@initCCG Florian answered most already so I just want to add a few things:
The P2P network monitoring has no privileged access to anything. The data is either public so anyone could observe and collect that or it is private (encrypted P2P messages). There are a few areas like the above mentioned price nodes which can be used to collect data which is not publicly accessible but we are 100% open source and the available data is either an onion address (that is public in the offer anyway of you make an offer as otherwise the taker could not connect to you) or a UID which is only used to have a connection identifies uniquely. 
The concept of Bisq has it's limitations reagarding privacy as @freimair mentioned in the first place the revealing of your name to the trade peer for doing a Fiat transfer. For altcoins the privacy level is much higher but also there one should be aware of the risks of chainanalysis on the blockchain level and other conceptual limitations (using the same onion address for many trades,...).  
This attempt here is to improve and protect the P2P network. We have not moved to data collection business ;-).
