We collect and store information that you voluntarily provide to us as well as data related to your Site visit or Application usage. In some areas of the Site or Application, we may request that you provide personally identifiable information, including your email address and other information from which your identity is or may be discernible. We may also solicit your responses to survey questions or other inquiries incorporated into the products and services we provide.

In addition, during your visit to the Site or Application we automatically collect certain aggregate information and analytical data related to your Site visit and Application usage (see “Use of Cookies” below).

If the subpoena seeks information about an identified user or limited group of users, we’ll make reasonable business efforts to contact the user(s) before providing information to the party that requests it. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to contact the user(s) in all cases, whether because of a time limit, court order, inability to effectively contact a user, or for any other reason. We may disclose information to your agent or legal representative (such as the holder of a power of attorney that you grant, or a guardian appointed for you).We share information with companies that provide public relations and marketing services for us.

As with any other business, it is possible that in the future we could merge with or be acquired by another company. If such an acquisition occurs, the successor company would have access to the information maintained by us, including customer account information, but would continue to be bound by this Policy unless and until it is amended. We share your information with our parent, subsidiaries and joint ventures to help coordinate the products and services we provide to you, enforce our terms and conditions, and promote trust and safety.
