Your personally identifiable information is not shared with any third party except as stated herein. Ancora Heart employees, agents and contractors must have a legitimate business reason to obtain access to the personally identifiable information you may provide to us. We may share your personally identifiable information with companies that provide services to us, including outside contractors or agents who help us manage our information activities, but they may only use your personally identifiable information to provide us with a specific service and not for any other purpose.
We may also share your personal information if we have a good faith belief that access, use, preservation or disclosure of such information is reasonably necessary to (a) satisfy any applicable law, regulation, legal process or enforceable governmental request, (b) enforce our Terms of Use, including investigation of potential violations thereof, (c) detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues, or (d) protect against harm to the rights, property or safety of Ancora Heart, its users or the public as required or permitted by law.
In the event that Ancora Heart is acquired by or merged with a third-party entity, we reserve the right, in any of these circumstances, to transfer or assign the information that we have collected from our users as part of such merger, acquisition, sale, or other change of control.
Ancora Heart discloses automatically collected and other aggregate non-personally-identifiable information with interested third parties to assist such parties in understanding the usage, viewing, and demographic patterns for certain programs, content, services, advertisements, promotions, and/or functionality available on or through the Site.

We take certain precautions to ensure your information is kept private. We use reasonable measures to protect user information that is stored within our database, and we restrict access to member information to those employees who need access to perform their job functions, such as our customer service personnel and technical staff. Please note that we cannot guarantee the absolute security of personally identifiable information. Unauthorized entry or use, hardware or software failure, and other factors may compromise the security of personally identifiable information at any time.
