Data security, transfer of information abroad, and disclosure to third parties
We may disclose your personal information to any of our subsidiaries for the above purposes.
We may also disclose your personal information if we are under a duty to disclose or share your personal data in order to comply with any legal or regulatory obligation, or in order to enforce or apply our Terms of Use and other agreements; or to protect the rights, property, or safety of FTLF, our clients, or others.

We may transfer your personal information to any office of the firm or any of our subsidiaries for the above purposes. By submitting your personal data, you agree to this transfer, storing, or processing. We will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that your data is treated securely and in accordance with this privacy policy.
Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to our Website; any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorized access.
This privacy policy does not apply to third party websites (if any) that may be accessed through this Website. We may provide links to other websites that contain information that we believe may be useful to you or that you will find valuable. However, we have not investigated the security of those linked websites and you should not assume those Websites have a privacy policy equivalent to ours. If you have any questions regarding the privacy or security of those websites, you should contact the appropriate people at those websites.
