We do not sell personal information. We may share information in the following circumstances:

These providers are bound by confidentiality obligations and may only use your information to perform services for us.
- Legal requirements. We may disclose information if required to do so by law, subpoena, or other legal process, or if we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others.
- Business transfers. If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction.
4. Your Choices
- Marketing communications. You can opt out of marketing emails by following the unsubscribe instructions in any marketing message we send. We may still send you transactional or service-related communications.
- Cookies. Most browsers allow you to refuse cookies or alert you when cookies are being sent. If you disable cookies, some parts of the Site may not function properly.
- Do Not Track. We do not currently respond to Do Not Track signals.
