The thing is, humans are astonishingly good at conserving energy when running. We can literally run prey to death by just keeping on going when most animals run out of energy.

These things are usually buried somewhere in the small print, and it might even have been in some “hey, look at this exciting new prek we git you” email from your employer when you/they joined the scheme. It might have been something like “Any items we provide to assist with member’s physical therapy remain the property of <evilcorp> at all times, and must be returned at the end of the therapy”.

Just treat the tablet as what it was provided as, a way to access their app, and be ready to return it afterwards.

Bear in mind that they already have your home address, as they sent the tablet to you, that address is geolocated, and anyone with a phobe passing near you will have enumerated any wifi networks and possibly bluetooth too and geolocated those.

They already know what devices are around you unless there’s not been a phone within range since you got them.

You were sent the tablet in order to be able to access the the app they provide. I strongly suspect that it is actually a loan, and they will want it back when you are finished with it. Given that, you shouldn’t even attempt to root it. Use it for what it is intended for, gain some benefit from that, hopefully get your massager, and return the tablet when you’re finished with it.

Unless you deliberately give them more information, there’s not much new they can gain about your environment from the tablet. What you do in the app is going to be much more valuable data to them as it’ll give them information about you and your health that they could not gain any other way.
