We may share the information we collect about you with third parties:
to enable our third party partners to perform services for us. For instance, such information may be shared with companies that operate or help us operate our Service, perform authentication or analytics, or send emails on our behalf. Some of these third parties may wish to use such information for their own purposes. See the section entitled “Your Choices” below for your options to opt out; if you have indicated to us that you wish to receive notifications or promotional messages or content from one of our partners. See the section entitled “Your Choices” below for your options to opt out;
to enable the processing of the payments you make to us on our behalf;
if we believe we are required by law to do so, or if we believe that the disclosure is required or necessary to protect our rights and/or comply with a court order, subpoena or other legal process;
if we believe that it is required by law enforcement in order to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, or a potential threat to our Service or to a third party;
if we share your email address with our preferred emailing partner for the purpose of sending third party email promotions on our behalf;

with any affiliate, parent or subsidiary company of ours, with an entity who acquires us, or with a successor to all or part of our business. For example, if part of our business was sold we may give our customer files as part of that transaction.
Cross device linking
Some of our third party partners may engage in establishing connections between a User’s devices to provide interest-based advertising and/or analytics across devices. Cross-device connections allow the partner to understand that a single user is accessing Service-related ads or content from multiple devices, and to synchronize or target advertising messages or content and/or measure performance across those devices. If you would like more information about this practice and to know your choices with respect to it, please: (1) visit the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page to learn how to opt out of having your information collected in browsers for ad serving purposes; and (2) visit our Partners Page to opt-out of individual third party partners’ cross-device linking, in cases where such partners’ activities are not covered by the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page.
Your choices
You can opt out of receiving our marketing emails. To stop receiving our promotional emails, please click the unsubscribe link in the email. Even if you opt out of marketing messages, we will still send you transactional messages, which include Service-related communications and responses to your questions.
You may unsubscribe at any time from receiving any promotional emails from our third party partners, by clicking the “unsubscribe” link in the email.
You may opt out of tailored advertising from many of our third party partners by visiting the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page or the Digital Advertising Alliance opt-out page. Some of these partners maintain their own opt-out functionality, which is shown on our Partners Page. Please visit that page to opt out of individual partners not covered by the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page or the Digital Advertising Alliance opt-out page.
Your browser may give you the ability to control cookies or other tracking tools. How you do so depends on the type of tool. Certain browsers can be set to reject browser cookies. However, if you block cookies, certain features of the Service may not work.
Users may also opt-out of certain advertising features through applicable device settings, such as the device advertising settings for mobile phones or ads settings in general.
Some websites have “do not track” features that allow you to tell a website not to track you. These features are not all uniform. We do not currently respond to those signals.

We will generally deal with requests within one month. We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and/or the jurisdiction in which you reside. If your request is complicated or if you have made a large number of requests, it may take us longer. We will let you know if we need longer than one month to respond.
There may be exceptions to the rights for specific legal reasons which, if applicable, we will set out for you in response to your request. For instance, if you ask for your Account to be closed, we will do this as soon as reasonably possible, subject to any applicable terms and conditions relating to the Account. If permitted by law, personal data from closed Accounts may be retained in order to comply with legal obligations, prevent fraud or resolve disputes.
In addition to the rights above, residents of the European Economic Area also have the right to lodge a complaint with your relevant supervisory authority. However, we encourage you to contact us first, and we will do our very best to resolve your concern.
Legal bases for use of your personal data
The laws in some jurisdictions require companies to tell you about the legal ground they rely on to use or disclose your personal data. To the extent those laws apply, our legal grounds are as follows:
To honor our contractual commitments to you.
Consent: Where required by law, and in some other cases, we handle personal data on the basis of your consent. Where you have provided consent, you may withdraw your consent at any time for future data uses.

Providing a positive user experience;
Providing Customer service;
Marketing;
Protecting our Service;
Analyzing and improving our business; and
Managing legal issues.
