According to the source, data hunger is defined as follows:
"We created a unique measurement system to evaluate each game's data collection habits. The system assigns a score based on the quantity and hunger of the data collected. We sourced this information directly from the app developers on the App Store. Our point system is simple:
1 point for data not linked to a user's identity (like app crash data);
2 points for data linked to a user's identity (like your name);
3 points for data that could potentially track you on apps and websites (like your user ID).
Moreover, according to our measurement system, the sum of the points increases by 20% if the game shares any data with third-party advertisers."
