5. CONSENT
We want you to know that you have choices and can refuse or withdraw your consent to the collection, use or disclosure of personal information.
You have the choice simply not to submit any personal information to us, however this may limit our ability to serve you as it may prevent you from contributing and subscribing to this website. You may also choose only to submit information constituting required fields when making purchases. In the event that you have already consented to the collection, use and/or disclosure of your personal information, you may subsequently “opt-out” at any time, subject to legal or contractual restrictions and reasonable notice, by contacting us using the information contained in the “Contact Information” section below or selecting “Cancel My Account” on your profile page.

We will keep your personal information only as long as is reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Policy, or such longer period as may be required by applicable law.
6. THIRD PARTY SERVICES
In general, the third-party providers used by us will only collect, use and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide to us. However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies in respect to the information we are required to provide to them for your purchase-related transactions. For these providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies so you can understand the manner in which your personal information will be handled by these providers. For example, MedalBook does not store credit card information but instead uses a third party provider to handle payment for subscriptions.
In particular, remember that certain providers may be located in or have facilities that are located a different jurisdiction than either you or us. So if you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third-party service provider, then your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located. As an example, if you are located in Canada and your transaction is processed by a payment gateway located in the United States, then your personal information used in completing that transaction may be subject to disclosure under United States legislation, including the Patriot Act.
