Website Analytics
At Brooke Garwood Media, we may disclose your information to third parties under specific circumstances. Particularly, we might share your data with third-party processors as necessary to advance our legitimate business interests. These interests encompass managing our website, administering your account, entering into contracts with you, communicating with you, processing orders for goods or services, delivering our offerings, identifying trends, safeguarding the security of our company and website, and marketing additional goods and services to you. The legal grounds for our disclosure of your data include both your consent to this Privacy Policy and our own right to safeguard and promote our legitimate business interests.
Here are specific reasons why we may share your information:
Third-Party Processing: We may disclose your information to third parties who aid us in various tasks, such as payment processing, hosting services, email delivery, communications, and customer service. We may not always disclose these third-party processors unless required by law. We do not authorize them to use or disclose your personal information except in connection with providing services to our company.
By Law: Your data may be shared as required by law or to respond to legal processes, including subpoenas, or as necessary to protect the rights, property, and safety of others. This includes sharing information with other parties to prevent or address fraud and to mitigate credit risks.
Protecting Our Company: Your information may be used to safeguard our company, including investigating and remedying any violations of our rights or policies. We may also disclose your information as reasonably necessary to acquire and maintain insurance coverage, manage risks, obtain financial or legal advice, or to exercise or defend against legal claims.
Business Transfers: In the unlikely event our company undergoes a merger, acquisition, bankruptcy proceedings, dissolution, reorganization, or similar transaction or proceeding, your data may be transferred or shared as part of that proceeding. Customer information is one of the business assets acquired by a third party in such transitions. You acknowledge that such business transfers may occur and that your personal information may continue to be stored, used, or processed as otherwise set forth in this privacy policy.
Please note that at this time, we do not recognize automated browser signals regarding tracking systems, which may include “do not track” instructions.
Other Third Parties: Information may be shared with advertisers, our investors, or other third parties for conducting general business analysis. If we do so, we will make reasonable efforts to inform you if required by law.
Online Postings: When you post online, your comments may be viewed by others, and we may distribute your comments outside the website.
External Links: Our website may contain hyperlinks to other websites not controlled by us. We advise you to exercise caution when clicking on a hyperlink.

We are not bound by the Privacy Policies of any third-party website you access via a hyperlink, nor are they bound by ours. We encourage you to read the Policies of those third-party websites before interacting with them or making purchases, as they may collect different information and by different methods than we do.
