      As a UI designer, no it’s not just them. We need to know how people are using features to know if we should prioritise or deprioritise work on them and what work we might want to put in them.

        Thank you. I’ve personally not worked at a company yet that actually sold this data or moved it outside of our internal systems. It exists purely to drive business decisions
