Explanation:
not English>Polish, here's your answer:
to explicitly ask in this context means that the information has to be asked for deliberately and on purpose, that is, not through a regular default setting, etc. The user must actively and specifically ask for the information. Hope this helps. If not, perhaps you might want to put this in the En>PolishEn category.
