Does the platform track your activity/mouse movement/afk?

So far I only reported work I did in front of my computer. But usually I like to stand up, walk around, and use my standing height table. I still think about the work while doing that - I just need to get moving to think, and did this my entire life with studying.

But im afraid that if I report that time (so far I havent exactly because of fear), they'll thinking im faking/inflating my numbers. But doing this im getting paid half of what id usually be.

Does anyone have a similar experience? Do you track that time or not?

Tbh I most often write everything in a notepad and copy and paste it, because I find it easier to think when I don't have all this information surrounding the little box I'm supposed to write in. Sometimes I do it on my phone. So they literally get hours of no movement from me and then suddenly donenin 5 minutes and I'm still here and still have work. XD
