*Products such as the lines of LG smart vacuum cleaners collect information such as images, floor maps, cleaning history, cleaning diary list, and video feed, which is then sent to LG servers.

*Products such as LG smart TVs have the "Do not sell my personal data" setting off by default, being opt-out rather than opt-in.

**In some countries, on some models, ~~the data collection is off by default~~ (e.g EU and OLED C3) ~~and switching it on requires accepting a~~ license agreement. However, ~~after some firmware updates, this~~ the data collection ~~setting~~ has ~~been turned on by~~ the ~~update~~. ~~In order to turn it off~~ the user is forced to agree to the license agreement ~~stipulating that LG are entitled to collecting data before the user is allowed~~ to ~~turn~~ data collection ~~off~~.

**In some countries, on some models, (e.g EU and OLED C3) the data collection may become enabled by some firmware updates without the user having accepted the license agreement that entitles LG to collect data. However, the setting to disable the data collection is in a sub-menu that is inaccessible unless the user has agreed to the license agreement. Thus, the user is forced to agree to the license agreement in order to disable data collection.

*Products such as LG smart TVs aggressively promotes updating the firmware. If there is a newer firmware version, then the user will be prompted to update every time the TV is turned on.

*Products such as LG smart TV's collect information on the use of the product, such as what content you watch and when you watch it.
