For example, if you complete a registration form to access the products and services available on our Site, we may collect the personally identifiable information you provide during the registration process. Once you have registered with the Site, we may also collect primarily aggregated information about your transactions with the Site’s features and services, including but not limited to your specific requests for information from the Site’s mapping and other tools and your query results (“Transactional Data”). We do not share Transactional Data with any third parties for marketing purposes and for other purposes, we only share such Transactional Data for the limited reasons further described below.

We may disclose personally identifiable information to third party contractors or service providers that help us provide products or services to you. We may share some or all of your personal information with our subsidiaries and affiliates, joint venturers, or other companies under common control (collectively, “affiliates”), in which case we will require those affiliates to honor this Privacy Statement. We may also share some or all of your personally identifiable information with other organizations with whom we have entered into a business relationship for their internal business reasons, such as ensuring that the Site's on-line tools and resources are only used for business reasons. We never share Transactional Data, however, on a stand alone basis and we only do so in connection with other account information if in response to a specific request from the primary account holder or representative for the entity paying the applicable fees for the account. Out of respect for your privacy, if you would like to opt out of receiving promotional communications from us and/or our marketing partners, contact us any time at info@imapdata.com.

We may disclose personally identifiable information and/or Transactional Data if required to do so by law or to comply with valid legal process (such as a search warrant, subpoena or court order), to protect the company’s rights or property (including without limitation in the event of a transfer of control of the company or substantially all of its assets), or during emergencies when safety is at risk.
