Makes sense, but I don't trust it to never be tied to PII.

That's definitely a question of implementation, policy, compliance, and liability. You are absolutely correct.
The law in question also requires data to be maintained in personally identifiable form. I am uncertain if a small number of mouse movements is likely to reach this. I do not see how, but that's not a reason why it cannot be so.
Of course, that also provides an easy way to comply. Don't store mouse movements in a way that ties them to PII under CalOPPA, and you don't meet any criteria.
