When should support logs include identifiable device IDs?

← All answers

Direct answer

Routine telemetry should use pseudonymous IDs, while serial numbers or account links appear only inside authenticated support sessions with consent. GDPR and enterprise contracts often require minimization even when full IDs make debugging faster. For a sensor fleet, promote an ID only when a user opens a ticket and approves deeper log access.
