Definition of Personal Information

Personal information is information that identifies or could reasonably be used to identify a specific person. It does not include deidentified (anonymized or pseudonymized) information or aggregated information derived from personal information. We do not collect sensitive personal information, such as Social Security numbers, driver's license numbers, health or medical data, precise geolocation, or full financial account details. Payment information is handled solely by secure third-party processors and is not stored by us.

We may collect personal information and other information about you or your devices from various sources, as described below.
