    Third Party Service Providers

    Providing a great experience is our outmost priority. To do so, we work with third-party vendors, service providers, and other partners to help us provide the service by performing tasks on our behalf. We may need to share or provide information (including personal information) to them to help them perform these functions, for example: sending emails on our behalf, database management services, database hosting, providing customer support software, and security. These service providers do not have the right to use your personal information we share with them beyond what is necessary to assist us with our business functions. Additionally, these service providers must adhere to confidentiality and security obligations in a way that is consistent with this Privacy Policy.

    You can find information about these partners and service providers we work with below, including what data we share with them or that they provide to us and the service they provide for us.

    This list may change over time, and we’ll work hard to keep it up-to-date. If you have any questions, please get in touch here.
