Shailesh Bavadekar, Adam Boulanger, John Davis et al.

This report describes the aggregation and anonymization process applied to the COVID-19 Vaccination Search Insights (published at http://goo.gle/covid19vaccinationinsights), a publicly available dataset showing aggregated and anonymized trends in Google searches related to COVID-19 vaccination. The applied anonymization techniques protect every user's daily search activity related to COVID-19 vaccinations with $(\varepsilon, δ)$-differential privacy for $\varepsilon = 2.19$ and $δ= 10^{-5}$.
