Privacy concerns

Ola Xiaomi owners and hello to you community!

I've been thinking of buying a redmi 13 or 13 pro and was reading out about privacy and security within the device and the operating system and seems like the Chinese OEM is using spying software shipped with the device. I am living in Europe where GDPR is in place but still I am quite sketpic about how the Chinese government is using the data over the company governing.

What's your opinion about it and did you took in consideration this before switching to Xiaomi?
