This is the only way we can be sure that it is Your own email address and that You really are You.
-
Your Password: To protect Your account, we provide Your account with a password unless You choose to register using Google or Microsoft. Your password is not stored in clear text, so even in the unlikely event of a hacker attack, it is still safe

-
Your Profile Image: If You register with us via a service such as Google or Microsoft, we will take Your profile picture if You have one stored with that service.

You can change or delete Your picture at any time.
-
Your Messaging Token: To let You know if someone has contacted You via our app or if there is any other information we want to share with You, we need to send You notifications like You know from WhatsApp or other messengers.
