From Telemetry pings — Mozilla Source Tree Docs 49.0a1 documentation

Quote:
A Telemetry ping is the data that we send to Mozillas Telemetry servers.

That data is stored as a JSON object client-side and contains common information to all pings and a payload specific to a certain ping types.
So it's the stuff sent to the Mozilla "health" servers and such, for browser crashes etc. These are just the object ID's, the actual objects are stored somewhere deeper in Mozilla as Javascript objects.

The folders will still be created, whether or not you allow firefox to send this telemetry. To disable it entirely, see here.
