Information
The policy setting allows the reporting of usage and crash-related data to Microsoft.
Note: This policy is deprecated. It is currently supported but will become obsolete in Microsoft Edge v89. This policy will be replaced by the policy: DiagnosticDatafor on Windows 7, Windows 8, and macOS.
This policy will be replaced by Allow Telemetry on Windows 10.
For more information please visit Configure Windows diagnostic data in your organization (Windows 10) - Windows Privacy | Microsoft Docs.
The recommended state for this setting is Disabled.
Rationale:
Usage data and crash-related data could potentially contain sensitive information from the system's memory. Data should be protected and not shared with third-party vendors.
Impact:
Usage and crash-related data will not be sent to Microsoft.

Computer Configuration\Policies\Administrative Templates\Microsoft Edge\Enable usage and crash-related data reporting
