If you submit something through Pass It Along or another Mahalo community feature, we may ask for permission to share your contribution within Mahalo or through our public channels.

How We Share Information

We may share information with trusted companies and service providers that help us operate Mahalo, including services that provide website hosting, community hosting, email delivery, payment processing, analytics, registration, and other business functions.

​

These providers receive information only as reasonably necessary to perform services on our behalf and are subject to their own privacy and security obligations.
