  1. HOW WE SHARE PERSONAL INFORMATION

Generally, we disclose personal information as necessary to provide legal services to our clients, including to opposing counsel. We also share personal information among our service providers and other third parties as described below:

Service Providers

From time to time, we may use business partners, suppliers, and sub-contractors to assist us with the provision of services to you (for example, without limitation, website hosting, web analytics, maintenance services, database management, billing, payment processing, fraud protection, credit risk reduction, marketing, product research, or improvement of services). These entities have access to your personal information only to perform the respective tasks assigned to them on our behalf, and are obligated not to disclose or use it for any other purpose.

Third Parties

We may share personal information with third parties for the purposes set forth in this Policy, including advertising networks, data analytics providers, government entities, internet service providers, operating systems and platforms, and social networks.

Other Reasons for Which We Will Share Personal Information

We may cooperate with government and law enforcement officials as required by applicable law and/or in the course of legal proceedings. If you give us permission, or if we believe doing so is required or appropriate, we may disclose personal information to government or law enforcement officials or private parties in response to lawful requests, comply with a legal obligation, enforce or apply our terms and conditions, protect our services, our rights, and/or the safety of the public or any person, or prevent or stop any illegal, unethical or legally actionable activity (including fraud protection).

We may share some or all your personal information in connection with or during negotiation of any merger, financing, acquisition or dissolution transaction, or proceeding involving sale, transfer, divestiture, or disclosure of all or a portion of our business or assets. In the event of an insolvency, bankruptcy, or receivership, personal information may also be transferred as a business asset. If another company or individual acquires our business, or assets, that company or individual will possess the personal information collected by us and will assume the rights and obligations regarding your personal information as described in this Policy.
