- <p>GrapheneOS makes connections to the outside world to test connectivity,
- detect captive portals and download updates. No data varying per user /

+ <p>By default, GrapheneOS only makes remote connections to GrapheneOS services
+ and the network provided DNS resolvers. There aren't any analytics/telemetry
+ in GrapheneOS. None of the default connections sends any data varying based on
+ the user, installation or specific device. The only information revealed to
+ the GrapheneOS servers are the generic device model (such as Pixel 7 Pro) and
+ OS version which are necessary for obtaining updates. The default connections
+ provide the OS and apps with updates, set the system clock, check each network
+ connection for internet connectivity, download a global database (does not
+ vary based on location) with predicted satellite locations when using Location
+ and obtain attestation chain signing keys for the hardware keystore needed for
+ the hardware-based attestation feature.</p>
