@DookieDraws I actually stopped using my Razer Naga Epic MMORPG gaming mouse in part (the main reason being that it was old and worn out, had had the notorious double-click issue, which I had fixed, and) because Razer switched to requiring that you signed up with an email address for an online/cloud account in order to use their "Synapse" configuration software (the software that allows you configure mouse button bindings, virtual surround for positional audio, "Chroma" unified device LED color effects and many other device-specific functions (firmware upgrades, keyboard macros, etc). I chose to get a Roccat Nyth, instead, and have actually been much happier with it.
Even if you use a fake email address they are gathering information about color choices, macros, and games played (and much more if they set their software up to spy on your window and process lists) that is linked to your IP address, if not to a "real" email address Every new IP address you use, including any VPN IPs, are all linked together using that fake email address. In the end, your data is theirs.
