Protecting Your Information

Filament 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 the Filament under confidentiality agreements.

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, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of the Filament’s terms of use, or as otherwise required by law.

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