Nope.
Not remotely private.
According to the PDF on their Privacy Policy page:
They collect a whole bunch of data on you. Including every site you visit. As well as every email and SMS you receive.
They then use and provide that "anonymized" data to any 3rd party they work with.
They target you with 3rd party ads (personalized content).
What a fantastic comment. Thanks so much for the effort.
