Certain areas of the Brimma website, however, may require or allow the voluntarily submission of Personally Identifiable Information (for example, registration to receive Brimma publications).

Removal of Personally Identifiable Information. Brimma will use reasonable efforts to remove Your Personally Identifiable Information from our then current Brimma website at any time upon Your written request to info@brimmatech.com.

Additionally, we cannot fully ensure that Your Personally Identifiable Information will not be disclosed to third parties. For example, we may be legally obligated to disclose information to the government or third parties under certain circumstances, third parties may circumvent our security measures to unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications, or an error may occur in the administration of the Brimma website. In the unlikely event that Brimma needs to investigate or resolve possible problems or inquiries, we may, and You authorize us to, disclose any information about You to government officials as permitted by applicable law.
