4. THIRD PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS
In order to provide certain Services to you, we may on occasion supplement the personally identifiable information you submit to us with information from third party sources (e.g., information from our strategic partners, service providers, or the United States Postal Service). We do this to enhance our ability to serve you, and our services to you,
5. SERVICES TERMINATION
When your Services are cancelled (either voluntarily or involuntarily), all of your personally identifiable information is placed in “deactivated” status with our third party billing partners and on our relevant Crossing Rivers Counseling databases. However, deactivation of your account does not mean your personally identifiable information has been deleted from our database entirely. We will retain and use your personally identifiable information as necessary in order to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, or enforce our agreements.
6. TRANSFER AND STORAGE OF DATA ABROAD
We do not intentionally offer, market, target, or direct our products to people living in the European Economic Area.

By visiting this Site and communicating electronically with us, you consent to such transfers.
7. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS AND LAW ENFORCEMENT
We cooperate with government and law enforcement officials and private parties to enforce and comply with the law. We will disclose any information about you to government or law enforcement officials or private parties as we, in our sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate to respond to claims and legal process (including without limitation subpoenas), to protect our property and rights or the property and rights of a third party, to protect the safety of the public or any person, or to prevent or stop activity we consider to be illegal or unethical. We will also share your information to the extent necessary to comply with ICANN’s rules, regulations and policies.
