Hi
In my Facebook Apps Developer area there is a warning for my application:

"App Review submission required by 1 08 2018 г. to retain access to Facebook Platform APIs
The Facebook App Review process and API permissions model have been updated. Learn more.
In order to maintain your current API access, your app will need to be submitted for review by 1 августа 2018 г. If your app is not submitted for review by this date, you will lose access to the following permissions and features:
user_friends
user_link
user_gender
user_age_range .............."

But, in my site, in the App Review section in the admin area are displayed these permissions:

"Scopes Requested:
Profiles :
email - Allows reading the user's email address. This scope does not need to go through the review process.
Channels :
manage_pages - Allows your JFBConnect to list the Facebook Pages of the user that grants the permission.
publish_pages - Used to publish content from your site to Facebook Pages.
groups_access_member_info - Allows your JFBConnect to list the Facebook Groups of the user that grants the permission.
publish_to_groups - Used to publish content from your site to Facebook Groups."

Can I ignore Facebook's warning?
If I ignore the warning, will I still have access to my Facebook application?

Facebook's alert message is incorrect. If your app uses *any* permissions, Facebook is sending the same generic message to everyone. It's annoying because it adds a lot of confusion to the matter. You only need to go through the app review process for the fields that JFBConnect actually requests (as shown in the App Review section).

From everything Facebook has communicated, you will not lose all access to your Facebook application if you don't go through the approval process. The only thing that may happen is that you will lose access to the specific permissions that haven't been approved. By default, you can request basic profile information (name, email, etc) from users without going through the approval process.

I hope that helps explain,
Alex
