When we use third party service providers, we disclose only the personal information that is necessary to deliver the service and we have a contract in place that requires them to keep your information secure and not to use it for their own direct marketing purposes. We would only release your information to a third party outside of this if required to do so legally, for example, to comply with a legal obligation or to enforce or apply our terms of use or to protect the rights, property or safety of our clients.
