KlondikeGeoff,

The link you included is that of the Google Play store and it isn't possible to download anything directly to your Kindle Fire unless your Fire is rooted and the Play Store app is installed on the tablet. I think perhaps you were asked for personal information because the site was attempting to register you and your device. I cannot recall exactly what information I had to provide in order to register. You cannot register unless you have an Android device which is capable of installing the Google Play app, and the modified version of Android running on the Kindle doesn't qualify.

Edited to remove confusing/erroneous information.
