The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and UK GDPR require us to explain the valid legal bases we rely on to process your personal information. As such, we may rely on the following legal bases to process your personal information for the following purposes:

Send users information about special offers and discounts on our products and services;
Analyze how our services are used so we can improve them to engage and retain users;
Diagnose problems and/or prevent fraudulent activities; or

If disclosure is required to comply with a subpoena, warrant, court order, or rules of the court relating to the production of records
