If you do not want your callendar, addressbook, etc. on the web, do not synchronize them, your choice (Call me what you think about that choice when your phone dies or get stolen).
If you connect to internet, what you do can be seen by others if they really want to, no matter what software you use, if you sync or not...
If you send e-mail, recipient and your addresses with all the content you are aware and not can be seen by others.
If you think that you can protect yourself from it you are obviously clueless about state of the current information technology.
Also, with the apps you have choice to use them or not. Some collect data, some not. Some will collect data always, some not if you pay, your choice.
"why should information disappear when a synch app is disabled"
Have no idea what App and in what context. I keep sync off for most of the apps most of the time so that they do not drain a battery and they work fine.
I did not drink cool aid, I just live in a reality. Like where having a smarphone is not luxury but need. I do not know what you do for a living but I would not keep my job for long if I would not have and use my smartphone.
