How is recording every single user interaction with an app “private by default?” The data is tied to a user ID as far as I understand, so it is personally identifiable information.

I appreciate that you think about privacy but you really can’t call this “private by default” as the amount of information you collect from every user is extensive. Privacy by default requires that you have the user opt in to the tracking (i.e. privacy is the default setting) and minimize information collection, which you really don’t.

If you really care about privacy you should consider going through a formal privacy by design & default process and certification.
