That is correct.  But remember, that setting is from that LPAR's point 
of view.   In other words, if you have LPARs A,B,C and D and turn
off Global Performance Data Control on LPAR D,  LPARs A,B and C
can still see everything - including LPAR D.  It's only on LPAR D where
you would have the problem.

Below are descriptions of the option from the HMC, which has a nice
simple explanation and the second one is from the PR/SM manual (z9 EC,
but this hasn't changed):

Global performance data control

To indicate whether the logical partition can be used to view 
the processing unit activity data for all other logical partitions
activated on the same CPC, select Global performance data control. 

   -------------------------------------------------

Global Performance Data Control

Authority This control limits the ability of a LP to view CP 
activity data for other LPs. LPs with control authority for 
global performance data can view CP utilization data and 
Input/Output Processor (IOP) busy data for all of the LPs
in the configuration. Additionally, gathering of FICON channel
measurements requires selection of this parameter. With the
exception of an LP that is a member of a WLM Cluster, an LP
without control authority for the performance data can view 
only the CP utilization data for that LP. Use the Customize/Delete
Activation Profiles task available from the CPC Operational
Customization tasks list to open a reset or image profile
to enable global performance data control for an LP. The Global
performance data control selection is located on the Security
page for the LP. 

Note: An LP running a level of RMF that supports FICON requires
control authority even if no FICON is installed.
