# Host Environment

> Automatically collected information about the environment where your agent runs

## Collected Information

The following information is automatically collected:

* **Operating System**: The OS type and version (e.g., "Linux", "Windows", "macOS")
* **Python Version**: The version of Python being used
* **Hostname**: The name of the host machine (anonymized)
* **AgentOps SDK Version**: The version of the AgentOps SDK being used
* **Process ID**: The ID of the process running the agent

## Usage in Analytics

Host environment information enables:

* Identifying environment-specific issues
* Tracking performance across different platforms
* Ensuring compatibility with specific OS versions
* Monitoring SDK version adoption

## Privacy Considerations

AgentOps is designed with privacy in mind:

* No personally identifiable information is collected
* Hostnames are anonymized
* No network scanning or detailed system analysis is performed
* Only the minimum necessary information for debugging is gathered

## Disabling Host Environment Collection

If needed, you can disable host environment collection when initializing AgentOps:

```python theme={null}
import agentops

# Disable host environment collection
agentops.init(api_key="YOUR_API_KEY", env_data_opt_out=True)
```
