Blackberry and privacy

Hi guys,

I'm going to be shopping around for a new phone soon and I recently I'm tired and sick of companies like Google and Apple having ulterior motives with their phones, such as using users to collect location data of for their other services. I know I probably sound like a conspiracy theorist right now, but I guess I am old-school and just want my privacy.

So my question is this: Is there still any mobile phone OS that doesn't do that kind of stuff at any chance they get? More specifically, do blackberries do location tracking or have other privacy issues?

Many thanks in advance!
