When we transfer your Personal Information to adequate jurisdiction, we rely on the decision by the European Commission that says that those countries are considered to provide an adequate level of data protection.

Furthermore, information about you may also be released in order to comply with any valid legal obligation or inquiry or process such as a search warrant, subpoena, statute or court order. We may also share your Personal Information with government agencies or other relevant parties, such as a law office or independent auditor if we believe that such disclosure is appropriate to protect our rights, property, goodwill or safety (including the enforcement of the Terms of Use and this Privacy Notice) or those of a third party.
