    I'd like to know

    when I use a mobile phone with the mobile applications to visit a site (e.g. a discussion board or any other sites)

    What kinds of information about my mobile phone could they be able to obtain from my visit?

    In addition to what I explicitly agree when asked by the apps with pop up question windows, what kind

    of other information could they obtain from me? Could they know my IMEI or the model of the phone?

    In addition, is the IMEI the only item to distinguish the uniqueness of a mobile device?
