Answer

Does it record anything about my visitors?

Updated Redirects 1.8.1Tested with WordPress 7.1

No. No addresses, no names, no fingerprints, nothing that follows anybody anywhere.

What is kept is which page was asked for, how many times, and the page that linked to it — which is a page rather than a person. The linking page is kept without anything after a question mark, because that part can carry a key or a tag that belongs to one visitor. On a site with plain permalinks, the part that names one of your own pages (?p=12) stays. Nothing leaves your site.
