We process the Analytics Information, Feedback and the Prospects Information to assess the Service performance, maintain and improve the Service, for quality assurance, for development and enhancement of the Service and for providing the Prospects Information to other Users.
We will use the Analytics Information and Feedback to prevent fraud and abuse, resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems, assist with any investigations, and enforce our Terms of Service.
