We do not authorize service providers to use or disclose the information except as necessary to perform services on our behalf or comply with applicable law. We may share personal information if we are required to do so by law or legal process, in response to a request from government authorities, or if we believe disclosure is necessary to prevent personal harm or financial loss.
