does a purchase simply hide the ads or do they still run in the background, collecting data and tracking and draining battery?
I read in another post, that the ad library is not initialized anymore after purchasing ad-free. So no, it's not just out of sight, but really not running in the background anymore. Can't confirm if it's true, but it makes sense and would be correct approach by the dev.
It unloads the ad library, and the next time you open it won't be initialized
