Omniverse releases may collect microservice settings, usage data, and hardware environment information for product configuration and improvement purposes; customers can disable collection by following instructions at the specified documentation URL.

This provision discloses telemetry collection by Omniverse deployments and directs customers to external documentation for opt-out instructions, rather than providing the opt-out mechanism directly in the agreement. The default enabled or disabled state of Omniverse telemetry is not specified in the document text, requiring customers to consult external documentation to determine the default posture.
Interpretive note: The document does not specify whether Omniverse telemetry is enabled or disabled by default, and opt-out instructions are delegated to an external URL rather than stated within the agreement, creating uncertainty about the default data collection posture.
The agreement discloses that Omniverse may collect microservice settings, usage data, and hardware environment data; customers must consult the external documentation at https://docs.omniverse.nvidia.com/usd/latest/common/data-collection.html to obtain and implement opt-out instructions.

"Customer acknowledges that Omniverse releases that collect data, collect it for the following purposes: (a) to properly configure and optimize products for use with the Software, and (b) to improve NVIDIA products and services. When enabled, telemetry data collected includes: (i) microservice settings, (ii) usage data, and (iii) hardware environment. Instructions for disabling collection of telemetry data are available at https://docs.omniverse.nvidia.com/usd/latest/common/data-collection.html.Excerpt from NVIDIA NIM's NVIDIA AI Foundation Models AUP
(1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Telemetry collection covering microservice settings, usage data, and hardware environment from Omniverse deployments engages GDPR transparency and data minimization principles for EU/EEA customers and CCPA disclosure obligations for California-based customers. Where Omniverse is deployed in enterprise environments handling personal data, the telemetry data flows should be evaluated under applicable data protection law to confirm they do not inadvertently capture personal data. (2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The agreement does not specify whether Omniverse telemetry is enabled or disabled by default, and delegates opt-out instructions to an external URL that may change over time. Enterprise compliance workflows that rely on the agreement text alone will not have sufficient information to determine the default collection state without consulting external documentation. (3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU/EEA deployments should evaluate whether Omniverse telemetry data flows to NVIDIA outside the EEA require a valid transfer mechanism under GDPR Chapter V. Healthcare and financial services customers using Omniverse for simulation or digital twin workflows should assess whether operational data captured in telemetry constitutes sector-sensitive information. (4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Data processing agreements with NVIDIA should be reviewed to confirm they address Omniverse telemetry data flows. The reference to an external URL for opt-out instructions, rather than in-contract specification, means that compliance teams must monitor that URL for changes and update internal procedures accordingly. (5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Compliance teams should access the opt-out documentation at https://docs.omniverse.nvidia.com/usd/latest/common/data-collection.html, implement applicable controls, and document the steps taken. Privacy notices and data maps should be updated to reflect Omniverse telemetry data flows. The external URL reference should be monitored for changes to opt-out procedures.
