Is Valorant's Anticheat Spyware?

Since I enjoy playing competitive multiplayer FPS games, many times I have been asked why I don’t play Valorant. I know my reasons very well but explaining them is always uncomfortable since I know most people don’t care for that type of details or they think that someone having such knowledge might be suspicious. I totally disagree with them but I also don’t care enough to have an extensive argument with them so I just say anything to brush the questioning.
