I got one such message on the past March, in one account only (the one 
used on the phone). But mine had "Decide by September 15, 2024"

«If you take no action, your visits and routes will be deleted, and your 
Timeline settings will be turned off after September 15, 2024.»

I have timeline working, so I must have done what they said, but I have 
forgotten. I probably used the app.

Mine is in Spanish, so I can't say.

Yet the email was in English.
