2.1 How we use Non-Personally Identifiable Information (Non-PII)

2.2 Other Uses of Personal Information
We may transfer personal information to service providers such as outside contractors, auditors, consultants or others hired by the Abovo42 to assist in providing financial or operational activities on the Abovo42’s behalf, including technical and processing services and analysis of website performance.
2.3 Legal Requirements
We may transfer PII to other third parties if we receive your permission or we are required to do so by law, or we have a good faith belief that such disclosure is necessary to comply with a current judicial proceeding, a court order, a legal process served on the Abovo42 or to resolve any potential fraud or perceived irregularity in any audits of the accuracy of any documentation or information submitted to the Abovo42 by you or on your behalf, as deemed appropriate by the Abovo42.
2.4 Transfers of Business Assets
In the event the Abovo42 goes through a transaction, such as a merger, being acquired by another entity, bankruptcy, or selling all or a portion of its assets, your PII may be part of the business assets transferred. We can provide no assurance that you will be notified in advance of the transfer, if any, of your PII in connection with any such transition or transfer.
2.5 Protection of Abovo42 and Others
We reserve the right to access, read, preserve, and disclose any information that we reasonably believe is necessary to comply with law or court order; enforce or apply our conditions of use and other agreements; or protect the rights, property, or safety of our Abovo42, employees, users, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and data breach risk reduction.

2.8 Links to Other Websites
The Abovo42 website and email content submitted by users may include links (the "Linked Sites") to other websites. In providing the Service, content submitted by you and other users may contain Linked Sites, the Abovo42 is by no means endorsing the products or services on these Linked Sites, and is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of the Linked Sites, and hereby expressly disclaims all responsibility and liability associate with use of the Linked Sites. We recommend that you review the privacy statements posted on those sites to understand their procedures for using and disclosing personal information.
III. HOW WE PROTECT AND RETAIN YOUR INFORMATION
3.0 Abovo42 takes commercially reasonable precautions to protect your email content and any non-personally identifiable information (Non-PII) that we collect from website visitors from loss, misuse and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration or destruction. We utilize Secure Socket Layer (SSL) 128-bit encryption, firewalls and intrusion detection systems to keep your email content and any Non-PII we collect safe.
3.1 If your email content on our systems contains PII, it will be publicly visible to anyone who visits the Website. If we collect and store Non-PII from website visitors, we restrict access to our systems to employees, contractors, and agents who need to know that information in order to operate, develop, or improve our Website and services. These individuals are bound by confidentiality obligations and may be subject to discipline, including termination, if they fail to meet these obligations.
3.2 Because the internet and mobile web are inherently insecure and no information system is 100% secure and even the most secure system can be compromised, we cannot guarantee security. As such, the Abovo42 cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to the Abovo42, including without limitation your email content, any PII, or Non-PII.
3.3 Unless you delete your email content from the Website (using the delete link in the confirmation email from Abovo42) or we delete your email for violations of the Terms of Service, your email will remain visible on the Website.
IV. HOW TO CONTROL AND CORRECT YOUR INFORMATION

You may elect not to provide email content or Non-PII to us or our Service Providers not sending us emails or using the delete link in the confirmation email from Abovo42 to remove your post.
4.1 Correcting your Personal Information
To remove email content that you submitted to Abovo42, use the link on the confirmation email from Abovo42 to delete that post. To gain access to other information about you collected online you may contact us at info@Abovo42.com. In some cases, where we are required to retain information by law or regulation, or for other necessary business purposes, we may not be able to delete certain personal information about you. Where permitted by law, your ability to access and correct personal information will be limited where access and correction would: inhibit Abovo42’s ability to comply with a legal or ethical obligation, inhibit Abovo42’s ability to investigate, make or defend legal claims, result in disclosure of personal information about a third party, result in breach of a contract or disclosure of trade secrets or other proprietary business information belonging to Abovo42 or a third party.
