What information? If you erase the device, all information on it will be gone.

There is no magical method involved in Apple's actions with regard to lost and stolen devices. If you have FindMy active you can make certain things happen. But there is no guarantee any of those options will find your device.

Here's how you use FindMy: Set up Find My on Mac - Apple Support

If your device is lost or stolen: If your Mac is lost or stolen - Apple Support

Using FindMy: Find your lost Apple device or AirTag with Find My - Apple Support
