We and others acting on our behalf may use the information that we gather to operate our business, including our Site, as described below:

To fulfill any other purpose for which you provide it;
To provide you with notices about your account, including expiration and renewal notices;

Other Contacts. We may contact you by telephone or using other contact information we may have for you, as permitted by law. For example, we may use the information we gather to notify users about service availability, temporary or permanent changes to the Site, our services, or changes to our agreements, policies or this Notice.

Usage Data. Usage Data is collected for statistical purposes to monitor and analyze the use of the Site, and to improve the Site’s functionality. By way of example only, BAYTREE may use software programs to create summary statistics, which are used for such purposes as assessing the number of visitors to the different sections of our Site, what information is of most and least interest, determining technical design specifications, and identifying system performance or problem areas.

Other Information. Your IP address is used to help identify you and to gather broad demographic information. BAYTREE may use your IP address to help protect ourselves and our partners from fraud. For system administration purposes, BAYTREE also logs IP server addresses and catalogues traffic patterns through the Sites. However, BAYTREE does not link this information to users' Personal Information.

Consent. We may use the information we gather for other purposes where we have individual consent.

  1. How We May Share Information

We share information to support the purposes for which we may use information as described or permitted by this Notice. For example, we may share information we gather in the following ways:

Affiliates and Business Partners: BAYTREE may share Personal Information with our affiliates and contracted business partners that are directly involved in the sale, distribution, transmission, operation, maintenance, analysis, and support of the Site on our behalf. If these contracted business partners do access any Personal Information it is only so that they may perform their duties on our behalf and BAYTREE will require those affiliates and business partners to maintain and keep confidential such Personal Information in accordance with this Notice.

Service Providers. We may share information with third party service providers who help us operate our Site or provide services on our behalf. These service providers include analytics companies and advertising networks that provide Data Technologies on our Site.

Business Transfer. As BAYTREE continues to develop our business, BAYTREE may sell or buy assets. In such transactions, customer information generally is one of the transferred business assets. Thus, if BAYTREE or a subsidiary BAYTREE controls, sells substantially all of its assets, or is acquired by another entity, customer information may be one of the transferred assets and you agree that you consent to such transfer.

Protection of Ourselves and Others. BAYTREE releases account and other Personal Information when such release is (a) at the request of law enforcement or (b) necessary to comply with the law, enforce or apply our Terms of Use or other agreements, protect the rights, property, or safety of BAYTREE and/or our users, and in connection with a legal claim or proceeding. This may include exchanging information with other companies and organizations as part of our efforts to prevent fraud and identity theft.

You may limit and control the information provided to us in a number of ways. For example, you may unsubscribe from promotional emails from us by following the unsubscribe link included in each such email. Your browser and your device may provide you the option to limit the use of cookies or other Data Technologies. You should consult documentation for your browser or device for more information. Your decision to accept or reject a BAYTREE cookie will not affect your ability to access the Site, however, the Site may not function as intended if a cookie is rejected.

  1. Data Retention

BAYTREE retains information you provide, including without limitation Personal Information, for as long as necessary to (a) permit BAYTREE to use it for the purposes described in this Notice, and (b) comply with applicable law or regulation.

  1. Security of Personal Information

BAYTREE uses physical, logical, and procedural security measures to protect the information you provide to BAYTREE. However, while BAYTREE uses commercially reasonable steps to protect the Personal Information you provide to BAYTREE from unauthorized access, use or disclosure, no Internet data transmission can be guaranteed to be secure from access by unintended recipients.
