Windows 10: privacy question about smart screen

Hello,

Regarding Microsoft smart-screen I would like to know what information is being sent. to Microsoft from my computer exactly?

at the web address "https://privacy.microsoft.com/en-US/ie10-win7-privacy-statement" it states:
"When you use SmartScreen Filter to check websites automatically or manually, the address of the website you are visiting will be sent to Microsoft, together with standard computer information and the SmartScreen Filter version number."

What exactly is all of the "standard computer information"? I would like to know each piece as this seems to be a very vague statement.

I know that you Microsoft no longer is storing SIDs from individuals based on an answer from a person at Microsoft privacy. Does Microsoft get any other identifying information though? Do you get the name of the computer?


Also, I realize I can just ask this via the Microsoft privacy portal. However, it takes months to get answers and I tried it. but the portal. won't let it submit... so here I am.
