If you want to use “Flirt/Community” functionality on an ongoing basis we may also receive from time to time and store your geolocation whenever the Service is running. You may be able to limit or disallow our use of location data through the device by adjusting the "Location" settings for our app settings; please note that in this case you limit or disallow us to provide certain Service functions.
