+# Collecting usage data
+
+You can choose to have the Prototype Kit send anonymous usage data for analysis.
+This helps the team working on the Kit understand how it's being used, in order
+to improve it - please don't turn off usage data unless you have to.
+
+## How it works
+
+When you first run the Prototype Kit, it will ask you for permission to send
+usage data to Google Analytics. It will store your answer in `usage-data-config.json` and it won't ask
+you again.
+
+If you say yes, it will store an anonymous, unique ID number in `usage-data-config.json`.
+
+## Data we collect
+
+The kit will only send data when you run it on your computer. It does not send data when you run it on Heroku.
+
+Whenever you start the Prototype Kit, it will send:
+
+ - your anonymous ID number
+ - the Prototype Kit version number
+ - your operating system (for example 'Windows 10')
+ - your Node.js version
+
+## Change usage data settings
+
+You can start or stop sending usage data at any time. Delete `usage-data-config.json`
+and restart the Prototype Kit. It will ask you again whether you'd like to send data.
