3.  Disclosure of personal information

Beebe Law may contract or otherwise associate with third-party vendors in order to comply with your requests, inquiries, orders, payments of bills or invoices, etc.  That said, we do not rent or share your personal information to third-parties for the purposes of marketing efforts without your express written consent.  For example, if you are interested in working with a third-party affiliate of ours, you would have to express such desire to be connected before we would connect you with such third-party vendor.

We may share personal information with the following categories of third parties:

• Our professional advisers, such as our lawyers, contracted or associated lawyers, and accountants and other financial providers.
• Professional indemnity insurers.
• Regulators, tax authorities and/or corporate registries.
• Government and/or regulatory authorities.
• Third party service providers that provide services to us or to whom we may choose to outsource certain services, such as data hosting or software, case management systems, payment systems, email marketing, website hosting, website accessibility tools, or other types of technology services that we engage to help us run our business.
• Content providers that we partner with to make training or other content or resources.  We don't share your information with them for their own unfettered independent use, however, if your register for an account with one of these third-party service providers, they will likely use the information that you provide to them which will be subject to their own separate set of privacy policy/notice and terms which you should review before providing them with any information.

Outside of the information above, we may also disclosure personal information to third-parties under the following unique circumstances:

• Legally required:  If we are required to disclosure personal information by law, e.g., complying with a subpoena, court order, law enforcement, etc.

• Business transfers: As part of any merger, acquisition, sale and transfer of our assets, restructuring all or part of our business, bankruptcy, or similar event, including but not limited to related due diligence conducted prior to such even as may be permitted by law.
  

We do NOT sell (i.e, we don't provide your information in exchange for money) the information that we collect about you. Period.  If at any point this were to change, under some odd circumstance that we cannot fathom currently, you would be provided notice and the ability to opt-out of such sale of information.​

4.  Direct marketing

As noted herein, we may send periodic promotional emails to you if you have engaged with Beebe Law before or have otherwise opt-in for such communications.  We hate spam mail as much as the next person and we understand that sometimes too many communications can become overwhelming.  You may opt-out of such communications at any time by following the opt-out instructions contained in the email.  Please note that if you opt out of receiving emails about recommendations or other information that we think may interest you, you may still receive emails from us about your account or any services you have requested or received from us.
