De-identified Information. We may receive or process personal information to create de-identified data that can no longer reasonably be used to infer information about, or otherwise be linked to, a particular individual or household. Where we maintain de-identified data, we maintain and use the data in de-identified form and not attempt to reidentify the data except as required or permitted by law.
Changes
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time, so you should check it periodically. If we make changes that are material we will provide you with appropriate notice before such changes take effect.
