# Privacy information
Fedora Media Writer uses a custom User-Agent header for the Fedora project to have a clear statistic of how prevalent download method it is.
This User-Agent string is in the following format: `FedoraMediaWriter/$VERSION ($OS $OSVERSION; $BUILDARCH; $LOCALE; $DETAILS)`.
You can disable this behavior by using `mediawriter --no-user-agent` which will make it use the Qt default User-Agent string (likely `Mozilla/5.0`).
