# Anonymized research data and how to opt out

Source: https://help.jenzo.ai/articles/research-data-opt-out

Jenzo publishes research about how teams use AI, for example what AI coding costs across tools and models. With your permission, your workspace's usage can be part of those totals, always anonymized and mixed with many other workspaces.

## What may be used

Only statistics, aggregated across many workspaces: kind of work, token counts, cost, model, AI tool, duration and the week it happened.

## What is never used

Ticket text, files, messages, code, and the names of people or companies. Your workspace is never identifiable in anything published.

## The default

Sharing is **on** by default for new workspaces, as stated in the [Terms](https://app.jenzo.ai/terms#research-data) and [Privacy policy](https://app.jenzo.ai/privacy#research-data). It applies on every plan, including Free.

## How to opt out

1. Open **Settings > Workspace and members**.
2. Find the card **Anonymized research data**.
3. Untick **Share anonymized usage statistics for research**.

You will see *Research data sharing is off*. Only an admin can change this. If you use Jenzo on your own, you are the admin.

## What happens when you switch it off

From that moment your workspace is left out of every new analysis. Totals published earlier cannot be traced back to you and stay published. You can switch it back on any time.
