Please note, however, that Dörken reserves the right to transfer personally identifiable information and other information to its successors in business and purchasers of Site assets. Except as provided for herein, Dörken does not sell or otherwise transfer personally identifiable information to other persons or organizations.
If you submit personally identifiable information, you may subsequently ask Dörken to delete such information and to cease further contact with you by sending a request titled "Privacy-Urgent" to [email protected].
