Information We Collect From Other Sources

We may also get information about you from others where permitted by applicable law. In most circumstances, where the information we collect about you is held by a third party, we will obtain your permission before we seek out this information from such sources (such permission may be given directly by you or implied). From time to time, we may utilize the services of third parties and may also receive data collected by those third parties in the course of the performance of their services for us or otherwise. Where this is the case, we will take reasonable steps to ensure such third parties have represented to us that they have the right to disclose your information to us. When permitted by applicable law or regulatory requirements, we may collect information about you from other sources without your knowledge or consent.

We may also collect market-related information, which may include information concerning market trends and activities impacting our business or your business.

We may also use a third-party marketing software from a company called Hubspot to send promotional emails. As mentioned above, we use cookies as part of tracking so we have information on email open rates and click-through rates, as well as to track activity on our website. For example, we use Hubspot cookies to see if an individual who opens an email then visits other parts of our website. This helps us update, expand, and analyze our records, identify new customers, and create more tailored advertising to provide services that may be of interest to you.
