Firefox Health Report
|
||
|
=====================
|
||
|
|
||
|
``/services/healthreport`` contains the implementation of the
|
||
|
``Firefox Health Report`` (FHR).
|
||
|
|
||
|
Firefox Health Report is a background service that collects application
|
||
|
metrics and periodically submits them to a central server. The core
|
||
|
parts of the service are implemented in this directory. However, the
|
||
|
actual XPCOM service is implemented in the
|
||
|
:ref:`data_reporting_service`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The core types can actually be instantiated multiple times and used to
|
||
|
power multiple data submission services within a single Gecko
|
||
|
application. In other words, everything in this directory is effectively
|
||
|
a reusable library. However, the terminology and some of the features
|
||
|
are very specific to what the Firefox Health Report feature requires.

Legal and Privacy Concerns
|
||
|
==========================
|
||
|
|
||
|
Because Firefox Health Report collects and submits data to remote
|
||
|
servers and is an opt-out feature, there are legal and privacy
|
||
|
concerns over what data may be collected and submitted. **Additions or
|
||
|
changes to submitted data should be signed off by responsible
|
||
|
parties.**
