Question about 3rd party keyboards

If I enable full access on a 3rd party keyboard, will it transmit the information I type only on that 3rd party keyboard or everything I type on any keyboard?

iPhone SE, iOS 16

"This is a virtual 3rd party keyboard on my iPhone, not a physical one on a mac. By transmit I mean transmit to the developer’s servers for processing, not transmit to my system. Furthermore, there is no way for me to tell what is transmitted unless I work for the 3rd party keyboard developer’s company. Sorry about any confusion."

Using a Third-Party Keyboard:

Try the keyboard, and find out. Look on the original packing, verifying if it is compatible with your macOS; if if is incompatible, then it will not work 100%.
