There is no data mining/profiling in Googles educational offering (also no ads, which there is in regular Gmail):

> Google Workspace for Education Core Services (like Gmail, Google Calendar, Classroom, and more) have no ads, and student information in Core Services is never used to create profiles for ad targeting, or sold to third parties.[1]

Makes sense. Get them used to using Google services, or else someone else will step in and do it.

Same reason Microsoft used to give all sorts of free licenses to students.
