| The updater component will collect basic information about Home Assistant and it's environment. The information includes the current Home Assistant version, the timezone, Python version and operating system infomation. No identifyable information (i.e. IP, GPS coordinates) will ever be collected. If you are concerned about your privacy, you are welcome to scrutinize the Python [source code](https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant/blob/dev/homeassistant/components/updater.py#L91). | ||
