Government Information Request

RMG GROUP Protection respects our Users’ privacy and will not disclose their information to governmental entities unless one of the following conditions is met: we are legally compelled to do so, the disclosure is to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children in connection with a report submitted thereto, the disclosure is to a Governmental Entity and we believe in good faith that an emergency involving death or serious physical injury to any person requires disclosure without delay, or the disclosure is necessary for RMG GROUP Protection to render service or to protect the rights or property of RMG GROUP Protection. Users will be notified of any requests for their information prior to disclosure unless: prohibited by legal process, RMG GROUP Protection is requested not to notify the user by the Governmental Entity, notification to the User would adversely impact RMG GROUP Protection or its assets, it is in an emergency situation, or when notice would lead to an adverse result as defined in 18 U.S.C. § 2705. Governmental entities who believe that notification would jeopardize an investigation are requested to obtain an appropriate court order or other appropriate process prohibiting notice to Users.

For purposes of this Procedure, a Governmental Entity is a department or agency of the United States or any State or political subdivision thereof. These requests should be made via the appropriate service of process on RMG GROUP Protection. Emergency requests should also be sent to governmental.entity.requests@rmgprotection.com. 

This Procedure is not applicable to subpoenas issued in the ordinary course of business such as requests relating to criminal defendants, civil litigants, or any other non-governmental requests.

Note: In order to respond to a subpoena or other court ordered request for documents, the requester must follow all required procedures for issuance and service of the subpoena. Simply e-mailing a request to governmental.entity.requests@rmgprotection.com will not constitute proper issuance and service of process.

Information Collected by RMG GROUP Protection

RMG GROUP Protection collects User information in accordance with our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service. While some non-personally identifiable information about Users and their use of our service is collected, most personal device data, including current location information and backup content, is readily accessible by individual RMG GROUP Protection Users through RMG GROUP Protection’s standard products and services. Thus, the fastest way for governmental entities to obtain User information is to work with the User to obtain the desired information directly from our products and services. Also, some information is maintained by RMG GROUP Protection clients and not RMG GROUP Protection; requests for such information should be directed to the appropriate client.

Process To Request Information

RMG GROUP Protection requires appropriate, properly issued and served legal requests prior to disclosing User information unless a recognized exception to the requirement for properly served legal requests exists. Currently recognized exceptions to the requirement for legal process include:

• Disclosure with the lawful consent of the person.
• Disclosure to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children in connection      with a report thereto.
• Disclosure to a governmental entity if we believe in good faith that an emergency      involving death or serious physical injury to any person requires disclosure without delay.
• As may be necessary for the protection of the rights or property of RMG GROUP      Protection.

If you believe a request falls within one of these stated exceptions, include the notation “Applicable Exception Request” in the email header to governmental.entity.requests@rmgprotection.com. If it does fall into one of the recognized exceptions, we will process the request on an expedited basis.

Notification to other Parties

Where an information request is impacted by contractual obligations with a third party requiring notice and/or consent prior to or following disclosure, the RMG GROUP Protection Legal Department will work with the appropriate parties to provide notice where not otherwise prohibited by law.

Process to Request Preservation of Information

Governmental entities may request RMG GROUP Protection to preserve information for 90 days pending obtaining a court order or other process. This request may be extended for an additional 90 days. Specificity as to the information to be preserved is required. Preservation requests sent to RMG GROUP Protection must be signed and include all the information outlined in “Process to Request Information” section above.
