In plain English — Uber

Uber tracks everywhere you go, records your calls, photographs your face, and buys demographic profiles from data brokers — then feeds all of it into a vast advertising machine that includes Meta and TikTok. You can limit some collection but you can't use the service without surrendering your location and trip history for up to seven years.

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.
