If you mean by "collect usage stats" train their AI model on-device and send the training result to Google, then yes. If you mean that the actual words get sent to Google's servers, then no. There was a study shared recently that looked into this. Only metadata about what's typed is sent. That's not nothing of course, but it's not what Tencent does at all.

E: Found it.
