Collection of Usage Statistics
Text Generation Inference collects anonymous usage statistics to help us improve the service. The collected data is used to improve TGI and to understand what causes failures. The data is collected transparently and any sensitive information is omitted.
Data is sent twice, once on server startup and once when server stops. Also, usage statistics are only enabled when TGI is running in docker to avoid collecting data then TGI runs directly on the host machine.
What data is collected
The code that collects the data is available here. As of release 2.1.2 this is an example of the data collected:

How to opt-out
You can easily opt out by passing the --disable-usage-stats to the text-generation-launcher command. This will disable all usage statistics. You can also pass --disable-crash-reports which disables sending specific crash reports, but allows anonymous usage statistics.
