1. A method for providing information management of mobile device data, comprising: providing a user interface on a mobile device that is associated with a user, wherein the mobile device is a cellular telephone, a smart phone, or a tablet computing device; associating the mobile device with an information management system of an organization based on selections received via the user interface, wherein the information management system includes a server having a primary storage, wherein the server executes one or more information management policies to generate and store non-production copies of information stored by other servers that are associated with the information management system, and wherein the server stores the non-production copies in backup storage devices that are communicatively coupled via a network to the server; receiving user selectable options, via the user interface of the mobile device, for at least partially implementing a user-defined information management policy to be associated with the mobile device; wherein the received user selectable options include options for: defining or selecting first and second differing file types to transmit to the information management system; and defining first and second frequencies, for the respective first and second file types, at which to transmit to the information management system data having the first and second file types; and wherein the user selectable options include the following options: a first option for synchronizing and distributing the first file type with a first backup storage device; a second option for synchronizing and distributing the second file type with a second backup storage device, wherein the first and second backup storage devices are different storage devices; a third option for synchronizing and distributing a third file type with the first backup storage device; and a fourth option for synchronizing and distributing a fourth file type with the second backup storage device; transmitting to the server the information for implementing the user-defined information management policy for the mobile device to associate the user-defined information management policy for the mobile device; receiving instructions to override the user selected options in the user-defined information management policy that conflict with an information management policy of the organization, wherein the information management policy of the organization is a system-wide policy set by an administrator, wherein the instructions include instructions for modifying the user-defined information management policy implemented on the mobile device to a default information management policy in accordance with the information management policy of the organization; and transmitting data and metadata from the mobile device to the information management system in accordance with the information management policy for the mobile device.
