This personal information is required to provide Site and services to you.

-
For the performance of our contract with you or to take steps at your request before entering into a contract (i.e. to enable you to access the Site and to operate it and provide you its features and functionality);
-
For our legitimate interests or those of a third party (i.e. to minimize fraud that could be damaging for us and for you, to make sure we are following our own internal procedures so we can deliver the best service to you, to be as efficient as we can so we can deliver the best service for you at the best price, to protect trade secrets and other commercially valuable information, to prevent and detect criminal activity that could be damaging for us and for you, and to make sure that we can keep in touch with our customers about existing services and new services); or
-
Where you have given consent.
-
A legitimate interest is when we have a business or commercial reason to use your information, so long as this is not overridden by your own rights and interests.
We may also anonymize, aggregate or de-identify personal information so the end-product does not identify you or any other individual. For example, we may use this information to generate norms by industry, geography, level, etc., enable us to understand where our services are being utilized, conduct ongoing validation studies, compile reports, and improve the services. Such aggregated, anonymized or de-identified information is not considered personal information for purposes of this Privacy Policy and we may use it for any purpose.
7. Who We Share Your Personal Information With.
We routinely share personal information with:
-
Service providers we use to help deliver our Site and services to you; and

We only allow our service providers to handle your personal information if we are satisfied they take appropriate measures to protect your personal information.
We may disclose and exchange information with law enforcement agencies and regulatory bodies to comply with our legal and regulatory obligations.
We may also need to share some personal information with other parties, such as potential buyers of some or all of our business or during a re-structuring. We will typically anonymize information, but this may not always be possible. The recipient of the information will be bound by confidentiality obligations.
