HP Inc has developed the HP Touchpoint Analytics Client for Windows 10 software program in order to gather telemetry data from HP computers running Microsoft’s Windows OS in order to improve overall product performance and reliability. The data gathered through this client program helps HP improve overall performance and reliability as a company.
This program operates silently in the background to collect data regarding system performance, hardware configuration and other system-related aspects. Once collected, these reports are transmitted back to HP Inc. servers for analysis.
Users may opt-out by either uninstalling it from their computers, disabling it through Windows Task Manager, or disabling telemetry data sharing in Windows settings.
While users may have concerns regarding HP Inc’s data collection practices, HP has assured users that all data gathered is anonymous and does not include any personally identifying information. When users log onto HP’s program for data collection they do so anonymously without including personally identifying information in it. Eventually this results in no personally recognizable data being stored by it.
