■ If we believe it is necessary to protect our users against illegal activities, suspected fraud or to prevent against such activities, in situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of a person, or in cases involving violations of our Terms of Use.

Aggregate Data
Aggregate Data is the set of information that results when we combine collected data, including browsing history. We may store, analyze and enhance aggregate data. Aggregate data helps us understand how the Services are used or may be improved in the future. We will not use aggregate data for any external purpose, or share them with third parties, without prior anonymizing such data so that third parties may not identify you from what they see.

You may access and modify Personal Information about yourself At any time, you can view, correct, update, or delete your Profil'. Any deleted information becomes immediately unavailable for Public Profiles. However, deleted information may remain stored on our servers for some period of time after deletion, e.g. for accounting purposes or technical reasons (back-up storage). If you wish to withdraw information you entered when you signed up for newsletters, or sent in a survey form, please contact us under export@Hironic.com. We may choose to anonymize such information instead of deleting it, except if there is reasonable basis to believe that the information, though anonymized, can still be used to identify you as an individual.
