+### Request latency telemetry
+
+By default, the library sends request latency telemetry to Stripe. These
+numbers help Stripe improve the overall latency of its API for all users.
+
+You can disable this behavior if you prefer:
+
+```go
+config := &stripe.BackendConfig{
+	EnableTelemetry: false,
+}
