context_id is used by sponsored TopSites and Firefox Suggest in the user interaction pings (impressions & clicks). We shall add it to the "deletion-request" scalar when the user opts out the browser telemetry collection so that we can delete their historical telemetry accordingly.

This is similar to what we did in bug 1602064 for impression_id of the newtab and Messaging System. We will add a new key context_id to the scalar deletion.request.

I've opened a jira issue to track the pipeline-side work to take advantage of this: https://mozilla-hub.atlassian.net/browse/ROAD-86

DATA COLLECTION REVIEW RESPONSE:

Is there or will there be documentation that describes the schema for the ultimate data set available publicly, complete and accurate?

Yes. This adds the Contextual Services identifier to a client's deletion-request ping. Ultimately, this client's corresponding Contextual Services data will be removed from the telemetry datasets.

Is there a control mechanism that allows the user to turn the data collection on and off?

Yes, this can be disabled from turning off telemetry in Firefox's preferences.

If the request is for permanent data collection, is there someone who will monitor the data over time?

Yes, Nan Jiang.

Using the category system of data types on the Mozilla wiki, what collection type of data do the requested measurements fall under?

Category 2, Interaction Data

Is the data collection request for default-on or default-off?

default-on

Does the instrumentation include the addition of any new identifiers?

No.

Is the data collection covered by the existing Firefox privacy notice?

Yes.

Does the data collection use a third-party collection tool?

No
