You may opt out of receiving marketing communications; however, despite your indicated email preferences, we may send you relevant notices where permitted by law.
Disclosure of Personal Information
We may from time to time employ other companies and people to perform tasks on our behalf and may need to share Personal Information with them. Unless we tell you differently, such third parties do not have any right to use the Personal Information we share with them beyond what is necessary to assist us. This includes third party companies and individuals employed by us to execute our investor relations and hiring and recruiting efforts.

- enforce our contracts or user agreement (Terms of Use), including investigation of potential violations hereof; and
- detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues.
We may disclose your Personal Information to third parties without your consent if we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be causing injury to or interference with (either intentionally or unintentionally) our rights or property, other Users, or anyone else (including the rights or property of anyone else) that could be harmed by such activities.
Further, we may disclose Personal Information when we believe in good faith that such disclosure is required by and in accordance with the law.

We will keep your Personal Information for as long as it remains necessary for the identified purpose or as required by law, which may extend beyond the termination of our relationship with you. We may retain certain data as necessary to prevent fraud or future abuse, or for legitimate business purposes, such as analysis of aggregated, non-personal Information, or if otherwise required by law. All retained Personal Information will remain subject to the terms of this Privacy Policy.
Accessing and Correcting Your Personal Information
You have the right to request access to your Personal Information, and to receive an accounting of how that information has been used and disclosed, subject to certain exceptions prescribed by law.

If your request is denied, we will notify you in writing of the reason for the denial.
You also have a right to challenge the accuracy and completeness of your Personal Information, and to have it amended as appropriate.
