        Specifically about personal data…

        Apple may engage third parties to act as our service providers and perform certain tasks on our behalf, such as processing or storing data, including personal data, in connection with your use of our services and delivering products to customers.

        As for anonymized aggregate data…

        Aggregated data is considered non‑personal data for the purposes of this Privacy Policy.
