8. Third parties
Third parties will never receive your data from us unless it is essential to deliver our services. Cloud hosting is essential for almost everything done online, for instance, so our cloud provider is an example of a third party that, out of necessity, will store some of your information. We have agreements in place with these third parties to ensure this information remains secure and limited in use.
We may also share your Personal Information to comply with applicable laws and regulations, to respond to a subpoena, search warrant, or other lawful requests for information we receive, to provide information for auditing purposes by official regulators, or to otherwise protect our rights.
Outside of Dapio, you may have allowed some parties access to some of your information. We may work with these third parties to help us contact you such as when you’ve moved house or updated your phone number and we cannot reach you with important service information.
When we send you an email or a push notification, these may be delivered by customer relationship management (CRM) software. These platforms may provide us with message opens, clicks, and formatting for instance.
We may also employ third parties to carry out statistical analyses and conduct surveys on our behalf, to support our advertising and content production efforts or for help with testing and launching new services or offers.
We make sure to identify ourselves and any third parties so you know who has access to your information.
Some third parties, including Google Analytics, may share information about your interaction on our sites.
