What does this means?
Tbh, if you don't know what that means, you can't trust it.
Though, it means that unless it's running locally on your own hardware and not in the cloud and you haven't verified the source code directly (or someone else you trust hasn't) then assume it is nefarious and do not give it any personal or sensitive information you wouldn't want anyone on the Internet to know.
Could you please explain what "personal or sensitive info" means?
Any data related to your person. (name, contacts, date of birth, etc.) Search "PII" or "personally identifiable information" if you want to read more about that.
