We use the Personal Data, the Billing Information, and the Other Information to provide you access to and usage of the Site, solicit your feedback, inform you about our products and services and those of our third-party marketing partners, to administer our rewards and promotional programs, and to improve our services to you.

- Modalta, like many businesses, sometimes hires other companies to perform certain business-related functions. For example, we may pass your Personal Data and Billing Information to our designated service providers in order to process payments, ship products, send mailings, and maintain databases.

By engaging in any transactions on our Site, you agree and consent to Modalta forwarding of your Personal Data, Billing Information and Other Information to said third parties.

- Modalta may sponsor promotions or contests directly or through third parties, or Modalta may enter into collaborative relationships with other third parties on the Site. If you participate in these activities or events, you may be asked to provide Personal Data or to answer questions that seek your personal data.
