Affiliated Companies. We may also share your Personal Information with our subsidiaries, affiliates and other related companies for purposes consistent with this Privacy Policy and providing you with the Service.

Agents, Consultants and Service Providers. MSPwerks, like many businesses, sometimes hires other companies to perform certain business-related functions. Examples of such functions include mailing information, maintaining databases and processing payments. When we employ another company to perform a function of this nature, we only provide them with the information that they need to perform their specific function.

Legal Requirements. MSPwerks may disclose your Personal Information if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to (i) comply with a legal obligation; (ii) enforce, protect or defend the rights or property of MSPwerks; (iii) act in urgent circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of this Site or the public; or (iv) protect against legal liability.  MSPwerks may also disclose your Personal Information in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.
