We may disclose your personal information in accordance with express or implied consents that you may give during your interactions or transactions with us.
We may disclose your personal information to our suppliers and service providers to assist us in the provision of information, products and services to you, or to assist us in using your personal information as set out in this Privacy Policy and as otherwise permitted by applicable law.
We will not distribute or sell your Personal Information to any outside company for marketing or solicitation of any product not associated with us. Your personal information will only be used to support your relationship with us and our suppliers and partners.
There are certain limited instances where we may disclose or transfer Personal Information other than as described above. For example, as we continue to develop our business, we may buy or sell certain business assets. In such transactions, customer information may be one of the transferred business assets. However, we are not in the business of selling customer information to others, and aside from certain exceptional circumstances, we will take appropriate measures to ensure the protection of the information you provide to us.
Additionally, we may disclose your personal information as required or authorized by applicable law, including to comply with a subpoena, warrant or court or arbitral order or litigation disclosure obligation. We may disclose your personal information to law enforcement agencies or other independent organizations if we reasonably believe the disclosure is necessary or appropriate to protect and enforce our legal rights, interests and remedies or to protect the rights, interests, business or operations of our customers or other persons (including to detect and prevent fraud and other illegal activities, enforce any of the terms of use, terms of service or other agreements that govern access to or use of any of our products or services). We have no control over, or responsibility for, the use, disclosure or retention of your personal information by the agencies, independent organizations or other persons to whom we disclose your information in the foregoing circumstances, and the use, disclosure and retention of the disclosed information by those agencies, independent organizations or other persons is not subject to this Privacy Policy.
Retention
If you submit your personal information to us, we will retain that personal information for the period reasonably necessary for the purposes set out or referenced in this Privacy Policy and to comply with our legal obligations or enforce or protect our legal rights, or a longer period required or permitted by applicable law. We will delete or dispose of your personal information, or depersonalize the information, when we are no longer reasonably required to retain the information for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy.
Protection of Personal Information
If you submit your personal information to us, we will use reasonable safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the personal information to help protect the information from unauthorized access, collection, use, disclosure, deletion or similar risks. Nevertheless, security risks cannot be eliminated and we cannot guarantee that your personal information will not be accessed, used, disclosed or deleted in ways not otherwise described in this Privacy Policy.
