Yes, usually they know your name (you have to register) and which apps (or HDMI ports if you do not run apps) you run and for how long. That's about it. Google knows way, way more about me.
I mean, even a cursory search on Google shows that smart TVs can gather a hell of a lot more data than just that, up to and including analyzing the actual video being displayed to figure out what you're watching
Yes, that's worrisome.
