No. The data tracking is because of the Google services ads. An app developer gets no compensation for data tracking, only serving ads which causes the tracking.
That's seriously splitting hairs. The tracking is part and parcel with the ads, the compensation is for the tracking too.
What I was responding to was about what happens when the ads are removed by subscribing. If the ads are removed, there is no more tracking.
Isnt tracking done by Google service app and not sync itself? I am not an app developer but it doesn't seem logical for someone to add tracking elements that they have no control over.
