Something you should probably understand about Amazon is that their Leadership Principles are real, and customer obsession is their main focus.
A big part of customer obsession is not eroding the trust of customers by treating their privacy as extremely important. For example, I've never heard of an incident in the more than two decades that Amazon.com has been in business of them selling customer data to a 3rd party for marketing purposes or otherwise. They wouldn't do something that could erode customer trust, or would be anti-customer, because they are in business for the long haul. Customer trust can only be earned slowly, over time, but can evaporate instantly with one mistake.
I trust Amazon more than Google and others to protect my customer data, because they've frankly earned this trust over 20+ years.
