Will Galileo satellites track my phone?

Your phone calculates its position by combining signals from navigation satellites. These satellites only send out the signal to your phone but cannot track it.

However, some applications on your phone, such as ride sharing or mapping services, share your location with the application provider. This is done using your internet connection.

Your phone cannot send its location, or any other data for that matter, back to the satellites. The only devices that can send location data back to Galileo satellites are emergency beacons.
