Third parties must agree to use the Personal Information we provide to them only for the purposes for which they have been engaged and must either: (a) comply with the EU-US Privacy Shield Principles or another mechanism permitted by the applicable EU & Swiss data protection law(s) for transfers and processing of Personal Information; or (b) agree to provide adequate protections for the Personal Information that are no less protective than those set out in this Privacy Policy. If we learn such an entity is using or disclosing Personal Information in a manner contrary to this Privacy Policy, we will take reasonable and appropriate steps to prevent, remediate or stop the use or disclosure. Please be aware that we will disclose Personal Information in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including meeting national security or law enforcement requirements.
