What information is stored during automatic update checks?

When checking for updates, OpenRocket sends some non-personal information about the current installation. This information is used for statistical purposes (such as estimating what kind of load would be expected to thrustcurve.org when integrating with it, what Java versions should be supported, how much effort should be spent on parallelization, to what languages the software should be localized etc.) and also to quench the curiosity of the developers. We don't get any payment for the work we do, so knowing how much the software is used may help in motivating further development.

The information stored during the checks are:

1. The OpenRocket version and build source (default JAR file or some Linux distribution for instance)
2. A randomly-generated ID for the installation (does not contain any information about the user or system)
3. The operating system name and computer architecture
4. The Java runtime vendor and Java runtime version
5. The country and locale of the user
6. The number of processors in the computer
7. The time when the check was made

Note that the user's IP address is not stored with this information. The IP address is likely stored in the Sourceforge web access logs, but the developers do not have access to this information.

The automatic checks for updates can be disabled in the Options tab of the preferences dialog.

Where to ask more information?

The best place to ask questions is the OpenRocket forums, where other people can also answer and see the answers.
