When and how do we share your personal information with third parties?
eSSETS does not use your personal information for purposes incompatible with those listed above. eSSETS does not sell, rent, or share your personal information to a third party unless you consent or direct that we do so to a third party partner or content service.
In some cases, access to certain services, such as content subscription products or products distributed by third parties, may require the provision of personal information to a third party, such as a content provider or distributor. In such cases, this will be stated during the registration process, in the terms of use, through the distribution process, or in a similar manner. The third party’s use of such information is governed by that party’s privacy policy, and eSSETS’ use is governed by this privacy policy. Please visit the privacy policy of the content partner to make sure you understand how they use the personal information you provide to them. If you do not wish for such a transfer to take place, you should not register for the applicable product or service.
eSSETS may disclose relevant information about our customers to our contractors (e.g. a customer service contractor or a credit card clearing service) in order for them to provide specific services for eSSETS, and to better serve our customers. eSSETS contractors are bound by specific contractual requirements to keep all personal information they process strictly confidential and to use such information solely on behalf of eSSETS.
Also, eSSETS may disclose your personal information if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) conform to the requirements of the law; (b) comply with the order of a competent judicial authority in any jurisdiction; (c) comply with legal process served on eSSETS; (d) protect and defend the rights or property of eSSETS; or (e) act in urgent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of eSSETS services or the public at large.
