We also may use and share non-personally identifiable information with other third parties. Additionally, we may take personally identifiable information and de-identify it and share it in a de-identified or aggregated form with advertisers, business partners, and/or other third parties in order to analyze the Sites usage, demographics, or interests, improve the Sites or Willoughby’s products or services, perform services on the Sites, improve the user experience, or for similar purposes.

If you provide information to Willoughby through the Sites or offline, you represent that you are 18 years of age or older.

  1. Protection of Personal Information 

Willoughby uses reasonable administrative, physical and electronic security measures to protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of personally identifiable information.

Any such transmission is at your own risk. 

  1. Updating Your Information
