We may also anonymize, aggregate or de-identify personal information so the end-product does not identify you or any other individual. For example, we may use this information to generate norms by industry, geography, level, etc., enable us to understand where our services are being utilized, conduct ongoing validation studies, compile reports, and improve the services. Such aggregated, anonymized or de-identified information is not considered personal information for purposes of this Privacy Policy and we may use it for any purpose.

9.    Who We Share Your Personal Information With. We may share personal information with:

•    Service providers we use to help deliver our products and/or services to you, such as call center operators and corporate credit facility lenders, co-counsel, local counsel, opposing counsel, regulators, and other third parties, as reasonably required to provide professional service(s) requested by our clients;

•    Third parties we use to help us run our business, such as marketing agencies, website hosts, vendors, consultants, professional advisors, and other service providers working on our behalf in connection with the administration and operation of our firm, to support our marketing programs, and other services related to meeting our clients’ legal needs;

•    Third parties approved by you, including social media sites you choose to link your account to and appropriate resources we recommend if we cannot serve you for any number of reasons including, but not limited to, inability to operate in the state of request or lack of eligible debt; and

•    Credit reporting agencies, creditors, credit card companies, collection agencies, banks, and other entities and individuals specifically necessary to effect, administer and perform our services.

We only allow our service providers to handle your personal information if we are satisfied they take appropriate measures to protect your personal information. We also impose contractual obligations on service providers relating to ensure they can only use your personal information to provide services to us and to you. 

We may disclose and exchange information with law enforcement agencies, government agencies in response to subpoenas, court orders or other forms of legal process, and regulatory bodies to comply with our legal and regulatory obligations. We may elect to share information when, in our reasonable judgment, such sharing is necessary or appropriate for the investigation or prevention of illegal activities, including actual or suspected fraud, real or potential threats and for other legal reasons, such as to enforce our legal and contractual rights or to protect our rights, privacy, safety, or property or that of our affiliates, you, or others.

We may also need to share some personal information with other parties, such as potential buyers of some or all of our business or during a re-structuring. We will typically anonymize information, but this may not always be possible. The recipient of the information will be bound by confidentiality obligations.

10.    How Long Your Personal Information Will Be Kept. We will keep your personal information while you have an account with us or while we are providing products or services to you. Thereafter, we will keep your personal information for as long as is necessary:

•    To respond to any questions, complaints or claims made by you or on your behalf;

•    To show that we treated you fairly; or

•    To keep records required by law.

We will not retain your personal information for longer than necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy. Different retention periods apply for different types of personal information. To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of the personal information, the purposes for which we process your personal information, and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements

11.    Children and our Site. Our Site is not directed to children, and you may not use our Site if you are under the age of 18. If you are under 18, do not use our services, access the Site, or provide any information about yourself including, without limitation, your name, address, email address or any screen name or user name you may use. If we learn that we have collected or received personal information from a child under 13 without verification of parental consent, in compliance with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act, we will purge such information from our database and cancel the corresponding accounts. If you believe we may have any information from or about a child under 13, please see our “How to Contact Us” Section below. Please visit the FTC's website at www.ftc.gov for tips on protecting children's privacy online.

12.    Keeping Your Personal Information Secure. We use reasonable and appropriate physical, technical, and administrative safeguards to protect your information from unauthorized use, access, loss, misuse, alteration, or destruction. We limit access to your personal information to those who have a genuine business need to access it. Those processing your information will do so only in an authorized manner and are subject to a duty of confidentiality. We also require that third party service providers acting on our behalf or with whom we share your information also provide appropriate security measures in accordance with industry standards. We also have procedures in place to deal with any suspected data security breach. We will notify you and any applicable regulator of a suspected data security breach where we are legally required to do so.

However, no computer system or information can ever be fully protected against every possible hazard, including when information is transmitted over the internet. As such, COMPANY CANNOT GUARANTEE SECURITY. COMPANY ASSUMES NO RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY FOR DISCLOSURE OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION. WE DO NOT GUARANTEE THAT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION WILL NOT BE MISUSED BY THIRD PARTIES. WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR CIRCUMVENTION OF ANY PRIVACY SETTINGS OR SECURITY FEATURES.
