In plain English — Reddit

Reddit collects your behaviour, device data, and inferences about your demographics, and shares some of it with ad-tech partners — but it explicitly doesn't sell your personal data, deletes IP addresses after 100 days, doesn't track precise location, and extends privacy rights to all users worldwide, not just those in regulated regions.

In plain English — NordVPN

NordVPN genuinely doesn't log your VPN activity — that part of the privacy pitch holds up — but outside the tunnel it runs a large advertising and analytics infrastructure full of US-based trackers, shares data within a broad corporate group, markets to you for a year after you cancel, and retains billing records for a decade.
