We released the first version of cPanel Analytics\u2019 Interface Analytics plugin in cPanel & WHM version 74. We released the full system in cPanel & WHM version 78.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Overview<\/h2>\n

cPanel Analytics features collect data about interface use and server configuration. We plan to use this information to improve the user experience in our products.<\/p>\n

We take your privacy very<\/strong> seriously. We have taken precautions to ensure that the data we collect is secure. We retain cPanel Analytics data for 26 months and then destroy it.<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Configuration Analytics is required<\/strong>. Interface Analytics is optional<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
  • You can enable or disable Interface Analytics at the account or server level at any time. We don\u2019t<\/strong> collect any<\/strong> Interface Analytics data until the root<\/code> user enables this at the server level. Interface Analytics also doesn\u2019t<\/strong> collect data about specific accounts\u2019 use until that user enables data collection at the account level.<\/li>\n
  • We strongly<\/strong> recommend that plugin developers also anonymize any collected data to respect user privacy.<\/li>\n
  • Interface Analytics respects the dnt<\/code> (Do Not Track) header. If you have disabled tracking in your browser, the feature will not<\/strong> collect data about you.<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

    Interface Analytics<\/h2>\n

    Interface Analytics allows us to collect data about how users navigate cPanel, WHM, and Webmail from within the interface. In cPanel & WHM version 78 and later, we automatically install the Interface Analytics plugin by default but do not<\/strong> enable it. The server owner and<\/strong> individual users must<\/strong> enable this before data collection begins.<\/p>\n

    When you enable Interface Analytics at the server level and<\/strong> users enable it at the account level, the plugin gathers several types of data. For more information, read our cPanel Analytics – The Data We Use documentation.<\/p>\n

    \n
    Note:<\/div>\n
    \n

    We do not<\/strong> track the content that exists on cPanel accounts. Additionally, the system removes URL-query parameters before cPanel, L.L.C. receives the data.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

        \n

          You must manually<\/strong> install and enable this plugin at the server level. Then, individual users can enable it to begin data collection for their account.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

          yum install cpanel-analytics\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
          When the \/usr\/local\/cpanel\/scripts\/maintenance<\/code> script runs, it checks for the \/etc\/yum.repos.d\/cpanel-plugins.repo<\/code> repository. It creates the repository if it does not exist. This repository contains the cPanel Analytics plugin as well as other cPanel-provided plugins.<\/p>\n
          Enable or disable Interface Analytics at the account level<\/h4>\n
          After installing the cpanel-analytics<\/code> plugin, an icon will appear in the cPanel, WHM, and Webmail interfaces.<\/p>\n
          \n
          Note:<\/div>\n
          \n
          This icon will also appear on the right side of each interface in cPanel & WHM and in Webmail.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
          To enable or disable Interface Analytics for the current account, perform the following steps:<\/p>\n
            \n
          1. \n
            Click the graph icon () in the bottom-right corner of the interface.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
          2. \n

              \n
              In cPanel & WHM version 78 and later, Configuration Analytics participation is required<\/strong>. We have classed this data as operational data that cPanel, L.L.C. requires in order to make vital business decisions.<\/p>\n
                \n
              • When you upgrade to cPanel & WHM version 78 or higher, the system will automatically enable Configuration Analytics.<\/li>\n
              • This does not<\/strong> enable Interface Analytics or alter your participation (or choice not to participate) in that program.<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
                Configuration Analytics gathers your server\u2019s update logs and sends them to cPanel, L.L.C. for analysis. Whenever the \/usr\/local\/cpanel\/scripts\/upcp<\/code> script runs, it creates a tarball file to send. This tarball contains the update log data that the system stored since your last update.<\/p>\n
                  \n
                • The gather-update-logs<\/code> script sends this data.<\/li>\n
                • For more information, read our cPanel Analytics – The Data We Use documentation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
                  Enable or disable in cPanel & WHM versions 74 and 76<\/h3>\n
                  With the exception of Interface Analytics, in cPanel & WHM version 74 and 76, you can enable or disable cPanel Analytics features in the Support<\/em> section of WHM\u2019s Tweak Settings<\/em> interface (WHM >> Home >> Server Configuration >> Tweak Settings<\/em>).<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
