    Unity Analytics does not automatically collect demographic information from users. We do use a geo-IP service to find where the IP address of a user originates, to give a general idea of where a user is located. That is how our Geographic segments are created.

    The only reliable way to get information about user (such as age or gender) is to ask them. Once you have that information from the user, you can associate it with their Analytics data using our user attribute methods:
    https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/UnityAnalyticsUserAttributes.html

    Once you have sent this information, you can use the pre-built Demographics segments or create your own Custom Segments.

    Thank you a lot for this answer, it was very helpful.
    I have one more question about user management. Is there some way to filter specific accounts, so unity analytics don't track data for those accounts? We need to exclude our test accounts.
