Unfortunately it looks like they may share your data with third parties, which includes their parent company, mail.ru. I personally don’t trust them.

There's an open source version of Maps.me with no tracking on Fdroid for those on Android. It's called "Maps" https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.github.axet.maps/
Oh wow, I wasn’t aware of this. I will definitely be re-evaluating them…
I switched from maps.me to osmand recently after I found out about the 20 tracker dependencies on the Exodus Privacy app. osmand has zero trackers and so many cool features that I use. Love it :)
There's a version that removes "ads and binaries" on F-Droid: Maps (Offline OpenStreetMap maps) - https://f-droid.org/app/com.github.axet.maps
