to protect Riley’s personal information from being disclosed unnecessarily

The clause requires the leasing company to keep Riley's personal data private and only disclose it when legally required, so it does not permit marketing contacts, public photo postings, or routine sharing beyond allowed disclosures (e.g., as required by law).
