Usage, in the open
Every Mac that lit the lantern.
These numbers come from the same anonymous launch ping described in the privacy policy: a few booleans and a version string, no identifiers, nothing that ties a count to a person. Here is all of it.

What these numbers are, and are not.
- Aggregate counters only. Each figure is a single number in a table that goes up by one. There is no row per user, no way to go from a count back to a device or a person.
- Client-side deduplication. Your Mac decides whether a launch is the first today or this month and sends a boolean. The server just adds it up. It never sees an identifier on this path.
- Opt-out, in the app. Settings has a switch that turns the launch ping off entirely. Turn it off and this page simply stops hearing from your Mac.
- Trial enforcement is separate. The one identifier Orthanc uses, for trial fraud prevention, lives on a different path and never feeds these totals. The privacy policy covers it in full.
