Finally, we may use your information to protect our rights or property, or to protect someone's health, safety or welfare, and to comply with a law or regulation, court order or other legal process. 

Data Retention

 We will retain your personal information for as long as needed to provide you services, comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements.

We May Share Information with Third Parties

We will not share your information collected from the Site with an unrelated third party without your permission, except as otherwise provided in this Privacy Policy or in an agreement with you. In the ordinary course of business, we may share your information with companies that we hire to perform services or functions on our behalf.  In all cases in which we share your information with a third party for the purpose of providing a service to us, we will prohibit them from keeping, disclosing or using your information except for the purpose of providing the services we asked them to provide. We will not sell exchange or publish your information, except in conjunction with a corporate sale, merger, dissolution, or acquisition. 

We may be legally compelled to release your information in response to a court order, subpoena, search warrant, law or regulation. We may cooperate with law enforcement authorities in investigating and prosecuting Site visitors who violate our rules or engage in behavior which is harmful to other visitors (or illegal).  We also may disclose your information to third parties if we feel that the disclosure is necessary to protect our rights or property, protect someone's health, safety or welfare, or to comply with a law or regulation, court order or other legal process.
