took2.com Privacy Statement:

We reserve the right to change this Statement and will provide notification of the change at least thirty (30) business days prior to the change taking effect.

We require customers who register to use the services offered on our
Site (collectively, the "Service") to give us contact
information, such as their name, company name, address, phone number,
and e-mail address, and financial qualification and billing
information, such as billing name and address, credit card number,
and the number of users within the organization that will be using
the Service. At the time you express interest in attaining additional
information, or when you register for the Service, we may also ask
for additional personal information, such as title, department name,
fax number, or additional company information, such as annual
revenues, number of employees, or industry. Customers can opt out of
providing this additional information by not entering it when asked.
Customers can update or remove their personal information at any time
by logging into the Website and editing their Personal Information

their edits have been made.
took2.com uses the information

any personal customer information will not be distributed or shared

Cookies:
When you interact with the took2.com Website we strive to make that
experience easy and meaningful. When you come to our Web site, our
Web server sends a cookie to your computer. Cookies are files that
Web browsers place on a computer's hard drive and are used to tell us
whether customers and visitors have visited the Site
previously.
Standing alone, cookies do not identify you
personally. They merely recognize your browser. Unless you choose to
identify yourself to took2.com, either by responding to a promotional
offer, opening an account, you remain anonymous to took2.com.
Cookies come in two flavors: session and persistent-based.
Session cookies exist only during an online session. They
disappear from your computer when you close your browser software or

computer. They include such information as a unique identifier for
your browser.
took2.com uses session cookies containing
encrypted information to allow the system to uniquely identify you
while you are logged in. This information allows took2.com to
process your online transactions and requests. Session cookies help
us make sure you are who you say you are after you've logged in and
are required in order to use the took2.com application.
took2.com uses persistent cookies, that only took2.com can read and
use, to identify the fact that you are a took2.com customer or prior
took2.com Website visitor (whatever the case may be). We are
especially careful about the security and confidentiality of the
information stored in persistent cookies. For example, we do not
store account numbers or passwords in persistent cookies. Users

able to browse our Website but will not be able to successfully use
our Service.

time engage third parties to track and analyze non-personally

of took2.com is used only to provide us with information on site
usage and is not shared with any other third parties.
