Service providers — We may share information with trusted third-party service providers who assist us in operating our website or conducting our business, such as website hosting providers and email platforms. These providers are contractually required to keep your information confidential and to use it only for the purposes for which it was shared.

Legal requirements — We may disclose your information if required to do so by law, court order, or government authority, or if we believe disclosure is necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of Malatesta Paladino Inc., our clients, or the public.
