If we collect data and you register with us, we may create a profile that includes your name, mailing address, email address, and other information that you provide that is pertinent to your specific situation. We may combine such information with data gathered from other sources. For instance, if incorrect postal codes are received, we may use third party software to correct them. 

In some instances we may contract with outside parties to collect and maintain our information collection servers and to perform technology and related services. We seek to provide any such third parties with only the information they need to perform their specific function and we would require them to protect your personal data in accordance with this Privacy Policy and Consent.
