These third parties may thereafter provide us with your Personal Information and we will maintain such Information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. Additionally, you may, in certain cases directly provide us with your Personal Information while interacting with our social media accounts on these third party platforms in which case our obligations with respect to the use and processing of that Personal Information will be in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
