Except as stated in the next sentence, Webstore will not sell or rent your personal information to third parties. Webstore may sell, rent and disclose your personal information to the following third parties: artists and organizations for whom we operate a Web site (for example, a music group for whom we are operating a fan club Web site), and artists and organizations for whom we are selling merchandise for. Please be aware that these third parties may have their own policies governing how they will use and disclose your personal information which may be different from this Privacy Policy.
Webstore will not use or share your personal information in a manner that differs from what is described in this Privacy Policy without your prior consent.
Webstore uses your personal information for the operation and maintenance of your Webstore account and the Webstore Services.

These periodic e-mails are considered essential to the provision of the service you have requested. You cannot unsubscribe from these mailings. You may, however, choose not to participate in the surveys.
General Disclosure of Personal Information
Webstore occasionally hires other companies to provide services on our behalf, such as answering customer support inquiries. Webstore will only provide these companies with those pieces of your personal information needed to deliver the services, and the companies and their employees are prohibited from using that personal information for any other purpose. Webstore may share your personal information with third parties in order to fulfill a service or transaction you may have requested.
