Disable sending data to 3rd party

Supported on: All Citrix Workspace supported platforms

Description

Use this policy to disable sending data to 3rd party services e,g Google analytics. Disable: When this is disabled, anonymous data may be sent to 3rd party services. Enable: When this is enabled, no data will be sent to 3rd party services.

Registry

HKLM Software\Policies\Citrix\ICA Client\Compliance\Disable3rdPartyData

Value name: DisableSend

Enabled: DisableSend = 1

Disabled: DisableSend = 0

REG Builder

BETA

Configure the state and elements to generate .reg, PowerShell, Intune, and SCCM outputs.

These exports replicate the policy's registry effect. Editing the registry directly is not the same as applying the GPO through the management console (no gpupdate, no central reporting). Test before production; HKLM changes require administrator rights.
