What constitutes Usage Data. Is it sharing the posts I view, communities I subscribe to etc?

Does paying for a premium version stop this data being collected?

Use a duckduckgo tracker blocker. It'll show you what trackers it has and what they typically collect.

This can be deceiving for link aggregator apps, because it'll also pick up trackers that other sites are using, and not the app itself.

In addition as the earlier reply mentions -- "typically" collect. It has no knowledge of the data I believe. Simply what tracker is used and what it can be used for. Good for who, but not for what.

Where do you find this tracker blocker? The play store is only showing the duckduckgo browser for me
