We also may use the information we obtain about you in other ways for which we provide specific notice at the time of collection.

We may disclose aggregated information about our users, and information that does not identify any individual user, without restriction. We may disclose personal information about you:

• To service providers as set forth in the section “Use of Information by Third Parties that are Agents of Global Expansion,” below;

Should such a sale, merger, or transfer occur, we will use reasonable efforts to direct the transferee to use your personal information in a manner that is consistent with our Privacy Policy.

Global Expansion will use reasonable methods to secure all personal information by a variety of methods, including restricting access to such information only to those people who have a legitimate need to know in order to discharge their job responsibilities on behalf of Global Expansion, securing access to the facility where the information is stored, and the use of technology and physical controls to secure the information. Global Expansion is required to disclose personal information in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.

We will retain personal information we collect from you where we have an ongoing legitimate business need to do so (for example, to provide you with a service you have requested or to comply with applicable legal, tax, or accounting requirements).

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize it or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

Global Expansion will require that all third parties that are acting on behalf of Global Expansion, and to which personal or sensitive information is provided, give Global Expansion adequate assurances that they will safeguard all such information in a manner consistent with both this Privacy Policy and the EU-U.S. and the Swiss-U.S. DPFs. Global Expansion’ accountability for personal data that it receives under the DPFs and subsequently transfers to a third party is described in the Principles. In particular, Global Expansion remains responsible and liable under the Principles if third-party agents that it engages to process the personal data on its behalf do so in a manner inconsistent with the Principles, unless Global Expansion proves that it is not responsible for the event giving rise to the damage.
