If you downloaded it, did it start trying to gather info before or after you downloaded it?

I didn't download it yet. An app cannot collect data if it's not even finished downloading. And even if it did finish downloading, I doubt it runs without being first tapped on, even then, the app will need to ask permissions first, which I ain't gonna grant any. You can click cancel immediately after clicking download, then you are allowed to rate the app.
