We may disclose your information if we believe that disclosure is reasonably necessary to comply with a law, regulation, legal or governmental request; to enforce applicable terms of use; to protect the safety, rights, or property of the public, any person, or The Squiggle Box/The Squiggle Society; or to detect, prevent, or otherwise address security or technical issues or illegal or suspected illegal activities (including fraud).
