Does an open source keyboard exist for iOS that respect your privacy?

Does apple get what you type on the keyboard in their servers?

    Apple gets your voice recordings which for various privacy laws they can’t resell. “Yay wiretap laws from the 50s”

    As for typing, a quick search, apple support claims that the keyboard cache is only used for autocorrect purposes. How often you use a word and how you like to spell it.

    Having it function as a keylogger would give them a headache, from data use, battery life, hackers exploiting it, etc.

    And of course the warnings seem targeted at third party keyboards who can add on extra feature beyond IOS barebones.
