## Title

    Do not infer zero data collection from the absence of accounts

## Body

    FACT: The examined design intentionally avoided accounts and social graphs, but still treated notification registration, encrypted installation state, provider paths, and local data as separate privacy questions. INFERENCE: No account is not equivalent to no data. RECOMMENDATION: Inventory every input, identifier, SDK, provider, retention rule, and device-local store before making a privacy claim.
