"All the information we collect is related to providing the Spotify service and its features." and "Technical and sensor information necessary to operate Spotify. This includes the type of browser and device you use, data from the touchscreen, and information from your device’s accelerometer and gyroscope sensors. This enables you to control Spotify and allows us to do simple things like rotate videos and recommend music based on whether you’re sitting still or running." (so no device fingerprinting for the purpose of advertising, like a lot of other services do).
