2. OPERATING SYSTEM PERMISSIONS

2.1. Android mobile platforms have defined certain types of device data that apps cannot access without your consent. These platforms have different permission systems for obtaining your consent. Android devices will notify you of the permissions that our App seeks before you first use the App, and your use of the App constitutes your consent. Sometimes these permissions require more explanation than the Platforms themselves provide, and the permissions we request will change over time.
