    Other Ways We May Collect, Use, or Share the Information

    We may also reserve the right to collect, use, or share personal information for the following purposes:

    • Based on your consent or direction. Throughout the course of using our Services, you may be provided with additional opportunities to consent to the disclosure of your personal information with various third parties. In these circumstances, the Company will provide you with clear and specific notice of the opportunity in order to obtain your consent.
    • For legal purposes. We reserve the right to cooperate with local, provincial, state, federal and international officials in any investigation requiring either personal information or reports about lawful or unlawful user activity on this site. We also reserve the right to share your personal information to establish, exercise, or defend our legal and property rights, including providing information to others for the purposes of fraud prevention. We may also share your personal information (i) if we are ordered by a legal process or government to do so, or (ii) with any person who we reasonably believe may apply to a court or other competent authority for disclosure of that personal information where, in our reasonable opinion, such court or authority would be reasonably likely to order disclosure of that personal information.
    • Business transactions or mergers. We reserve the right to share your personal information to third parties as part of any potential business or asset sale, merger, acquisition, investment, round of funding, or similar type of transaction. Additionally, if we are entering into a corporate transaction with a third party, we may receive personal information in connection with the diligence. If we close a transaction, the third party may transfer personal information, which we would use as described in this Policy.
    • Bankruptcy or insolvency. In the event of bankruptcy, insolvency, or dissolution proceedings, we may share your personal information with third parties as part of the sale or reorganization process.
    • Service Providers. With service providers who perform services on our behalf. Any such service provider will be under an obligation to us to maintain the confidentiality of your personal information.
    • Our partners, affiliates, and subsidiaries. We may collect information from—or share information with—our partners such as market research firms, financial services partners, and our affiliates, subsidiaries, joint ventures, or other companies under common control. We may combine that information with other information we collect about you. Furthermore, all information gathered about you by the Company may be shared with any of the Company's current or future subsidiaries or affiliates.

    We will not disclose your information except as provided for in this Policy.

    Information Regarding Automated Profiling

    We rely on certain types of automated processing in order to prevent, detect, and protect against fraud, identity theft, and other illegal activities. Under some privacy laws, this processing may constitute “profiling.” This means that we use automated programs that analyze your Contact Information, Payment Information, Commercial History, and Financial Information automatically and without human assistance in order to detect indicators of fraud and verify your identity. We do not report the results of such automated profiling to credit bureaus.

    This system provides benefits to our consumers by increasing the speed of the decision-making process, decreasing its cost, and preventing consumers and the general public from the harms of fraud and identity theft. We also periodically review the functionality of these systems to ensure their accuracy and fairness and mitigate any risks associated with their use. However, as with any eligibility determination, our automated profiling system may not have access to all relevant information or may process information that is, or that you believe to be, inaccurate, which may negatively impact the outcome of the eligibility determination.

    Our automated profiling system is essential to the provision of our Services. We cannot feasibly offer a manual alternative to automated profiling fraud and identity theft detection and prevention. As a result, if you opt-out of automated profiling for this purpose, we will be unable to provide you with our Services.

    If you wish to opt-out of Automated Profiling, you may refuse to provide your consent at the time your consent for such profiling is requested. Additionally, you may submit a request to correct or delete in accordance with the “Exercising Your Rights” portion of Section 4 below.

When you broadcast this signal, we will not transmit your personal information to third parties who perform analytics services or who advertise to you based on this information. Please note that your use of our website will still be tracked by the Company and its service providers who have agreed to limit their use of personal information.

We reserve the right to take additional steps as necessary to verify the identity of California consumers where we have reason to believe a request is fraudulent.

If you choose to use an Authorized Agent, we require that you provide the Authorized Agent with written permission to allow them to submit your request and that you verify your identity directly with us. Failure to do so may result in us denying your request.
