We may share information we collect about you within the ELLTA Company, our subsidiaries, members, parent, and affiliates worldwide.
From time to time we may enter into an arrangement with another company that is not owned by or affiliated with us to provide additional features on the Sites. These arrangements may include business partners, sponsors, and co-branded online services (referred to here as “co-branded services”). Any information, including personal information, that you provide on one of these co-branded services may be shared with these partners.

Separate privacy policies may apply to these partners’ uses of your personal information.
We may use vendors to help us operate our business and the Sites, or administer activities on our behalf, such as sending emails, promotion or loyalty program administration, Sites maintenance, customer service, payment processing, web analytics, maintenance, online advertising, certain social media plug-in integrations, and security execution and clearing services. When we disclose personal information to vendors, we strive to enter into a contract requiring the recipient to keep that personal information confidential and only use it as necessary to perform business purposes or as otherwise permitted by applicable law. Our service providers may engage subcontractors to enable the service providers to perform services for us.
We may share your personal information in the event we sell or transfer all or a portion of our business assets (e.g., further to a merger, reorganization, liquidation, bankruptcy, or any other business transaction), including negotiations of such transactions.
Information, including personal information, may also be shared by us or our vendors: (i) as required or permitted by applicable law, which may include lawful access by local or foreign courts, law enforcement, or other government authorities; (ii) where we determine that disclosure of specific information is necessary to comply with the request of a law enforcement or regulatory agency or other legal process; (iii) necessary to support any audit, or to comply with similar corporate governance functions; (iii) to enforce our policies, or to protect our or others’ legal rights, property, or safety, or (iv) when you otherwise consent or direct us to share information, such as where you use the Sites to send direct messages to others or interact with external parties directly.
We may operate sweepstakes, contests, raffles, and similar promotions (each, a “Promotion”) jointly sponsored or offered by third parties that may require registration or submitting personal information. If you choose to participate in a Promotion, your personal information may be disclosed to third parties as described in the terms applicable to that Promotion. By participating in a Promotion, you are agreeing to the official rules that govern that Promotion, which may contain specific requirements of you, including, except where prohibited by law, allowing the sponsor(s) of the Promotion to use your name, voice, likeness, or other indicia of persona in advertising or marketing associated with the Promotion. If you choose to enter a Promotion, your personal information may be disclosed to third parties or the public in connection with the administration of such Promotion, including, without limitation, in connection with winner selection, prize fulfillment, and as required by law or permitted by the Promotion’s official rules, such as on a winners list.

We may, subject to law, need to verify your identity and the validity of the request before fulfilling your request. This includes verifying to a high degree of certainty for certain choices you may make and depending on the sensitivity of the personal information.
Authorized agents who meet the agency or power of attorney requirements under law may submit requests on behalf of an individual. We may require authorized agents to provide information as required by law such as a verifiable written authorization from the individual that the agent has the individual’s permission to submit the request.
Note that if some of the personal information we maintain is not sufficiently associated with personal information we have verified to be related to the identity of the requestor, we will not include such information in response to the request. Applicable law may require or permit us to decline your request. For example, without limitation, where we do not maintain the personal information in a searchable or reasonably accessible format and where we maintain the personal information solely for legal or compliance purposes. If we decline your request, we will tell you why, subject to legal restrictions.

If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.
Our responses to privacy requests may be subject to legal requirements, such as responding to you within a certain timeframe, in which case we will provide you information about the process of your request.
