Information Sharing and Disclosure.

HomeSail does not rent, sell, or share personal information about you with other people or non-affiliated companies except to provide products or services you've requested, when we have your permission, or under the following circumstances:

We provide the information to trusted partners who work on behalf of or with HomeSail under confidentiality agreements. These companies may use your personal information to help HomeSail communicate with you about offers from HomeSail and our marketing partners. However, these companies do not have any independent right to share this information.

We respond to subpoenas, court orders, or legal process, or to establish or exercise our legal rights or defend against legal claims.

We believe it is necessary to share information in order to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud or counterfeiting, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of the HomeSail website's Terms of Use, or as otherwise required by law.

We transfer information about you if HomeSail is acquired by or merged with another company. In this event, HomeSail will notify you before information about you is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.

HomeSail may display targeted advertisements based on personal information. Advertisers (including ad serving companies) may assume that people who interact with, view, or click targeted ads meet the targeting criteria.

HomeSail does not provide any personal information to the advertiser when you interact with or view a targeted ad. However, by interacting with or viewing an ad you are consenting to the possibility that the advertiser will make the assumption that you meet the targeting criteria used to display the ad.

HomeSail website advertisers may include financial service providers (such as banks, insurance agents, stock brokers and mortgage lenders) and non-financial companies (such as stores, airlines, software companies, and others).

HomeSail may work with vendors, partners, advertisers, and other service providers in different industries and categories of business.
