  • Can google apps send data though sandboxed google play services?

[deleted] I would very much like to know if your method by IPC works, I am a car photographer, I store everything in Google photo for practical reasons, on the other hand the advertisements that are offered to me in chrome have absolutely nothing to do with that! the videos that are offered to me on youtube are never on the theme of cars, and I have not deactivated advertising profiling. so I would like someone to explain to me by a+b why I am not entitled to an ad that might interest me? I use all the Google services to connect to the internet, even the Google keyboard. if anyone has an answer...

      E24 already using it. Do miss the speech to text function from gboard though. Got to work with what's available

        Paflechien as far as I know google does not use photos, files and keyboard activity to send you ads or promos of any kind. But they do use it to collect data and train there AI models and other services. I think it is written in their terms and conditions.

            Average_joe The photos and files aren't sent in the first place (unless you use google photos and/or google drive)

            And Gboard does "Share usage statistics" with Google and It also uses Federated learning to "Improve for everyone" using Gboard. Gboard also personalises for you without sending any data. You can opt out of "Share usage statistics" with Google, "Personalise for you" and "Improve for everyone".

              So to clarify....
              I have all apps in main Owner profile.
              I have 3 Google apps from GOS App store.
              These 3 apps only have Network Permission turned: On.
              I have no other specific google apps, but I downloaded my other apps from GOS-Play store.
              So the way I understand it is: Google Play knows I downloaded my apps, BUT the 3 Google apps from GOS App store CANT get any data from my other apps in this same profile.
              Is this correct?

                Ok, I think I understand.
                The 3 GSA have (cell/wifi) Network Access that I grant. Let me ask this part from the other scenario: if someone wants to give "mutual consent", so their app can share data with the GSApps what do they actually toggle to allow this?

                    I figured it out, thanks for the help
