However, to make it easier for you to review the parts of this Policy that apply to you, we have divided up the document into sections that are specifically applicable to Customers, Contacts, and Visitors.

We are not responsible for third-party integrators and in no case are such integration providers our sub-processors.</li> <li> <strong> <em>Compliance with Legal Obligations.</em> </strong> We may disclose your Personal Information to a third party if (i) we reasonably believe that disclosure is compelled by applicable law, regulation, legal process, or a government request (including to meet national security, emergency services, or law enforcement requirements), (ii) to enforce our agreements and policies, (iii) to protect the security or integrity of our services and products, (iv) to protect ourselves, our other customers, or the public from harm or illegal activities, or (v) to respond to an emergency which we believe in good faith requires us to disclose data to assist in preventing a death or serious bodily injury.

Further, we may object to requests we do not believe were issued properly.</li> <li> <strong> <em>Business transfers.</em> </strong> If we go through a corporate sale, merger, reorganization, dissolution or similar event, data we gather from you may be part of the assets transferred or shared in connection with the due diligence for any such transaction.

In certain cases, we may also have a legal obligation to collect Personal Information from you.</p> <p>If we ask you to provide Personal Information to comply with a legal requirement or to perform a contract with you, we will make this clear at the relevant time and advise you whether the provision of your Personal Information is mandatory or not (as well as of the possible consequences if you do not provide your Personal Information). Similarly, if we collect and use your Personal Information in reliance on our legitimate interests (or those of any third party), we will make clear to you at the relevant time what those legitimate interests are.</p> <strong> <em>How to Make Choices About Your Personal Information</em> </strong> <p> <strong> <em>For Customers</em> </strong> </p> <p>You can make various choices about collection and retention of your Personal Information through the associated account portal, such as accessing it, correcting it, deleting it, or updating your choices about how it is used.
