+# Anonymous Telemetry
+
+To help the [Kedro Project maintainers](/contribution/technical_steering_committee) improve the software,
+Kedro can capture anonymised telemetry.
+This data is collected with the sole purpose of improving Kedro by understanding feature usage.
+Importantly, we do not store personal information about you or sensitive data from your project,
+and this process is never utilized for marketing or promotional purposes.
+Participation in this program is optional, and Kedro will continue working as normal if you opt-out.
+
+The Kedro Project's telemetry has been reviewed and approved under the
+[Telemetry Data Collection and Usage Policy] of LF Projects, LLC.
+
+Kedro collects anonymous telemetry through [the Kedro-Telemetry plugin],
+which will prompt you for your consent the first time.
+
+[the Kedro-Telemetry plugin]: https://github.com/kedro-org/kedro-plugins/tree/main/kedro-telemetry
+[Telemetry Data Collection and Usage Policy]: https://lfprojects.org/policies/telemetry-data-policy/
+
+## Collected data fields:
+
+- **Hashed Username:** An anonymized representation of the user's computer username.
+- **CLI Command (Masked Arguments):** The command used, with sensitive arguments masked for privacy.
+- **Hashed Package Name:** An anonymized identifier of the project.
+- **Kedro Project Version:** The version of Kedro being used.
+- **Kedro-Telemetry Version:** The version of the Kedro-Telemetry plugin.
+- **Python Version:** The version of Python in use.
+- **Operating System:** The operating system on which Kedro is running.
+- **Tools Selected:** The tools chosen during the `kedro new` command execution, if applicable.
+- **Number of Datasets, Nodes, and Pipelines:** Quantitative data about the project structure.
+
+For technical information on how the telemetry collection works, you can browse
+[the source code of `kedro-telemetry`](https://github.com/kedro-org/kedro-plugins/tree/main/kedro-telemetry).
+
+## How do I consent to the use of Kedro-Telemetry?
+
+Kedro-Telemetry is a Python plugin. To install it:
+
+```console
+pip install kedro-telemetry
+```
+
+```{note}
+If you are using an official [Kedro project template](/starters/starters) then `kedro-telemetry` is included in the [project-level `requirements.txt`](/kedro_project_setup/dependencies) of the starter. `kedro-telemetry` is activated after you have a created a new project with a [Kedro project template](/starters/starters) and have run `kedro install` from the terminal.
+```
+
+When you next run the Kedro CLI you will be asked for consent to share usage analytics data for the purposes explained in the privacy notice, and a `.telemetry` YAML file will be created in the project root directory. The variable `consent` will be set according to your choice in the file, e.g. if you consent:
+
+```yaml
+consent: true
+```
+
+```{note}
+The `.telemetry` file should not be committed to `git` or packaged in deployment. In `kedro>=0.17.4` the file is git-ignored.
+```
+
+## How do I withdraw consent?
+
+To withdraw consent, you can change the `consent` variable to `false` in `.telemetry` YAML by editing the file in the following way:
+
+```yaml
+consent: false
+```
+
+Or you can uninstall the plugin:
+
+```console
+pip uninstall kedro-telemetry
+```
