We may disclose provided information to protect our operations and/or those of any of our affiliates and to protect our rights, privacy, safety and/or property, and/or that of our affiliates, you and/or other, and in pursuit of available remedies and/or limit the damages that we may sustain; and for recordkeeping purposes.

You agree that any information that does not personally identify you as an individual, may be used for any purpose, and we reserve the right to share this information with our affiliates and with other third parties, for any purpose.
