In some cases these service providers are not strictly necessary, but help to improve our services by conducting research into how we could better service our users. In such cases we have a legitimate interest in working with these third party Service Providers.

We may also share Personal Information with our auditors, attorneys or other advisors in connection with corporate functions.
Legal Authorities.
