      They make smart watches, and half the features of these smart watches are health and fitness data.

    Somewhat misleading. The data is only deleted from your samsung account if you refuse, but you can still keep and track it on device.

    Yes, that can we worded much better but the grammar checking people and software developing people have different communication styles.
