   with requested services;

the privacy and security of personal information in accordance with our Privacy
Policy and applicable laws and regulations. In such cases of onward transfer, we
maintain liability for your Personal Data under the EU-U.S. and Swiss-U.S.
Privacy Shield Frameworks.

You have the choice to limit the use and disclosure of your Personal data. If
you choose to limit the data to be used, simply do not disclose that information
to VerticalResponse or use the Sites. In certain cases, limiting the use and
disclosure of your Personal Data may impact functionality or prevent the use of

Personal Data with third party service providers and/or subprocessors,

 2. ascertain that the subprocessor is obligated to provide at least the same
    level of privacy protection as is required by these Principles;

    effectively processes the Personal Data transferred in a manner consistent
    with the organization’s obligations under these Principles;

    determination that it can no longer meet its obligation to provide the same
    level of protection as is required by these Principles;
 5. upon notice, including under (iv), take reasonable and appropriate steps to
    stop and remediate unauthorized processing; and
 6. provide a summary or a representative copy of the relevant privacy
    provisions of its contract with that subprocessor to the Department of
    Commerce upon request.

inconsistent with the Privacy Shield Principles, unless VerticalResponse proves
that it is not responsible for the event giving rise to the damage.

unethical.
