This Privacy Policy describes the personal information we may collect about you, both directly or indirectly, how and why we may collect, use and share your personal information, and the choices you have regarding your personal information.
We operate primarily in the United States, where each U.S. state has different laws and regulations governing the collection, use, and sharing of personal information. Some of our customers and Site users may reside outside of the United States, where different privacy laws and regulations apply. This Privacy Policy describes our general privacy practices related to personal information and also contains Supplemental Information required by other jurisdictions, including California and the European Economic Area, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.

This may include, for example, cloud service providers, marketing service providers, IT service providers, and professional service advisors.

This data collection takes place both on this Site and on third-party Sites that participate in the advertising networks. When you view or interact with an advertisement, the advertiser may make the assumption that you are interested in the subject matter of the advertisements.

As part of this type of transaction, we reserve the right to transfer or assign your personal information to third parties. Other than to the extent ordered by a bankruptcy or other court, or as otherwise agreed to by you, the use and disclosure of all transferred user information will be subject to this Privacy Policy.
We need to comply with legal requirements
We may disclose your information to government authorities or other third parties if any lawful circumstances arise, including when:
- You have given us permission to share your information;
- We are required to do so by law, or in response to a subpoena or court order;
- We believe in our sole discretion that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect against fraud, or to protect our employees, property or other rights, or those of other users of the Site, third parties, or the public at large; or

How We Respond to “Do Not Track” Settings or Signals
Some Internet browsers offer a “Do Not Track” preference. When you turn on the Do Not Track signal, your browser sends a message to websites requesting that you not be tracked. Our Site respects this setting, so if you’ve enabled it, we won’t track your activity on our site.
How We Secure Your Personal Data
We apply industry accepted technical, physical and organizational security measures that are designed to protect your personal information against misuse, accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, and unauthorized disclosure or access using a risk-based approach. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, no method of transmission over the Internet or form of electronic storage is 100 percent secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
Data Retention
We will retain your personal information in accordance with our record retention requirements and policies, which reflect business and legal considerations. We will retain your personal information for the time period reasonably necessary to achieve the business purposes described in this Privacy Policy or any other notice provided at the time of collection. Your personal information may be retained longer if required or permitted by applicable law.
