    I work for a company that requires everything to have a privacy policy that meets some minimums. We’re technically not supposed to even use Google websearch because putting any question into it potentially sends company information into the world and out of our control. That one’s not really enforced, thank goodness.

    Without a privacy policy, I guess the calculator app could scrape the numbers you’re entering, plus, idk an email and a OneNote entry for context, to reverse engineer the latest doodad we’ve been designing.

    It’s difficult to imagine what numbers from the calculator alone could be used for, but combine it with other information and you’ve got a problem.
