NGUZO may use trusted third-party service providers to help operate the website or provide services such as website hosting, email communications, database management, security, or other technical functions.

Where these service providers have access to personal information, access should be limited to what is reasonably necessary for them to provide their services.

NGUZO does not authorize service providers to use personal information for their own unrelated purposes.
