Q: Does the Community Edition of SciChart have a watermark?

The SciChart.js Community Edition has a watermark shown at the bottom left of the chart. This looks like this when you use the Community Edition of the library.

Q: Can I hide, move or resize the watermark?

It is not possible to hide the watermark in SciChart.js community edition. If you want to remove the watermark then you can buy a commercial license.

It is not possible to resize the watermark in SciChart.js community edition, however you can move the watermark if it is obstructing an important part of your chart data. 

To do this, set the property sciChartSurface.watermarkPosition, e.g.:

sciChartSurface.watermarkPosition = EWatermarkPosition.TopLeft

Q: Explain more about SciChart.js Telemetry (App Analytics)?

If you are using SciChart.js community edition, we collect usage telemetry in a GDPR compliant way via Azure App Analytics. Telemetry contains the SciChart version, URL where deployed, product code and license type.

No user-identifiable information is sent, no data about your application or data from your application. The IP address or user data of your users is not sent or stored. This minimal set of information is used to see trends in SciChart.js usage and in future may be used to help us detect errors or performance bottlenecks. 

Q: Can I remove or turn off Telemetry?

This is not possible with the community edition of SciChart.js, however we have two license types for commercial users:

1. Standard license, which contains license-audit telemetry from development machines only (not production domains/apps)
2. Air-gapped license, which has no communication at all.
