Disabling bloatware
(sh.itjust.works)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

It doesn't sound like you understand what personal information is. It includes things like contacts, calendar, and emails.
This back end service exists because, in the past, programs were all doing their own thing, but now KDE provides that information as a service. With a standard API. So you can have two programs installed that manage your contacts, and they're both using the same list of contacts. Same with your calendar. Back in the day, if you used two different programs to store contacts, you would have two databases of contacts.
Calling that bloatware is just stupid. It's literally a core service that a useful operating system should provide.
In addition, learn how to use a search engine instead of posting in the forum like this. It was trivial to find out how to disable it permanently. Trivial! Asking us to do your work for you and then tacking on a "conversation starter" at the end doesn't make your post any more palatable.
