improve and optimize our Site (for example, by generating analytics about
how our customers browse and interact with the Site, and to assess the
success of our marketing and advertising campaigns).
Finally, we may also share your Personal Information to comply with applicable
laws and regulations, to respond to a subpoena, search warrant or other
lawful request for information we receive, or to otherwise protect our
