelemetry(false);
``

This is a global setting and will disable telemetry for all recognizers (already created or new recognizers).

We strongly recommend you keep telemetry enabled. With telemetry enabled you transmit information about your platform (operating system and possibly, Speech Service relevant information like microphone characteristics, etc.), and information about the performance of the Speech Service (the time when you did send data and when you received data). It can be used to tune the service, monitor service performance and stability, and might help us to analyze reported problems. Without telemetry enabled, it is not possible for us to do any form of detailed analysis in case of a support request.
