Fields designated for mandatory completion are explicitly indicated. If you do not enter the requisite data in the mandatory fields, you will not be able to complete the relevant contact form. It is important that you understand there is no requirement by law for you to provide us with your personal details – the information you share with us is entirely voluntary, and you may avoid providing such information either by not filling in specific forms or by disabling cookies (please see more information on that in the Cookies section).

By providing any Personal Information to us you warrant and represent that the information you provide is complete, accurate, and correct. Your failure to do so will likely result in our being unable to contact you about your inquiries. It is your responsibility to update us if any of the information you provided is no longer correct or accurate and inform us of the required updates.

Joint Controllership

Currently, we do not jointly determine the purposes and means of processing Personal Information with any third-party (a “joint controller”). If a joint controller situation is established in regard to your Personal Information, the essence of the legal arrangement between us and such other controller shall be made available to you upon request.

Sharing of Information with Third Parties

We do not, and currently do not intend to, sell any of your Personal Information to any third party. We will not transfer your personal details or any information collected pertaining to your activities on the Website (provided that such details and information identify you personally) to any third party, except in the following cases (or as otherwise outlined in this Privacy Notice):

  • If we reasonably believe that you have breached the Terms of Use or performed any act or omission that we reasonably believe to be violating any applicable law, rules, or regulations, we may share your information with law enforcement and other competent authorities and with any third party that may consult with us or assist in connection with any such breach as may be required to handle any result of your wrongdoing including without limitation, in order to contain, remediate, prevent, investigate any such breach, and/or establish or exercise any of our legal rights.

Furthermore, your Personal Information may be disclosed:

  • In any case of dispute, or legal proceeding of any kind between you and us, or between you and other users or third parties.
  • In any case where we may reasonably believe that sharing information is necessary to prevent serious damage to you or to your property or to any third party or their property.
  • If we organize the operation of the Website within a different framework, or through another legal structure or entity, or if we are acquired by, or merged with another entity, provided however, that those entities agree to be bound by the provisions of this Privacy Notice.
