How to track what telemetry an Android app sends home (lemm.ee)

Pretty much the title. I'm trying to find some ammunition to fight my HOA on wasting our money. They make us use an app to gain access to amenities, and I want to see what telemetry the app sends back or what it may track.

I tried TrackerControl, but the app (alarm.com) doesn't pop up in its feed.

For me I just refuse to use any app to access a service. I can tolerate websites.
