This page documents one type of data collected by telemetry: what is collected, the problem we seek to solve by collecting the data, and how we minimize any risks to users' privacy in deploying the measurement.

Problem Statement

What problem will this solve?

The goal is to obtain a histogram of how often people run into flash, silverlight, java, quicktime and everything else as they browse. A secondary goal would be to identify the version of the plugin that is launched as a result of encountering the plugin-referencing object.

Measurement to Collect

We will collect a histogram showing the frequency each plugin type is encountered as the user browses the web. The histogram will contain frequency by plugin version instantiated.

Put sample data/data structure here

Privacy Considerations

This section will contain potential privacy risks and measures taken to minimize them.

Consent and Privacy Policy Considerations

This section contains notation of any changes to privacy policies or user opt-in/opt-out consent UX that is updated to include this measurement.

Alignment with Operating Principles

This section briefly describes how the measurement and technique lines up with our operating principles'
