Maybe I'm an outlier but the better you describe what you're collecting the more I will trust you that it's just that. Not "Hey I want to collect and send stuff to improve whatever" (that could be a keylogger, or in the case of an editor it could be a list of the files in my top-secret project, if I was paranoid) but if you linked a document describing what exactly you send (or like the Valve hardware survey, a textbox with exactly the content I can skim..) fine!

I know this is an unreasonable amount of work and most non-devs would not react differently or have a higher conversion rate.. but that's the type of reports I have given to various open source projects, because explaining it in detail and then sending different stuff I do not agree with is a kind of maliciousness I don't usually expect, except from content marketers and growth hackers.
