You will have the choice whether or not to disclose certain Personal Information in the above activities; however, some parts of the App and some services may be more difficult or impossible to use if you choose not to disclose Personal Information and your experience in using the App will not be as personally tailored. Certain Personal Information must be disclosed before you will be able to access any part of the App. While not all of the information that we collect from you is personally identifiable, it may be associated with personally identifiable information that you provide us through the App or otherwise.
