For data such as number of times the game has been played, what percentage of total players completed the first level, etc... is there a way to collect this data in C3?

If this is data you want as the developer:

The only reliable way I would know is to use a mysql database and collect the data for you to manipulate.

There is a high-score tutorial that gives a good introduction to how to store data in a database. (AJAX, MYSQL, PHP)

If it's just for the user, you could just store a variable in local storage.

To add to jsutton:

you could also look into firebase analytics plugins, there are a few out there for C3, they are mostly payed though.

Most easiest way is to use Gameanalytics. Just google it. There is a Construct 3 plugin for Gameanalytics - https://www.construct.net/en/make-games/addons/95/gameanalytics.
