We may also collect information about your activities or postings on SB Website when you choose to send us personal correspondence such as emails or letters or when other SB Website users or third parties send us correspondence, which may include their comments about you.

Providing your Personal Information to us is voluntary. However, if you do not provide your Personal Information to us, you will not be able to access some or all of our services.
How do We Use Your Information?
When you provide Personal Information to us, we will use it to contact you about our services, to process payment for our services, and to tailor our services to meet your preferences.
We use your Personal Information for many specific purposes, including:
We may also use your Personal Information to resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems, enforce any agreements, policies and rules governing the use of SB Website, and observe the SB Website for quality control and customer service purposes.
When and to Whom Will We Disclose Your Information?
Due to the nature of many of the services provided by the SB Website, certain of your Personal Information will be disclosed to other Members. As an example, if you complete a profile info and the bio section and choose to disclose your religious affiliation or ethnic origin, this information will be available to other Members using the services on the applicable SB Website. By providing this type of profile information to us, you have consented to the use and disclosure of your Personal Information in this manner.
We also disclose Personal Information to our service providers (for example, credit card processing companies, billing services) as reasonably necessary or appropriate to provide services on the SB Website. Our service providers are legally required by us to protect your Personal Information. Because some of the SB Website operates or use service providers located in different countries, your Personal Information may be transferred to a country in which you do not reside, and while in that foreign country, may be accessible to its law enforcement authorities.
We may be required to disclose your Personal Information in order to comply with a court order, subpoena, search warrant, or a lawful request by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements. In addition, we expressly reserve the right to disclose your Personal Information when we have a good faith belief that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, to enforce our agreements, policies, and rules governing your use of the SB Website, and/or to report information concerning a threat of serious injury or death.
We DO NOT sell or rent any of your Personal Information to third parties for marketing purposes without your express permission or consent. We may, however, disclose to third-party advertisers certain aggregated or hashed (i.e., encrypted) information in a manner that no longer reflects or references an individually identifiable user, for other marketing and promotional purposes.
When you provide your Personal Information and Sensitive Personal Information to us, you consent to our use and disclosure of that information as described in this Policy. If you do not want us to use or disclose your Personal Information as described in this Policy, do not provide it to us. We note that this may result in you being unable to access some or all of our services.
