A service provider is someone who is helping us with a part of the Accel OB Website. The service provider will have to sign a contract promising to use the data only for the job they are doing for us. Also, they will promise to keep the data safe.
2. For legal reasons. We may give out data if we are required to by law. Otherwise, we will not give out data in any civil, criminal, administrative, legislative, or other proceedings.

Whenever possible, we will tell you if we have to give out data.
VI. Retention of your Data

Parents may send their preferences in an email to admin@accelobpartner.com. In addition, we will retain a child’s personal information for only as long as is reasonably necessary for us to fulfill the purpose for which the information was collected. After that, we will delete the child’s personal information using commercially reasonable measures to ensure it’s been securely destroyed.
