How We Share Your Personal Information

We may disclose your personal information as follows or as otherwise described in this Policy: 

 

  • To related entities, including our affiliates, subsidiaries, and other companies under common control and ownership.
  • To service providers that provide services on our behalf or help us operate our business, including web hosting, information technology, customer support, print and mail fulfillment, email delivery, marketing, website analytics and payment processors). These service providers and contractors may also include our support vendors, as well as experts, consultants, and other professionals that assist in connection with us providing Services. For example, the Website is hosted by XpressDox Publisher (https://publisher.xpressdox.com/) and utilizes XpressDox document automation software (https://xpressdox.com) in connection with the provision of Services accessed on the Website. You will therefore be subject to the privacy policy (https://xpressdox.com/policies/privacy/) and end-user license agreement (https://xpressdox.com/policies/eula/) of XpressDox when accessing the Website.

  • To authorities and others, when we believe disclosure is in accordance with, or required by, any applicable law or legal process, including lawful requests by public authorities to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.
  • Disclosures to enforce our agreements or policies, if we believe your actions are inconsistent with our agreements or policies, or to protect the rights, property, and safety of us or any third party.
  • To business transferees, such as in connection with, or during negotiations of any merger, financing, divestiture, restructuring, reorganization, dissolution, or other sale of Agile’ assets or acquisition of all or a portion of our business to another company (including in connection with a bankruptcy or similar proceedings).
  • With your consent or at your direction, including if we notify you that your personal information will be disclosed in a particular manner, and you provide such personal information.

We may also share aggregated or de-identified information, including user feedback, which cannot reasonably be used to identify you for external marketing purposes to highlight user experiences and promote our services.

Your Privacy Rights and Choices

You have the following choices with respect to your personal information: 

 

  • Opt-out of marketing communications. You may opt-out of marketing-related emails, including newsletters, by following the opt-out or unsubscribe instructions at the bottom of the email, or by contacting us. You may continue to receive service-related and other non-marketing emails.
  • Cookies. Most browser settings let you delete and reject cookies placed by websites. Many browsers accept cookies by default until you change your settings. If you do not accept cookies, you may not be able to use all functionality of the Service and it may not work properly. For more information about cookies, including how to see what cookies have been set on your browser and how to manage and delete them, visit www.allaboutcookies.org.

Data Retention

  To determine the length of time that Agile retains personal information, we consider numerous factors, including legal, ethical, and regulatory obligations or whether retention of personal information is needed to resolve disputes, make and defend legal claims, conduct audits, pursue legitimate business purposes, and/or enforce agreements.

SECURITY PROCEDURES

We take reasonable measures to protect your personal information in an effort to prevent loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. However, like other companies, Agile cannot guarantee 100% the security or confidentiality of the information you provide to us. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure, please notify us by sending an email with the subject line “Security Concern” and a description of the concern to the email address below or by calling our office.
