The second sentence is misleading and arguably disingenuous. Firefox
could provide the tiles feature without sending most or all of that
data to Mozilla. You could simply remove "In order to provide the
tiles feature, ".

Also, gee, it's a lot of data. In particular: "URLs"? That could mean
almost anything. Needs more detail.

If you think I'm nit-picking, you're right. That's because tiles has
already proven to be a hot-button topic and a source of intense
criticism of Firefox and Mozilla. I suggest you tread lightly and
carefully.
