4. Other Websites We have included links on this Website for your use and reference. We are not responsible for the privacy policies on these other websites. You should be aware that the privacy policies of these websites may differ from our own.
Additionally, any personal information you provide to others apart from our vendors or us is wholly optional. As an example, you might disclose something in a blog post comment. That private information is now public, and we have no control over that. In like fashion, you sharing information with any other third party not functioning as a service provider to us puts that information beyond our control and becomes subject to the policy that party has in place.
When we share your information
1. With our employees Our employees help us provide quality services to our clients and customers. They are all trained and made aware of company policies, specifically concerning protecting confidential information and personal data and our privacy obligations
2. With third-party service providers There are instances where your information is stored with third-party service providers, such as email service providers, as they provide services that are industry-leading in quality and security and are far more beneficial to our end user than attempting such services in-house. You are never required to deal with any such third party directly, they are limited in how they use your information, and they cannot sell or transfer it to others in any way.
3. Because we are legally required to While we are staunch privacy advocates, there are times when even we may be forced to abandon these ideals. Just as major search engines face ongoing compulsion to provide data against their will, so too may the same occur with our Website. Illegal activity or other serious acts or allegations could create legal liability for our Website. In those cases, we reserve the right to share your information, or else may simply be compelled to do so by law. On the other hand, there may be times when we would need to share your private information in order to protect our own interests. For instance, in cases of suspected or alleged copyright infringement or other intellectual property violations, it may be necessary to share personal information.
What do we do to safeguard your personal data? We have implemented various policies and safeguards to protect your personal data against loss or theft as well as unauthorized access and disclosure. We also use best efforts to ensure third parties who work with us also agree to protect your data. Unfortunately, transmission of information over the internet is not completely secure. Although we endeavor to do our best, we cannot guarantee that your data will be secure when transmitted to our Website. Upon receipt of your personal information, we will use security features and procedures to try to prevent unauthorized access. Other useful information
