We may disclose aggregated information about our users, and information that does not identify any individual, without restriction. We routinely share personal information with:
- Our affiliates, including companies within The Jacobson Group.
- Contractors, service providers, and other third parties we use to support our business and who are bound by contractual obligations to keep personal information confidential and use it only for the purposes for which we disclose it to them.

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.
Data Retention
We retain personal information we collect from you where we have an ongoing business need to do so (for example, to provide you with the service you have requested or to comply with applicable legal requirements).
When we have no ongoing business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize it or, if this is not possible (for example, because your personal information has been stored in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

With respect to your right to access and control your information, we comply with applicable data protection laws and regulations. We will process your rights requests in compliance with applicable data protection laws and regulations.
