Information We Share
We do not share Personal Data collected through the Sites or Services with companies, organizations and individuals outside of BF Alert systems unless one of the following circumstances applies:

3. For external processing.

These third parties, including, without limitation, , 9-1-1 or equivalent services, fire, police, emergency medical, emergency management, public health services, services providing safety-related monitoring and response (collectively, “Emergency Service Providers”) and communication service providers. Examples of permitted disclosure of Personal Data include:
- Your wireless phone number may be submitted to participating Emergency Service Providers, in order to locate the device during an emergency or transmit messages that you send or receive. We may store or archive snapshots of then-current Subscriber information as it’s made available to Emergency Service Providers, for the period of time dictated by their record keeping policies. Such third parties may use such information to send emergency and general interest notifications to you via various communication methods (e.g. voice calls, text messaging, email, etc.).
-
In the event an emergency call or other direct communication is placed from your phone or device, and provided that the Emergency Service Provider receiving the call uses our Services, your information may be displayed on the answering operator’s workstation screen or made available to emergency responders.
-
In the event a non-9-1-1 call is made to an Emergency Service Provider from your phone and is then routed into a 9-1-1 system, if the receiving 9-1-1 agency uses our Services your information may be displayed on the 9-1-1 operator’s workstation screen. In these situations, once information is passed to the local 9-1-1 authorities, we no longer have control over the transmission of the information. It may be conveyed verbally over an unsecured radio or transmitted in some other way to the responding emergency response team or others.
-
In the event an Emergency Service Provider uses the Services’ database query tools, and your information includes an address within the querying provider’s jurisdiction, and a portion of your information matches the provider’s query criteria, and if you have elected to participate in this portion of our Services, your information will be displayed in the search results presented to that provider.

We do not share Personal Data with third parties for their own marketing purposes.

We may dispute such demands when we believe, in our discretion, that the requests are overbroad, vague or lack proper authority, but we do not promise to challenge every demand.

Third Party Links
The Site may contain links to webpages operated by parties other than BF Alert Systems . We do not control such websites and are not responsible for their contents or the privacy policies or other practices of such websites. Our inclusion of links to such websites does not imply any endorsement of the material on such websites or any association with their operators. Further, it is up to the user to take precautions to ensure that whatever links the user selects or software the user downloads from such websites is free of such items as viruses, worms, trojan horses, defects and other items of a destructive nature. These websites and services may have their own privacy policies, which the user will be subject to upon linking to the third party’s website. BF Alert Systems strongly recommends that each user review the third party’s terms and policies.
How We Protect Personal Data
BF Alert Systems maintains administrative, technical and physical safeguards designed to protect the user’s Personal Data and information against accidental, unlawful or unauthorized destruction, loss, alteration, access, disclosure or use. We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk, taking into account technological reality, cost, the scope, context and purposes of processing weighted against the severity and likelihood that the processing could threaten individual rights and freedoms. For example, we use commercially reasonable security measures such as encryption, firewalls, and transport layer security (TLS) or hypertext transfer protocol secure (HTTPS) to protect Personal Data. However, BF Alert Systems cannot guarantee the security of user account or other personal information. Unauthorized entry or use, hardware or software failure, and other factors, could compromise the security of user information at any time.
Direct Marketing and “Do Not Track” Signals
BF Alert Systems does not track its customers over time or across third party websites to provide targeted advertising and therefore does not respond to Do Not Track (DNT) signals. However, some third-party sites do keep track of your browsing activities when they serve you content, which enables them to tailor what they present to you. If you are visiting such sites, your browser may include controls to block and delete cookies, web beacons and similar technologies, to allow you to opt out of data collection through those technologies.
Rights of California Residents
California residents are entitled under the California Consumer Privacy Act to contact us for various purposes, including to request information about whether we have disclosed personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. We do not disclose personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. California residents have the right to be informed as to what personal information about them we may have, how we collect and may use that information and how to have it corrected or deleted and may request further information about our compliance with this law by contacting us by one of the means listed in the “How to Contact Us” section below.
