SHARING OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
Your personally identifiable information will not be rented or sold to any third party. ZINK Imaging may share your personal information in the following ways:
Companies Who Work on Our Behalf
We contract with other companies to perform business support functions on our behalf, the performance of which may require limited access to your personal information.

We also may make aggregate non-personal information available to select service providers.
ZINK Imaging's Subsidiaries and Joint Ventures
A subsidiary or a joint venture is an organization in which ZINK Imaging owns at least a 50% interest. If ZINK Imaging shares your personal information with a subsidiary or joint venture partner, ZINK Imaging will forbid them to transfer your personal information to any third-party for any marketing purposes or use your personal information contrary to your expressed choices. If you have opted not to receive marketing information from ZINK Imaging, we will not share your personal information with our subsidiaries or joint venture partners for their marketing purposes.
Co-branded and Partner Pages
ZINK Imaging may share information with partner companies who jointly present special offers or promotions on co branded pages within the Site. You will be notified of such information sharing when you are asked to furnish personal information on such co-branded pages within the Site. The partner company's use of any information you submit on such co-branded pages will be governed by the partner company's privacy policy, which you will be able to review before submitting any information on a co-branded page on the Site.

Other than as specifically described in this privacy policy, ZINK Imaging will obtain your consent before sharing your personal information with third parties.

We will give you an opportunity to opt-out of receiving promotional e mail when you register for a service, provide us with your personal information, or when we send you e mail.

Please remember that if you opt-out of receiving promotional e mail from us, you may not receive special offers that may be of value to you.
