Did you click the link, https://gist.github.com/maxidorius/5736fd09c9194b7a6dc03b6b8d7220d0 ?

It has many components that Riot phones home to often, some are mentioned "in a small print" that you have to understand in login screen or settings (even if you cannot change them) or follow some rooms actively to understand and some aren't even mentioned anywhere such as the integration server Scalar.
