Some Site content may be co-branded and offered in conjunction with another company. If you register to receive such content, PAI, its affiliates and the other company may receive information collected as part of the co-branded content.
In some cases, the Site uses contractors to collect, use, analyze and otherwise process information on its behalf. It is the Site’s practice to require such suppliers to handle information in a manner consistent with the Site’s policies. The Site may also allow carefully selected Site partners to participate in limited marketing campaigns solely to promote the Site’s services to you.
If you request something from the Site (for example, some content, a callback, or quote), we will use the information you provide to fulfill your request. As part of a transaction, we may also contact you as part of our customer satisfaction surveys or for market research purposes.
We occasionally hire other companies to provide limited services on our behalf, such as handling the processing and delivery of mailings, providing customer support, hosting
websites or processing transactions. Those companies will be permitted to obtain only the Personal Information they need to deliver the service. They are required to maintain the confidentiality of the information and are prohibited from using it for any other purpose.
We may access and/or disclose your Personal Information if we believe such action is necessary to: (a) comply with the law or legal process served on the Site; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of the Site (including the enforcement of our agreements); or (c) act in urgent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of Site services or members of the public.

This option does not apply to communications primarily for the purpose of administering requests for information or a quote or other administrative and transactional notices.
