Even though you chose those settings during setup, its worth having a look through settings > privacy.
I noticed that even though I chose 'don't send any usage data' or whatever it was called during setup, that it was still set to 'Enhanced' in settings > privacy > Feedback & Diagnostics > Send your data to Microsoft.
It isn't even possible to set it to 'don't send anything'.
Also, if you work through all the options in settings > privacy you will notice that there is loads of stuff set to allow apps access by default, such as cameras, microphones, non-tethered devices on open wifi networks etc.
Also take note of these potential future EU anti-trust court cases, especially if you are on metered connection -
Automatic sharing of wifi login details with Facebook, Skype and other contacts - see settings > Network & Internet > WiFi > Manage Wi-Fi Settings > Connect to networks shared by my contacts
Bit torrent peer to peer updates via WAN - Settings > Updates & Security > Advanced Options > Choose How Updates Are Delivered - set it to 'PCs on my local network'
