After such transfer, any information that you submit to the successor, or that is collected by the successor, may be subject to a new privacy policy adopted by the successor.

We share information relating to users of the Service with affiliated or unaffiliated third parties on an anonymous, aggregate basis. While this information will not identify each individual personally, in some instances these third parties may combine this aggregate information with other information they have, or receive from third parties, in a manner that may allow them to identify you personally.
