Is this Facebook?
It's Outlook trying to be like Facebook
I guess I appreciate that there's a "reject all" button and it's not grayed out... Not sure if it's because they were required to not hide it, though.

No, I think they're being literal. There is value that they want in your privacy.
- We value your privacy (in a twisted way)
- Our company's value (increases with access to) your privacy
Or the idea of the title and text was to create a paradox like: The following statement is true. // The preceding statement is false.
At least they are (forced to be) honest ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I like the rest of the wording, too. They'd like to process arbitrary data from the device. And third parties act out of their own motivation as long as it is their legitimate interest...
Use 'REJECT ALL'.
