Let us tell more about ad filters usage statistics.
If you enable the «Send statistics for ad filters usage» option, the following information is sent periodically:
- Extension version.
- Browser type (Chrome/Firefox/Opera/Yandex.Browser/Safari).
- List of enabled ad filters.
- The list that consists of the following elements:
- The domain name of the website,
- The number of recent page views,
- The list of filtering rules and Filter ID which were activated on this website,
- The domain name of blocked requests is sent for URL rules
- The list is created based on the website's visit statistics since the last time statistical data was sent.
By gathering statistics on used filtering rules, we can detect and remove the rules that are no longer used. As a result, it will help all those who use Adguard. You can learn more here: http://adguard.com/en/filter-rules-statistics.html.
We plan to make this statistics public as it may be helpful to all filters developers.
