Usage Statistics
Usage Statistics
Section titled “Usage Statistics”Sublarr can send anonymous, opt-in usage statistics to help prioritise development, gauge compatibility, watch fleet health, and show real-world adoption. It is off by default and sends nothing until you explicitly enable it.
Legal basis
Section titled “Legal basis”The processing rests on your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). Consent is opt-in, default off, and withdrawable at any time — there are no consequences for leaving it off or turning it back off later. Withdrawing your consent also erases the data already collected from your install (see Right to erasure).
What is sent
Section titled “What is sent”A single anonymous ping, roughly once every 24 hours. Every field is an enum, a boolean, or a coarse bucket — never a raw count and never free text.
Stable core (always sent when enabled)
Section titled “Stable core (always sent when enabled)”| Field | Example | Why |
|---|---|---|
install_id | random opaque id | De-duplicate installs and count active ones; generated locally, not derived from anything identifying |
version | 1.10.0 | Which versions are in use |
arch | amd64 / arm64 | Platform split (e.g. Raspberry Pi adoption) |
db_backend | sqlite / postgres | Deployment shape |
providers_enabled | ["addic7ed"] | Which providers are popular |
library_size_bucket | 1k-10k | Rough deployment size (a bucket, never an exact count) |
reported_at | ISO-8601 | When the ping was sent |
Feature usage — features
Section titled “Feature usage — features”| Field | Example | Values |
|---|---|---|
translation_enabled | true | boolean |
translation_backend | ollama | ollama / openai / none (type only — never a model name or URL) |
media_server_type | emby | jellyfin / emby / plex / kodi / none |
sonarr_connected | true | boolean |
radarr_connected | false | boolean |
standalone_mode | false | boolean |
redis_used | true | boolean |
Environment — env
Section titled “Environment — env”| Field | Example | Values |
|---|---|---|
interface_language | de | low-cardinality locale code |
auth_type | proxy | none / ui / proxy |
update_channel | stable | stable / rc / beta (derived from the version suffix) |
Scale buckets — scale
Section titled “Scale buckets — scale”Each value is a bucket on the same scale as library_size_bucket (e.g.
<100, 100-1k, 1k-10k), never an exact count.
| Field | Example |
|---|---|
series_bucket | 100-1k |
movies_bucket | <100 |
downloads_bucket | 1k-10k |
translation_jobs_bucket | <100 |
Provider health
Section titled “Provider health”| Field | Example | Why |
|---|---|---|
auto_disabled_count | 0 | Anonymous fleet-health signal — how many providers auto-disabled, never which ones |
What is never sent
Section titled “What is never sent”No IP address, no hostname, no filesystem path, no series/movie title, no
API key, no exact counts, and no per-user or per-library-content data. The
/v1/ping endpoint does not store the client IP. Which provider credentials
an install has configured is deliberately not collected.
Retention
Section titled “Retention”- Installs: an install’s row is kept only while it stays active. If it
stops pinging, it is deleted 180 days after its last activity
(
last_seen). - Aggregate snapshots: the public trend charts are built from daily
snapshots that hold only anonymous aggregate counts (no
install_id). Because they are anonymous, they are kept for 24 months.
Right to erasure
Section titled “Right to erasure”Because your install stores its own install_id locally, you can delete your
data without knowing any server-side identifier. Turning the toggle off
withdraws consent and fires POST /v1/forget {install_id}, which deletes your
install’s row on the server. You never need to email anyone to be forgotten —
though you still can (see the privacy policy).
Turning it on or off
Section titled “Turning it on or off”- New installs: you are asked once during onboarding.
- Existing installs: you are asked once in the “What’s New” dialog after updating.
- Any time: Settings → About → Anonymous usage statistics.
The public aggregate is shown at sublarr.de/stats.
