Choices About How M&G Uses and Disclose Your Information

M&G may not be able to delete your personal information without also deleting your user account; M&G will notify you in such instances. M&G may not accommodate a request to change information if M&G believes the change would violate any law or legal requirement or cause the information to be incorrect.
