You're safe lol the permissions sound scarier than they actually are.

If you have Facebook, Instagram, Whatsapp, etc. on your phone, those actually harvest more data from you than an org app will. I believe Starbucks uses VMWare for their app ecosystem, and IIRC it actually gets audited by the government annually because of all the private data it contains. VMWare does not monitor app usage or anything outside of the app itself.

saw someone explain this really well once and im now going to do a very shitty- half remember version of that. basically you give it permission to view everything you download within that first download? like within that private hub…the vpm thing. so it can only really access ur work app, not anything else.
