It is not sent by default, so nothing to do here.
(It will only be sent if you have "push-peer-info" in your client config,
see "man openvpn" for what is always sent and what needs to be enabled)
Also, the whole question is a bit weird. Your VPN provider can identify
you by means of the account information you use to connect to them... and
also, they can see where you surf, what DNS queries you do, etc.
Thus: DO NOT USE A VPN PROVIDER THAT YOU DO NOT TRUST.
