iPhone vs Android - eviltoast

At the moment I am thinking about getting a new phone in the foreseeable future. I was long time using android, but switched to iOS 5 years ago because of the longer update period. Now also some android devices offer a longer update support of about 5 years. Now I am thinking about switching back to android.

But i am wondering: is there any big difference from a privacy perspective between iOS and android? I know you can go for custom roms on android that are focused on privacy which i also used in the past, but i am not planning on doing this in the future. So it would come down to stock android vs stock iOS. Any advice there or is all lost anyway?

    So hoping apple is not selling my data, because they make enough money with their hardware sales?

    More or less, yes. Because they don’t need the money.

    How does the add business of google affect my privacy?

    Google’s whole business model is selling your private data. Or which product did you buy from them?
