Real incident that happened to me just two days ago.

Caller: Please speak English. I have a few questions to ask. (African accent)
Me: Go ahead.
Caller: I am Amenda. 25 years old. I'm from xyz company. I have an offer for you. Are you interested?
Me: Sorry, I'm going to have to say no. I'm a little busy at the moment.
Caller: Okay. Please tell me your age.
Me: Isn't that a bit too personal?
Caller: But I told you mine.
Me: I don't care how old you are. I'm not giving you my age or any other personal information. Bye! (hung up)

Since I'm an english learner. A question has been bothering me for the last two days. I know the word 'information' is uncountable and there's no plural form. We either say 'information is' or 'a piece of information.'

Is 'any other' before 'information' correct?
Should I have said any other piece of personal information?

You've got more patience than me. If I answered a call from an unknown number and the caller opened with those words, that would have been that!
