Service Providers have access to your Personal Information only to perform these tasks on our behalf and are obligated not to disclose or use it for any other purpose.

Payment Processors. We engage payment processors to process credit or debit card transactions on our behalf. The personal information needed to process your transaction will be collected by the payment processor—not by us—and will be subject to the processor's privacy policy, rather than this Privacy Policy.

These data analytics providers may also use the aggregated data they collect on our Website for their own purposes. For information about restricting collection of your web usage data, see the section of this Privacy Policy titled "How to Restrict Cookies, Other Internet Tracking Technologies, and Personalized Advertising."

Marketing and Advertising Services. Outside Attorneys may use third-party marketing and advertising services to help us identify, and reach, individuals who may be interested in our services. These services also may help us to deliver marketing campaigns through general or personalized digital advertising and direct e-mail messages.

For information about restricting these activities, see the sections of this Privacy Policy titled "How to Opt-Out of E-mail Marketing" and "How to Restrict Cookies, Other Internet Tracking Technologies, and Personalized Advertising."

Certain Transactions. We may share your Personal Information as we believe is reasonably necessary in connection with business transactions such as a transfer or sale to another entity of all or a portion of our stock or assets or a business reorganization.

How to Opt-Out of E-mail Marketing
