If you provide us personal information about others, or if others give us your information, we will only use that information for the specific reason for which it was provided to us. Examples of the types of personal information that may be obtained from public sources or purchased from third parties and combined with information we already have about you may include: Address information about you from third party sources, such as the U.S. Postal Service, to verify your address so we can properly ship your order to you and to prevent fraud; and/or marketing data that is combined with information we already have about you, to create more tailored advertising and products. Sharing with Service Providers
We use service providers to help us provide and support the Service or certain features of the Service. These include cloud hosting and service providers.
