I can't promise that this happens in the EU, but it does in the US. Literally any child using a chromebook for school, as many are forced to by the schools, is forced to hand massive amounts of personal data to Google. Google may claim that they aren't keeping the data they are collecting, but they are collecting it and their services wouldn't function if they were not. This leads to some weird situations where a student who violates youtube's ToS can be locked out of the chromebook their school requires them to use to take tests and do homework (see https://old.reddit.com/r/k12sysadmin/comments/109cn00/suspen...)
