Afaik: If your data includes references to external URIs/URLs (like XML documents with schemata) then there *might* be processes involved that will try to make network requests to them. This can also happen with GeoPackages, e.g. if styles reference external URLs. Or a VRT that uses remote data sets. Or a .lyr file that has a remote server in it. Etc.

Good Afternoon,

I have a question regarding Data Privacy:

If a company or organisation decided to open locally stored sensitive location data within Vanilla QGIS, would the information stay on the user's hard drive and not be shared with QGIS or anyone else externally?

Please could you also provide details on QGIS's terms and conditions regarding data protection?

Thanks,

TC
