LvH Did you read the privacy policy? âdata = moneyâ, bunq isnât selling your data to anyone, itâs used to make the app better, thatâs it.
And just because itâs Google doesnât mean you canât trust them at all, yes they collect a lot of data and show you personalised ads and you can be against that!, but they always told you they do so, they never said "no we don't track you and no we don't show you personalised ads".
What reason should they have to make an anonymous version of the tracker, if itâs not anonymous?
So no, I don't think it's "suspicious" at best, just because they track me with other products, because they always told me they do.
And just because you personally don't like a button here and there doesn't mean the overall data is useless.
I remember old times with per merchant limits, and 3/4 different card limits. Yes, that was cool in theory, but the data showed bunq that this caused a lot of failed payments and confusion in the app, so they simplified it. Yes, it's maybe to simple now but since then I don't see any daily "Why did my payment got declined" posts on together anymore. So it surely helped a lot of people.
I'm still in favour of an opt out option though.
