We will share your Personal Information as follows:

The Member Communities may contact you directly, including by email, telephone, regular mail, or in-person visits. We may share Personal Information with the person who referred you as a Resident or to another person acting on your behalf.

2) Cross Device Matching. To determine if users have interacted with content across multiple devices and to match such devices, we work with partners who analyze device activity data and/or rely on your information (including demographic, geographic and interest-based data). To supplement this analysis, we also provide de-identified data to these partners. Based on this data, we may then display targeted advertisements across devices that we believe are associated or use this data to further analyze usage of Services across devices.

3) Business Transfers. We may transfer your Personal Information to another company in connection with a proposed merger, sale, acquisition or other change of ownership or control by or of Purple Door (whether in whole or in part). Should one of these events occur, we will make reasonable efforts to notify you before your information becomes subject to different privacy and security policies and practices.

4) Public Information and Submissions. You agree that any information that you may reveal in a review posting, online discussion or forum is intended for the public and is not in any way private. Carefully consider whether to disclose any Personal Information in any public posting or forum. Your submissions may be seen and/or collected by third parties and may be used by others in ways we are unable to control or predict.

5) Protection of Purple Door and Others. We also may need to disclose your Personal Information or any other information we collect about you if we determine in good faith that such disclosure is needed to: (i) comply with or fulfill our obligations under applicable law, regulation, court order or other legal process; (ii) protect the rights, property or safety of you, Purple Door or another party; (iii) enforce the Terms of Use, this Privacy Policy, or other agreements with you; or (iv) respond to claims that any posting or other content violates third-party rights.

6) As Aggregated, Anonymized Information. We may share aggregated, anonymous, or de-identified information to our advertisers, business partners, and other third parties that cannot reasonably be used by those third parties to identify you.

We strive to provide you with choices regarding the Personal Information you provide to us. You can set your browser to refuse all or some browser cookies, or to alert you when cookies are being sent.
