TOSHIBA Product Improvement Program

The TOSHIBA Product Improvement Program recognizes the system and
individual component serial numbers and will track specific activities related
to the computer and their usage.
The collected information includes basic computer information (that is:
product name, model number, part number, serial number, BIOS version,
FW version), basic components information (that is: Video device, Sound
device, Network device, HDD/SSD, Optical Disc drive), operating system
information (that is: OS version, settings (power button action, lid close
action, property of taskbar, file extension settings, user profile number),
error information (BSoD, application error) ), device operation time and
number of actuations or status changes (that is: number of power button
and FN key combination uses, AC adaptor, battery (for models with
battery), LCD, fan (for models with fan), HDD/SSD, sound volume, wireless
communication functionalities and USB information), usage of TOSHIBA
provided features/applications (that is: settings, operation, install state and
launch times), date of initial system use, and also computer and device
usage (that is: power settings, battery temperature and recharging (for
models with battery), CPU, memory, backlight illumination time, and
temperatures for various devices). The collected information is not limited
to the examples specified here. The stored data uses a very small portion
of the total hard disk capacity, approximately 20 MB or less per year.
Transmission of collected data is performed when the data transfer feature
is enabled. The transferred information will be analyzed statistically, and it
will be used for the better product planning and development such as
improvement of application software.
