I suspect that what you meant to say here is that you're making user's data not valuable for those purposes, but what you've literally said is that you're making it incredibly valuable for those purposes.

"Invaluable" means "having incalculable monetary, intellectual, or spiritual worth"

Yes, we’re making this data not valuable by design, since it cannot be linked back to the originating user to report browsing history, etc.
