  • Respond to your requests for information relating to our services.
  • For our research and development efforts. We use data, including public feedback, to conduct research and for the development of the Site and the services and products we provide to you.

  • Change in control or sale. Certain business transactions, such as a sale, acquisition, merger, change in control, or preparation for any of these events, may require us to disclose your personal information. In such cases, we will take appropriate steps under the circumstances and to the extent possible to ensure that the recipient agrees to provide privacy protections similar to those established by this Policy. Any entity that acquires all or substantially all of the Company’s assets will have the right to continue using your data consistent with this Policy or as otherwise agreed to by you.
