Although it may be possible to turn off the collection of cookies through your device, that may interfere with your use of the Service.
Part of the purpose of the Service is to share materials you make available. Anything you publicly post or that is available publicly will not be considered Personal Information or User Content, and will be outside the restrictions of this policy.
