Unclear The condition that switches on the restricted mode is not stated, so it is unclear who gets this behaviour.

What

Claude Code attaches some details to the usage data it reports. In a certain restricted mode this now changes:

  • user.email is no longer included. Before, it was added whenever an email was known.
  • terminal.type is reported as a fixed value instead of the terminal Claude Code detected.

Outside that mode, both behave as before.

Why

This is a privacy-related change: in that mode, less identifying information goes out with usage data.
