The clause establishes both a permitted use of personal data for communications and the absence of any opt-out right for those communications, removing user control over this category of data use.
Interpretive note: The evidence span cuts off mid-sentence at 'Because this information is important to', so the opt-out restriction — though named in the clause name and strongly implied — is not fully captured in the quoted excerpt. The canonical claim merges two propositions (permitted use and no opt-out); the no-opt-out element is the primary consumer-facing effect and is recorded in omitted_material for transparency.
Users cannot opt out of important notices — such as those about purchases and policy changes — that Apple App Store may send using their personal data.
