Unopened Tabs - Are They Always Live/Updating?

Hi All,

If you have 20 or so unopened tabs, each is a different website, are they communicating with their servers in real time, updating, etc.? Or does the content on these tabs only go live when the tab is opened? My concern is that by having several tabs unopened I am allowing numerous servers to constantly collect data on my browsing habits and phone.

Sorry, this might be a silly question.
