We have to do this to enable or disable certain device specific features. We may also make a record of this information on our server if it is required for statistical purposes (for example we want to see how many users are on Windows Phone) or for the functionality of the app.

You can manually delete your account using the ‘Delete Account’ feature in the app from the top menu. This will delete your account and details from our server. This action can not be reversed and we will retain any backup of the deleted data.
