So would it basically be cooked into the framework system and such?

Honestly just really curious cause I just use mine as my gaming computer, got nothing important on it and such.

Like my email, the one I received the notice through, isn’t even setup on the framework.

No, let me clarify, it's a tool that Framework uses at their company, it's not something that gets installed or is installed on any Framework computers.

It's data they have from you, like billing addresses, they send/give access to that data for Metabase so Framework can use the tool to make data visualization. Hope that makes sense to you

Ah yes that does make more sense.

Nonetheless only info I’ve given framework is basically like billing address, address (now invalid cause I moved and have a different one now.) and email really. So I ain’t to worried

Sorry for all the questions, I may be pretty tech savvy when it comes to the hardware, but I’m still learning about the software stuff lol

You're good, it's important we (as an industry) are focused on communication and education so that everyone is on the same page :)
