Information Collected by the Customer Experience Improvement
Program
You can participate in a customer experience improvement program when you install View Connection Server
with a new configuration or by using View Administrator after the installation. If you participate in the
program, VMware collects anonymous data about your deployment in order to improve VMware's response
to customer requirements. No data that identifies your organization is collected.
Before collecting the data, VMware makes anonymous all fields that contain information that is specific to your
organization. The sanitized fields identify computers, data storage, networking features, applications, and
users. For example, IP addresses and desktop customization specifications are made anonymous.
VMware sanitizes a field by generating a hash of the actual value. When a hash value is collected, VMware
cannot identify the actual value but can detect changes in the value when you change your environment.
To help you determine whether to join the program, you can review the fields from which VMware gathers
data. You can also examine all the sanitized fields. The fields are organized by View component.
Global View Data Collected by VMware
If you join the customer experience improvement program, VMware collects global data about the View
environment. Fields containing sensitive information are made anonymous.
