The only ones that require user interaction are contacts, location, storage, microphone, camera.
Microphone is granted along camera. Camera is needed if you want to upload photos.(I might be wrong about the microphone)
Storage is always necessary for apps that cache anything from the web.
That leaves contacts and location.
So you can disable contacts and location, but all your metadata including device and network information is read and probably transmitted. In most cases it's good enough as location information as well.
