In plain English — Fairphone

Fairphone doesn't sell your data and has a genuinely ethical mission, but it runs retargeting ads, sends your full IP address to Bloomreach for segmentation, keeps contract data for a minimum of seven years, defaults to anonymisation rather than deletion when you ask for your data to be removed, and forum posts older than 60 days can never be fully deleted.

In plain English — Netflix

Netflix collects detailed viewing behaviour, device fingerprints, and advertising data — including interests inferred by third-party ad companies from your activity across the internet — to serve behavioural ads on its ad-supported tier. Controls are reasonably accessible, but retention timelines are vague, Do Not Track is ignored, and the breadth of the ad-tech ecosystem is larger than you might expect from a subscription service.
