APNs

I have a couple questions about the renewal and usage of APNs SSL Certificates for an app.

  1. Why does Xcode include push notifications when setting up iCloud?

  2. If my app will only ever use local notifications do I need to configure APN SSL Certificates for the app?

  3. I have an app that Im getting notified my APN certificates will expire soon. The app does not use Push Notifications so do I need to renew the certificates?

Sorry for the newbie questions, I'm just unsure about this part.
