Hey, here's Gaëlle Medeiros-Logeay, Data Protection Officer at Vivaldi.
The data we collect is not personally identifiable, and we try to keep it as minimal as possible. :)
We're not in the business of collecting data, and we do not sell them to advertisers like others do. The collected data helps us to understand where most of our users come from.
Our stats show us which country our users are located in and nothing more. We don't do data profiling. We just look at trends.
We don't see any browsing history, it's all stored locally so that only you can see your own browsing history. If you use Sync, then the data is encrypted.
If you want to read more about our privacy, this article wrote about us at length on this topic: https://www.ghacks.net/2018/01/30/vivaldi-browser-privacy/
Hope this clarifies things for you. :)
