Not that I can see offhand. It mentions using your email for correspondence and copyright disputes.

There's a third case that I never considered.

Google SSO is the promoted way of signing in and it auto assigns your email to the username without any special characters so scammers could just be scraping new accounts and making a best guess at the email.

Lame.
