We share your personal information only when it is necessary to offer the Website, legally required, or permitted by you. We share personal information with third parties as follows:
​
-
Service providers: We share personal information to third party service providers to help us bring you the Website or respond to your enquiries.

Additionally, we will access and share account or other personal information when we believe it is necessary to comply with law, to protect our interests or property, to prevent fraud or other illegal activity perpetrated through the Website, or to prevent imminent harm. This will include accessing and sharing personal information with other companies, professional advisors (such as lawyers, auditors and insurers), agents or government agencies, or law enforcement authorities.

We share information about you that has been aggregated or anonymized, including activity data (see above), such that it cannot reasonably be used to identify you in any way for any lawful business purpose.
7. How Long We Retain Information
We only retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including for the purposes of satisfying legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.
​
In some circumstances we may anonymize your personal information (so that it can no longer be associated with you) in which case we may use this information indefinitely without further notice to you.
8. Securing Information
We have implemented technical and organizational measures we consider appropriate to protect the confidentiality, integrity and availability of your personal information. However, we cannot guarantee that our safeguards will never be defeated, and information disclosed in a manner inconsistent with this Privacy Policy (for example, because of unauthorized acts by third parties that violate applicable law).
9. International Transfers
We are based in the United States and so information is transferred to and accessed by our personnel in the United States. By using the Website, you consent to the processing, transfer and storage of your information in and to the United States and other countries, where you may not have the same rights as you do under your local law. We will process your personal information in accordance with applicable law and with this Privacy Policy regardless of where your personal information is stored or accessed.
​
By providing your personal information through or in connection with the Website you acknowledge that your personal information is transferred to and accessed by our personnel in the United States.
​
Additional information for European users
​
Where our service providers or other third parties (identified above) based outside the European Economic Area receive personal information, we ensure the transfer is either (a) to a country deemed to provide an adequate level of protection by the European Commission or (b) pursuant to specific contracts approved by the European Commission.

We will comply with any rights provided to you under applicable law.
​
You may also contact us to exercise any rights provided to you in relation to any personal information that you have provided to us. We may not accommodate a request to change information if believe the change would violate any law or legal requirement or cause the information to be incorrect.
