At the time of collection, We will clearly identify the information being collected and the purposes for which it will be used.  It is always your choice whether or not to provide Personal Information but if you choose not to provide certain requested Personal Information, in some instances you may not be able to register for an account to use the Website and Services or be able to access and use the Website or Services at all. In other instances, your choice not to provide certain other Personal Information may mean that you will not be able to use certain features of the Website, App and Services.  We may collect Personal Information when you register for an account on the Website, App and/or Services, during communications with you and/or when you make purchases through the Services, through user support, and/or by way of user surveys.
