• Disclosures to Provide the Services

The categories of third parties with whom we may share your personal information are described below.

• Third Parties You Share or Interact With. Our Services may allow Rex Engine users to share personal information or interact with third parties.

For example, when someone uses our Services to share or interact with a Brand and/or Retailer, Rex Engine may share personal information it has collected from the individual with the Brand and/or Retailer for its own, independent purposes (including marketing purposes). In some cases, Brands and/or Retailers may also collect personal information from users of the Services who interact with them.

Any personal information shared with or otherwise collected by a Brand and/or Retailer will also be subject to the Brand and/or Retailer’s privacy policy.

In addition, if someone shares personal information or interacts with other members of a Brand and/or Retailer community via the Services, they may have access to or otherwise collect the information shared. Any information you provide using the public sharing features of the Services will be considered “public.”

We are not responsible for the processing of personal information by third parties you share or interact with.

• Service Providers. We may disclose personal information to our third-party service providers and vendors that assist us with the provision of the Services.

Once your personal information is shared with our business partner, it will also be subject to our business partner’s privacy policy. We are not responsible for the processing of personal information by our business partners.

• Brands and/or Retailers (Authorized Users Only). In cases where you use our Services as an employee, contractor, or other authorized user of a Brand and/or Retailer, that Brand and/or Retailer may access information associated with your use of the Services including usage data and the contents of the communications and files associated with your account.

These advertising partners may use this information (and similar information collected from other services) for purposes of delivering personalized advertisements to you when you visit digital properties within their networks. This practice is commonly referred to as “interest-based advertising” or “personalized advertising”.

We may access, preserve, and disclose any information we store associated with you to external parties if we, in good faith, believe doing so is required or appropriate to: comply with law enforcement or national security requests and legal process, such as a court order or subpoena; protect your, our, or others’ rights, property, or safety; enforce our policies or contracts; collect amounts owed to us; or assist with an investigation or prosecution of suspected or actual illegal activity.
