The Privacy Policy states that:

'We collect information about the way you use our Products after you have installed and registered them, if your in-product settings are set to enable such collection. The specific "Product Usage Data" varies depending upon which Product you are using, but may include:
[...]
  • for Parallels Desktop only, list of Parallels virtual machines installed on your computer including virtual machine names, and virtual hardware configuration
  • for Parallels Desktop only, software configuration of your virtual machines, including operating systems and other software products installed inside your virtual machines
  • for Parallels Desktop only, a list of the software products you use inside your virtual machines
`
I would like some more clarifications on this.
  • Is this referring to the "Customer Experience Program" or is this telemetry data sent regardless of my CEP settings?
  • If it is sent separately, is there a way I can opt out of this?
  • What configurations does "software configuration of your virtual machines" refer to? I especially do not want things in my /etc, ~/.local, ~/.config and whatnot being collected, as they might contain login credentials to different services.
