Other than as provided in this privacy policy, RMHCGDE does not sell, transfer or disclose personal information to third parties.

RMHCGDE reserves the right to use or disclose any information as needed to satisfy any law, regulation or legal request, to protect the integrity of the site, to fulfill your requests, or to cooperate in any law enforcement investigation or an investigation on a public safety matter.
