In particular, PERKKART may disclose your business contact information and / or personal information to intellectual property rights holders where:

To the extent permissible by applicable law, you agree not to take any action and/or waive your rights to take any action against PERKKART for the disclosure of your business contact information or your personal information in these circumstances.
