According to their site they are useing the RTL8156.

Hopefully these are using a newer chipset than the Realtek RTL8125 based ones that have been out for several years.  The RTL8125 family powers 95% of the 2.5Gbe dongle adaptors on the market today and they are prone to overheating very quickly during sustained transfers (which is what you want 2.5Gbe or higher ethernet for).  

XP-Pen do not track you when you are using their drawing tablet or software. They do not log you apps, launches or configurations. 

What you are linking to, is about when you visit them on their website, Twitter, FB et al when they and the rest of the world log their users.

You can go with tablets from XP-Pen.com instead. They do not log anything in regard to what you do. 

Their quality is high and price is very acceptable. 

No, we do not track or log our users' usage of the apps or anything through the driver or anything downloaded from our website. Our user's privacy is a concern of ours and there is no need to track anything of what they are doing or using.

Careful.  You're advocating for XP-Pen based on a false assumption.  To be fair, they may be a great company, but what you're praising (They do not log anything in regard to what you do) simply isn't true.  So that I'm clear, I'm not saying XP-Pen did anything wrong.  I am saying you misinterpreted what you read and drew and incorrect conclusion.

That excerpt you quoted is about the driver only, not XP-Pen as a whole (as your claim implies).  Their privacy policy https://www.xp-pen.com/page/Privacy_Policy.html provides better clarity.  Relevant excerpt:

C. DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL DATA
We may disclose and transfer your Personal Data to our partners and to service providers engaged by us to assist us to provide services to you or who otherwise process Personal Data for purposes described in this Privacy Policy or notified to you when we collect your Personal Data.  Examples of these partners or service providers include:

Does any of this sound similar to what Wacom discloses?  When companies make claims about privacy it's always best to see what their privacy policy says instead of relying on cleverly worded releases.  To be even more fair, XP-Pen and Wacom are not alone in their data sharing.  You can look at the privacy policy of almost any of your favorite companies and find the exact same thing.
