NDCA membership is a real-world membership. Dues are paid by card in the app and processed by Stripe. You will not see ads in the app. It carries no advertising software, and the only outside software in it that looks at your device is Stripe's fraud check. The app does keep a count of which screens get opened so the NDCA can see how it is working; those counts stay with the NDCA, and the privacy policy explains exactly what deleting your account does to them.
