With respect to any third-party client company with which you elect to do business, you should carefully review that company’s Privacy Policy to ascertain how that company will collect, use, store and disclose the information it receives.

If you notify the Company that you wish to deactivate Your Profile, the Company will retain such information as required by applicable laws, and might retain such information for an additional period of time that it deems appropriate (the “retention period”), subject to any restrictions imposed by applicable laws. During such retention period the Company will not disclose Your Profile to any third party other than (i) to a third-party client company to which it has previously disclosed Your Profile pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy, (ii) to a government agency, or (iii) in connection with a legal proceeding in which the Company or a third-party client company is a party.
In circumstances that the Company determines to be appropriate or required by law, the Company, at its discretion, will disclose Your Information to a government agency, a law enforcement official or a court; and will provide you with prior notification of any such disclosure to the extent the Company in its good-faith judgment determines such notification to be legally required or advisable.
