We may also proactively report you and disclose your information to third parties when we believe it is prudent to do so for legal reasons, such as our belief that you have engaged in fraudulent activities. You release us from any damages that may arise from or relate to our disclosure of your information to the request of law enforcement agencies or private litigants.
