KMARU may share aggregate information and individual information with other parties. KMARU shall not share personally identifiable information with other parties, except as described in the policy below.

“Aggregate information” is information that describes the habits, usage patterns, and demographics of users as a group but does not describe or reveal the identity of any particular user.

“Individual information” is information about a user that is presented in a form distinguishable from information relating to other users but not in a form that personally identifies any user or enables the recipient to communicate directly with any user unless agreed to by the user in advance of such communication. This information may be used to improve KMARU’s products and online sites, for internal marketing studies, or simply to collect demographic information about KMARU’s users.

“Personally identifiable information” consists of a user’s name, email address, user name, physical address, pictures, user’s software & hardware attributes or other data about the user that enables the recipient to personally identify the user. While KMARU collects personally identifiable information on a voluntary basis, for certain products and online sites, KMARU’s collection of personally identifiable information may be a requirement for access to the product or site. KMARU may allow third parties performing services under contract with KMARU to access stored information but such access shall only be to the extent necessary to provide those services. In those instances, the third party will be bound by the terms of this privacy policy.

Personally identifiable information protected under this privacy policy and collected from users may be done in conjunction with associates under agreement with KMARU. If a user does not want to provide this information, the user may choose to opt out of providing this information. Additionally, if providing the information is a requirement of usage, the user may decline to use that particular Service or Product. When possible, KMARU will make a reasonable effort to direct users to the privacy policies of these associates. KMARU’s privacy policy does not extend to associates of KMARU.

KMARU may release personally identifiable information to comply with court orders or laws that require us to disclose such information
