6.7. Disclosure to Third Parties, Service Providers, and Others

DiasporaEngager may make certain personal information available to strategic partners that work with DiasporaEngager to provide products and services, or that help DiasporaEngager market to customers. For example, when you visit our Website, or purchase our products and services, you authorize DiasporaEngager and its carriers to exchange some of the information you provide during the transaction to carry out service with us and our partners. If you are approved for service, your account will be governed by DiasporaEngager and its carrier’s respective privacy policies. Personal information will only be shared by DiasporaEngager to provide or improve our products, services and advertising; it will not be shared with third parties for their marketing purposes.

 

DiasporaEngager may share personal information with companies who provide services such as information processing, extending credit, fulfilling customer orders, delivering products to you, managing and enhancing customer data, providing customer service, assessing your interest in our products and services, and conducting customer research or satisfaction surveys. These companies are obligated to protect your information and may be located wherever DiasporaEngager operates.

 

It may be necessary − by law, legal process, litigation, and/or requests from public and governmental authorities within or outside your country of residence − for DiasporaEngager to disclose your personal information. We may also disclose information about you if we determine that for purposes of national security, law enforcement, or other issues of public importance, disclosure is necessary or appropriate.

We may also disclose information about you if we determine that disclosure is reasonably necessary to enforce our terms and conditions or protect our operations or Users. Additionally, in the event of a reorganization, merger, or sale we may transfer any and all personal information we collect to the relevant third party.

 

Some DiasporaEngager products may be co-branded and offered together with or via a partner company. If you register for or use such products, you consent to both DiasporaEngager and the partner company’s use of personal data collected in connection with the co-branded product. DiasporaEngager may offer its products in connection with other websites or services or may team with other online services to give you the combined results of both products/services or additional services and benefits. To determine whether you would benefit from the combined offer, if you have provided your consent, DiasporaEngager may match your email address, and email addresses of your contacts against email addresses you have provided to the third party website/service provider.

 

The link between your IP address and your personally identifiable information is not shared with third parties without your permission, except in compliance with legal process.

 

6.8. Disclosures to Others as the Result of a Change in Control or Sale of DiasporaEngager Company or Service

As DiasporaEngager continues to develop its business, we might sell or buy subsidiaries or business units. In any such transactions in which DiasporaEngager or substantially all of its assets are acquired by a third party, personal information of DiasporaEngager Users will generally be one of the transferred business assets. We reserve the right to include your personal information in any such transfer to a third party. So we may also disclose your personal information and other information you provide to another third party as part of a sale of the assets of Diaspora Engager, a subsidiary or division, or as the result of a change in control of the company. Any third party to which DiasporaEngager transfers or sells DiasporaEngager’s assets will have the right to continue to use the personal and other information that you provide to us.

 

7. Security and Protection of Personal Information

DiasporaEngager takes precautions to safeguard your personal information against loss, theft, and misuse, as well as against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction.

DiasporaEngager online services use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption on certain web pages where personal information is collected. To use some of our Service, you may be asked to use an SSL-enabled browser such as Safari, Firefox, or Chrome. The web browser you use may affect the effectiveness of the encryption. Internet Explorer may not support/work for certain SSL encryption/protection, so we recommend you to choose your web browser wisely.

Doing so protects the confidentiality of your personal information while it’s transmitted over the Internet. We recommend that you do NOT share your log in information with others.

The personal information you share when you use some DiasporaEngager products, services, or applications or when you post on a DiasporaEngager forum, chat room, or social networking service, is visible to other Users and can be read, collected, or used by them. You are responsible for the personal information you choose to submit in these instances. For example, if you list your name and email address in a forum posting, that information is public. To help us protect your data, please take care when using these features and while sharing information with others.

 

At all times, you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your unique password and account information and for controlling access to your email communications. You are also fully responsible for all activities that occur under your username and password. You agree to immediately notify DiasporaEngager of any unauthorized use of your username or password or any other breach of security, and to ensure that you exit from your account at the end of each session. DiasporaEngager will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with this provision. You should be cautious when accessing your account from a public or shared computer so that others are not able to view or record your password or other personal information. If you share your computer with others, you may wish to consider disabling your auto-sign in feature (e.g. if you have linked your Window's Live ID to your DiasporaEngager account).

 

Since the internet is an unsecure environment, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to DiasporaEngager. There is NO guarantee that information may not be accessed, copied, disclosed, altered, or destroyed by breach of any of our physical, technical, or managerial safeguards.

 

Finally, to ensure your personal data is secure, we communicate our Privacy Policy to DiasporaEngager employees and strictly enforce privacy safeguards within our company.

 

8. Retention of Personal Information

DiasporaEngager may retain your information for so long as your account is active or as needed to provide you services.

We may decline to process requests that are unreasonably repetitive, require disproportionate technical effort, jeopardize the privacy of others, are extremely impractical, or for which access is not otherwise required by local law. Please be aware that even after your request for a change is processed, DiasporaEngager may, for a time, retain residual information about you in its backup and/or archival copies of its database.

If you close your account, we have no obligation to retain your information, and we may delete any or all of your account information without liability. However, we may retain certain data contributed by you if DiasporaEngager believes it may be necessary to prevent fraud or future abuse, or for legitimate business purposes, such as analysis of aggregated, non-personally identifiable data, account recovery, or if required by law. DiasporaEngager may also retain and use your information if necessary to provide the Service to other Users. Information you have shared with others, or that other Users have copied, may also remain visible. DiasporaEngager disclaims any liability in relation to the deletion or retention (subject to the terms herein) of information or any obligation not to delete the information.

Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator shall be final and may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

 

This Agreement or any claim, cause of action or dispute (“claim”) arising out of or related to this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the state of Georgia regardless of your country of origin or where you access DiasporaEngager, and notwithstanding of any conflicts of law principles and the United Nations Convention for the International Sale of Goods.

If you comply with our Privacy Policies and Terms of Use Agreement, we grant you a limited, revocable, nonexclusive, nonassignable, nonsublicenseable license and right to access the DiasporaEngager Service, through a generally available web browser, mobile device or application (but not through scraping, spidering, crawling or other technology or software used to access data without the express written consent of DiasporaEngager or its Users), view information and use the Service that we provide on DiasporaEngager webpages and in accordance with this Agreement.
