• Selective Recording: Only application interface interactions, not personal content
• Opt-out Available: Session recording can be disabled in application settings
• Duration Limits: Sessions shorter than 3 seconds are automatically discarded

Error Reporting:

• No Personal Code: User code content is not captured in error reports
• Technical Focus: Only application errors and crashes are reported
• File Path Privacy: System paths are sanitized to remove personal information
