Except as provided in this privacy policy, we will not sell or trade your personal information to outside third parties. We may, however, release your information in connection with a sale, reorganization or reinvention of GOT or if necessary to comply with the law, enforce our site policies or protect our rights, property or safety.

For example, third-party applications, like Google Analytics, use cookies and collect usage data. This basically allows Google to analyze visitor behavior in an anonymous form in order to track, examine and compile statistical reports on the visitor traffic to and activity on GOT. We do not control how such third parties collect data or use cookies.
