Does tracking mileage have any privacy implications if it was just a self-report type dealio or would that be too easy to lie on?

I'm guessing the privacy implications come in only if it's the car doing it for you, where it might be taking that data for itself too to add to your ad network profile or whatever.

My current thoughts would be I'd rather report my mileage difference each year or whatever.
