It may be possible for third parties not under the control of the EWR to intercept or access transmissions or private communications unlawfully, including in the case of your contacting us by e-mail or a “contact us” or similar feature on our Platform. Accordingly, though the EWR may take reasonable steps to protect the security and integrity of all Personal Information provided to this Platform, due to the inherent nature of the internet as an open global communications vehicle, we cannot guarantee that Personal Information, during transmission through the internet or while stored on our system or otherwise in our care, will be absolutely safe from intrusion by others, such as hackers. Any such transmission is done at your own risk. In the unlikely event that we believe that the security of your Personal Information in our possession or control may have been compromised, we may seek to notify you of that development. If a notification is appropriate, we would endeavor to do so as promptly as possible under the circumstances, and, to the extent we have your e-mail address, we may notify you by any method permitted by law.
