Does Avast share my data with third parties?

The reason why the avast UI contains an analytics module is to help us better understand its usage patterns. As you may remember, the UI in v8 has changed quite dramatically and we wanted to have a good way to understand how people actually use the UI, where are the hot spots, what’s the typical flows, where people are dropping out etc etc. This all with the hope that it will ultimately allow us to restructure the UI in a way that will suit best most of our users. We’re already taking some of these findings into account now while designing the v9 UI.
Avast team, please answer, why third party service google collect user data in UI in paid antivirus ? If:

I would say, as a user, that avast has become quite aggressive at collecting “analytics” and has been for a while
Anybody who can’t see that must have their head in the sand.
You should see the uproar and disgust in the CCleaner forum.
There is always a choice of apps but most are too lazy or complacent to do some research and change.
This is what avast and similar bank on.
Avast, why 3-rd party service Google still collection user data in UI in Avast Premier
shared with 3rd parties don’t allow
help improve other apps sending data don’t allow
