When We Disclose Your Personal Information
Except with your consent, we will not sell, license, trade, barter or rent your personal information to or with others. Netsecure may share personal information with third parties engaged to assist us in providing products or services to you or to carry out one or more of the purposes described above. These product or service providers are prohibited from using your personal information for any purpose other than to provide this assistance and are required to protect personal information disclosed by Netsecure.
Netsecure reserves the right to disclose personal information to a third party if a law, regulation, search warrant, subpoena or court order legally requires or authorizes us to do so.

Knowledge and Consent
Netsecure collects personal information about you only when you voluntarily provide it to us. Typically, we will seek consent for the use or disclosure of your personal information at the time of collection. In certain circumstances, consent may be sought after the information has been collected but before use (for example, when we want to use information for a purpose not previously identified). The form of consent that we seek, including whether it is express or implied, will largely depend on the sensitivity of the personal information and the reasonable expectations of the individual in the circumstances.
You may withdraw consent at any time, subject to legal or contractual restrictions and reasonable notice. If you wish to withdraw your consent at any time, please contact our Privacy Officer at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. . We will inform you of the implications of withdrawing consent. We will not, as a condition of the supply of a product or service, require you to consent to the collection, use or disclosure of information beyond that required to fulfill the explicitly specified and legitimate purposes for which the information is being provided.
Use or Disclosure for Marketing Purposes
If you have not opted-out of receiving marketing materials, we may also use (but will not disclose) your personal information to promote and market additional products, services and special offers from us, our affiliates and our business associates, including by means of direct marketing. We may also disclose your name and mailing address to these affiliates and third party business associates so that they can send you promotional materials directly. You can choose not to allow us to use or disclose your personal information for direct marketing purposes by indicating your preference on the sales contract or by contacting us as outlined below (see "Contacting Us").
