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.
Can google apps send data though sandboxed google play services?
Average_joe it's anonymized

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?
I figured it out, thanks for the help
