<commit_before><commit_msg>Closes #1558: Move Telemetry wiki (#1588)<commit_after>> **If there is anything in this document that is not clear, is incorrect, or that requires more detail, please file a request through a [Github](https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/focus/issues) or [Bugzilla](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Focus&component=General). Also feel free to submit corrections or additional information.**

> **NOTE: As of v3.3, the Adjust SDK is no longer used for event tracking. It is still, however, used for install tracking in Firefox Focus only (but *NOT* in Firefox Klar).**

Firefox Focus and Firefox Klar use Mozilla's own [Telemetry](https://gecko.readthedocs.io/en/latest/toolkit/components/telemetry/telemetry/index.html) service for anonymous insight into usage of various app features. This event tracking is turned off by default for Firefox Klar (opt-in), but is on by default for Firefox Focus (opt-out).

The app uses Mozilla's own framework linked into Firefox Focus and Firefox Klar and a [data collection service](https://wiki.mozilla.org/Telemetry) run by Mozilla. The framework is open source and MPL 2.0 licensed. It is hosted at [https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/telemetry-ios](https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/telemetry-ios). Firefox Focus and Firefox Klar pull in an unmodified copy of the framework via [Carthage](https://github.com/Carthage/Carthage).

## Telemetry Pings

The Telemetry framework collects and sends two types of pings to Mozilla's Telemetry backend:

* A *Core Ping* with basic system info and usage times.
* An *Event Ping* with details about user preferences and UI actions with timestamps relative to the app start time.

The messages are also documented below in more detail of what is sent in each HTTP request. All messages are posted to a secure endpoint at `https://incoming.telemetry.mozilla.org`. They are all `application/json` HTTP `POST` requests. Details about the HTTP edge server can be found at [https://wiki.mozilla.org/CloudServices/DataPipeline/HTTPEdgeServerSpecification](https://wiki.mozilla.org/CloudServices/DataPipeline/HTTPEdgeServerSpecification).
