<h3><a href="#default-connections">What kind of connections do the OS and bundled apps make by default?</a></h3>

installation / device is sent in these connections. There aren't analytics /
telemetry in GrapheneOS. By default, remote connections are only made to
GrapheneOS services and the network provided DNS resolvers.</p>

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
