In such instances, Personal Data may be collected directly by and/or shared with Carer®, the service provider and/or business partner, including for marketing purposes. Personal Data associated with a Survey or Promotion may be shared with partners that sponsored or were involved with the Survey or Promotion. To the extent a Survey or Promotion collects information from you about your periods, issues with incontinence or product usage, such information will be used to help us better understand your needs and provide you with additional information that you can incorporate into your evaluation of Carer® products and services and for purposes reasonably related to the Survey or Promotion and as otherwise described herein or the privacy notice governing such Survey or Promotion and only to the extent permitted by applicable law.

Please note that certain portions of the Sites may require this data for us to fully provide our Services, so your choice to not provide such information may limit the scope of available offerings. We respect our customers’ rights and heightened privacy interests pertaining to sensitive personal information.
