How is your personal information shared?

GGP does not sell, share or rent this information to third parties in ways other than those disclosed in this Privacy Policy. We may disclose the personal information we collect to third-party service providers (such as other companies, agents, or contractors) to perform services to support our operations. We do not authorize these service providers to use or disclose the information except as necessary to perform services on our behalf or comply with legal requirements. In all such instances, we limit the personal information provided to these service providers to that which is reasonably necessary for them to perform their functions.

We may also disclose the personal information we collect under the following circumstances:

  • In connection with a commercial transfer. In the event that GGP undergoes a business transition, such as a merger, acquisition by another company, change of control, or sale of all or a portion of its assets, we may transfer all of your information, including personal information, to the successor organization in such transition.

How is your personal information stored and transferred?

Your personal information may be transferred to, and maintained on, computers located outside of your state, province, country, or other governmental jurisdiction where the privacy laws may not be as protective as those in your jurisdiction. If you’re located outside the United States and choose to provide your personal information to us, we may transfer your personal information to the United States and process it there.

How do we protect personal information?
