Users for I've-Been-Violated just put in name, phone number, and email. It also documents location, sound, and video when you activate the service.
The other two apps require registration with the system, though if you register for one, you aren't able to just use the same login for the other. The registration just asks for email and password. Not sure if it asks for more later, as the app was really glitchy when I tried.
