I'm very careful to eliminate any telemetry. I block all the addresses that SwiftKey uses to phone home so there's no communication between my keyboard and the host servers. This technique can be used with most apps to kill any telemetry that may be employed.

Smart move 👌🏼 my smooth brain hasn't stretched that far 🤣
It's pretty easy with a good DNS blocker. I use personalDNSfilter. You can block entire domains, of just specific hosts. It's got a console that shows you all the requests that happening in real-time so you can launch an app, and watch the console to see all the hosts it's contacting. What I do is start off blocking them all, then I carefully unblock one by one to arrive at the perfect config that allows the proper functioning of the app while blocking all the unnecessary shit.
👌🏼thanks for the tip, I will look into this 😁
I do this too... Fuck Microsoft
