The Customer Experience Improvement Program provides VMware with information that allows VMware to improve its products and services, to fix problems, and to advise you on how best to deploy and use our products. As part of the CEIP, VMware collects technical information about your organization’s use of the VMware products and services regularly in association with your organization’s VMware license keys. This information does not personally identify any individual. For additional information regarding the CEIP, refer to the Trust & Assurance Center at http://www.vmware.com/trustvmware/ceip.html.
