Third-Party Data Sharing and Disclosure
Compliance with Law or Protection of Rights. We may disclose information we collect, including your PII, when we, in good faith, believe disclosure is appropriate to comply with the law, a court order, or a subpoena. We may also disclose your PII to prevent or investigate a possible crime, such as fraud or identity theft; to protect the security of the Site or Services; to enforce or apply any applicable terms of use or other agreements; or to protect our own rights or property, or the rights, property, or safety of others. We may also disclose PII as permitted or required by applicable law to government and regulatory organizations, such as the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
Business Negotiations. We may contemplate, for strategic or other reasons, selling, buying, merging, or otherwise reorganizing our businesses. In negotiating with a third party about entering into such an arrangement, we may need to disclose your PII. In such cases, we will take reasonable measures to protect the PII we disclose, for example, by requiring a prospective partner or purchaser to sign a non-disclosure agreement limiting the use and protecting the confidentiality of the information.
Business Transfers. We may transfer the information you submit on or through the Site or Services, including PII, to a partner or buyer or other successor in the event of a merger, divestiture, transfer of control, restructuring, reorganization, dissolution, or other sale or transfer of some or all of our assets, whether as a going concern or as part of bankruptcy, liquidation, or similar proceeding, in which PII held by Pinnacle, a subsidiary, or an affiliated company about our Site’s and Service’s users is among the assets transferred.
Vendors. We may from time to time retain third-party vendors in order to help us manage the Site and Services and allow us to better serve our visitors and customers. These may include third-party vendors we engage to analyze the information we collect for marketing or similar purposes.
We may contract with third parties who use cookies to collect information on our behalf. These parties maintain their own confidentiality and security standards. We may contract with companies or others to provide certain services, including data management and promotional services. We provide these service providers with the information they need to perform these services.
We may also share information, including PII, to third-party vendors to help us provide the Services. For example, we may use a cloud-service provider to host information we collect or other aspects of our Services. Such vendors have access to PII for a limited purpose and for a limited period of time.
We do not disclosure PII to third parties for their own direct marketing purposes.
