          <ol>
            <li>With your consent - We will share PII with companies, outside organizations or individuals if we have

            </li>
            <li>For legal reasons - We will share PII with companies, outside organizations or individuals if we have
              a good-faith belief that access, use, preservation or disclosure of the information is reasonably
              necessary to meet any applicable law, regulation, legal process or enforceable governmental request,
              detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues or protect against harm to the
              rights, property or safety of our users or the public as required or permitted by law.
            </li>
            <li>In case of a sale or asset transfer - If we become involved in a merger, acquisition or other
              transaction involving the sale of some or all of our assets, user information, including PII collected
              from you through your use of our Services, could be included in the transferred assets. Should such an
              event occur, we will use reasonable means to notify you, either through email and/or a prominent notice
              on the Services.
            </li>
            <li>In aggregated form for business purposes - We may share aggregated information and DII with our
              partners such as businesses we have a relationship with, advertisers or connected sites. For example, we

          <p>We use DII to operate our Services and manage user sessions, including analyzing usage of our Services,
            preventing malicious behavior and fraud, improving the content, to link your identity across devices and
            browsers in order to provide you with a more seamless experience online, and helping third parties provide
            relevant advertising and related metrics. We share DII with third parties primarily for advertising and
            analytics purposes, for external processing, and for security purposes.</p>
