We may disclose your personal information as otherwise permitted or required by law (such as in response to a subpoena, warrant or court order or to exercise our rights to defend against a legal claim, prevent or take action regarding illegal activity or suspected fraud, etc.) Sharing excludes text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.
