They are basically storing a list of domains you have visited, not the pages, or content.

As to who will access the data - for members of CF I would guess at no one, unless we happen to have some terrorist members we dont know about. These services are extremely busy, and have to justify to senior officers (or equivelent) why they should access this data, they are not going to waste their time doing this unless its actually important. I also think its pointless, since its not really telling them much, plus organised criminal or terror groups will simply bypass such things with VPNs etc.
