other
countries.
If
you
are
a
resident
in
the
European
Economic
Area
(EEA),
United
Kingdom
(UK),
or
Switzerland,
then
these
countries
may
not

have
data
protection
laws
or
other
similar
laws
as
comprehensive
as
those
in
your
country.
However,
we
will
take
all
necessary
measures
to
protect
your
personal
information
in
accordance
with
this
privacy
notice
and
applicable
law.
8.
HOW
LONG
DO
WE
KEEP
YOUR
INFORMATION?
In
Short: We
keep
your
information
for
as
long
as
necessary
to
fulfill
the
purposes
outlined
in
this
privacy
notice
unless
otherwise
required
by
law.
We
will
only
keep
your
personal
information
for
as
long
as
it
is
necessary
for
the
purposes
set
out
in

period
is
required
or
permitted
by
law
(such
as
tax,
accounting,
or
other
legal
requirements).

purpose
in
this
notice

your
personal
information,
we
will
either
delete
or
anonymize
such
information,
or,
if
this
is
not
possible
(for
example,
because
your
personal
information
has
been
stored
in

HOW
DO
WE
KEEP

your
information,
no
electronic
transmission
over
the
Internet
or

technology
can
be
guaranteed

other
unauthorized
third
parties
will
not
be
able
to
defeat
our

access,
steal,
or
modify
your
information.
Although
we
will
do
our
best
to
protect
your
personal
information,
transmission
of

to

Services
is
at
your

only
access
the
Services
within

CONTROLS
FOR
DO-NOT-TRACK
FEATURES
Most
web
browsers
and
some
mobile
operating
systems
and
mobile
applications
include
a
Do-Not-Track
("DNT")
feature
or
setting
you
can
activate
to
signal
your
privacy
preference
not
to
have
data
about
your

activities
monitored
and
collected.
At
this
stage
no
uniform
technology
standard

not
currently
respond

DNT
browser
signals
or
any
other
mechanism
that

communicates
your
choice
not

If
a
standard
for
online

is
adopted
that
we
must
follow
in
the
future,
we
will
inform
you
about
that
practice
in
a
revised
version
of

Verification
process
Upon
receiving
your
request,
we
will
need
to
verify
your
identity
to
determine
you
are
the
same
person
about
whom
we
have
the
information
in
our
system.
These
verification
efforts
require
us
to
ask
you
to
provide
information
so
that
we
can
match
it
with
information
you
have
previously
provided
us.
For
instance,
depending
on
the
type
of
request
you
submit,
we
may
ask
you
to
provide
certain
information
so
that
we
can
match
the
information
you
provide
with
the
information
we
already
have
on
file,
or
we
may
contact
you
through
a
communication
method
(e.g.,
phone
or
email)
that
you
have
previously
provided
to
us.
We
may
also
use
other
verification
methods
as
the
circumstances
dictate.
We
will
only
use
personal
information
provided
in
your
request
to
verify
your
identity
or
authority
to
make
the
request.
To
the
extent
possible,
we
will
avoid
requesting
additional
information
from
you
for
the
purposes
of
verification.
However,
if
we
cannot
verify
your
identity
from
the
information
already
maintained
by
us,
we
may
request
that
you
provide
additional
information
for
the
purposes
of
verifying
your
identity
and
for
security
or
fraud-prevention
purposes.
We
will
delete
such
additionally
provided
information
as
soon
as
we
finish
verifying
you.

- You may request correction of your personal data if it is incorrect or no longer relevant, or ask to restrict the processing of the information.
