How We Share Your Information

You cannot control who views your content, other than to mark it anonymous. So, if you don't want to share something publicly, don't post it. SnapSuggest is a social network, and the content you post may be shared with and viewable by others in your company. If you mark a suggestion or comment as anonymous, we do not identify you by name or contact information to anyone. However, we cannot prevent others from determining your identify from the content you posts or how you share content through third party sites.

The information we collect about you, including personally identifiable information, may be shared as follows:

  • Snap Suggest Users. Any information that you post, and do not mark anonymous, including comments, replies and other information may become public. We cannot control how your information is used by others. Your posts are available to all other users in your company. We cannot control the sharing of SnapSuggest (non-anonymous) content, no matter who posted it, though other third party sites like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
  • Service Providers. We may disclose the information we collect from you to third party vendors, service providers, contractors or agents who perform functions on our behalf.
