# `Reporting`
This document explains `OpenBBTerminal` `Reporting` feature.
## 1. Purpose
**CONTRIBUTE**
Code is not the only way you can contribute to improve `OpenBBTerminal`.
You can help the `OpenBBTerminal` Community by enabling sending logs about the usage of the terminal and errors.
If you are concerned about privacy, be assured, we do **not** collect any:
- Personal Identifiable Information (PII).
- Credentials.
This means that you will stay anonymous at all time.
**REASONS**
With your these reports, we can:
1. See what your favorite features are, understand why and further improve them.
2. Have a look at the most common errors and improve on the ease of use of the terminal.
3. Check for incompatibilities of different operating systems and python versions.
This helps to resolve bugs faster and focus the attention of the developers on what is important to you.
`OpenBBTerminal` is an on-site application: you install it on your computer.
On a contrary of a web application that can track the usage of every button and page, we need logs to be sent to us to understand where to spend our time and effort.
## 2. Disable/Enable `Reporting` ?
By default Reporting is enabled.
You can disable it running the command: `/settings/logcollection`
The key `logcollection` should appear in red in the `/settings/help` table when disabled.
You can do the same operation to re-enable it : `logcollection` will appear in green.
## 3. What is and is not collected ?
**NOT COLLECTED**
We have a filter in place, to prevent any Personal Identifiable information saved in the reports.
Credentials are not reported at all.
Here is a list of data we are not collecting :
|**Data**|**Description**|**Collected ?**|
