When you visit our site, our web server automatically logs the following information, which cannot be used to identify you personally:

• The Internet Protocol (IP) address of your computer (the numeric representation of your computer's connection to the Internet, which cannot identify you)
• The type and version of the browser and operating system you are using
• The date and time you access our website
• The particular pages you visit on our website
• If applicable, the name of the domain from which you linked directly to our website

We use the above non-identifiable information, which is not linked to personally identifiable information, to gather and analyze aggregated data for improving our website and making it more useful to our visitors.

We also use a third-party tracking service, Google® Analytics, which employs cookies to gather non-identifiable, aggregated information (e.g., IP address, browser type, operating system, pages viewed) that we analyze to determine website usage trends.

We use both session and permanent cookies to store certain types of information that cannot identify you. Session cookies (also called transient cookies) are automatically erased from your computer's temporary memory when you close your browser. Permanent cookies, which are stored on your hard drive, are available until a specified expiration date.

Cookies are special messages in text files that are sent to your computer by our server. Each time you request a page from us, these messages are sent back to our server. Cookies cannot collect any information from your hard drive, cannot be used to find out anything about you, and cannot be used to spread computer viruses. In addition, we do not link the information stored in cookies to any personally identifiable information that you provide to us.

Helping us to keep track of your activity, cookies allow you to have a more enjoyable and productive experience on our website. They make it possible to:

• Login to your account
• Navigate our website more efficiently
• View customized pages that relate to your interests and needs
• Keep track of items placed in your shopping cart
• Partially complete a form and return later to finish it
• Provide you with information about items you may be interested in

• Use our shopping cart and submit an online order

Our Web pages contain electronic images known as "Web beacons" (sometimes called single-pixel GIFs), which are used along with cookies to compile aggregated statistics. Such statistics help us determine how our site is used and may be used by analyzing which emails and links have been opened by recipients. These aggregated statistics allow us to gauge the effectiveness of our customer communications and marketing campaigns.

You can browse certain unsecured areas of our website without telling us who you are or without providing any personally identifiable information. If you choose to use certain features or services we offer, however, you will need to give us personally identifiable information. You always have the option not to use a particular feature or service and to withhold personally identifiable information.

Personally identifiable information is any information that identifies you or can be used to identify, contact, or locate you. In addition, personally identifiable information includes any information from which your identification or contact information can be derived. Finally, unique information (e.g., personal profile, unique identifier), which by itself cannot be used to identify an individual, is considered personally identifiable information if it is associated with personally identifiable information. Personally identifiable information includes, but is not limited to the following: name, address, telephone number, fax number, email address, social security number, financial profile, credit card information. Personally identifiable information does not include information that is collected anonymously or demographic information that is not connected to an identified individual.

You will need to provide personally identifiable information if you want to use certain features or services on our website, such as the following:

• Register as a user, thereby opening a Company Account
• Open an Administrator Account within a Company Account.
• Order a product
• Complete an information request or feedback form
• Refer business colleagues to us
• Complete a survey or questionnaire
• Send an email to us

Anyone who has registered with us is eligible to participate in our BizRewards referral program, which rewards individuals who refer their business colleagues to us. If you choose to use this program to tell a business colleague about our website, we will ask you for this person's name and email address.

We will send your referrals a one-time email inviting them to visit our website. We will also let your referrals know that you made the referral. We use the information you provide for the sole purpose of sending an email to your referrals and determining the success of our referral program.

We will not call your referrals without their explicit consent. We do not sell, lease, or rent their personally identifiable information to anyone for marketing or advertising purposes.

You are permitted to resend our invitation to your referrals who may have lost the invitation or deleted it. We give your referrals the opportunity, however, to opt out of receiving any future emails regarding the BizRewards referral program simply by clicking on the "opt out" link at the end of the invitation.

We do not invade your privacy by using software that collects personally identifiable information without your knowledge (i.e., spyware). We vehemently oppose the use of hidden programs that steal information from your computer and transmit it to someone else for marketing and advertising purposes.

We use your personally identifiable information and other information we obtain from your activities on our website for the following purposes:

• To customize your online experience
• To deliver the services you request
• To process your orders and other transactions
• To ship you products ordered from us
• To notify you regarding the status of your orders
• To respond to your inquiries, requests, comments, and complaints
• To notify you of matters pertaining to your account
• To notify you of changes to our website and policies
• To contact individuals you refer to us
• To maintain our records for business purposes
• To perform various activities as described to you when we collect the information

By using our website and providing us personally identifiable information, you are authorizing us to use this information for the purposes indicated above.

In addition, by emailing us or calling us for information or assistance or by activating or requesting activation of a free trial of our WebAssess online testing system, you are giving us your explicit consent to email you or call you to provide requested information or assistance or to determine whether WebAssess meets your particular needs.

We need to request additional information from certain third parties in order to provide you the services indicated below:

• If you order our products, we use a FedEx® software service to verify your shipping address so that shipping errors are minimized and you receive your orders in a timely fashion.
• If you want to increase your business credit line with us, we use your company name and D&B® DUNS Number to obtain a Dun & Bradstreet® business credit report so that we can determine your creditworthiness. We keep this document as long as we maintain a business relationship with your organization.

By requesting the above services, you are authorizing us to use the required information provided by you for the purposes indicated above.

Your personally identifiable information may be used from time to time:

• To inform you about our products and services that may be of interest to you
• To notify you of new and improved products and services that may meet your needs
• To notify you of promotional discounts and special product offers that may be of interest to you

You agree that we may use your personally identifiable information to send you emails regarding our products and services and other information targeted to your interests.

You are allowed to select the types of email notifications you want to receive from us, or to opt out of receiving any future emails, at the time you register with us. You may opt out of receiving emails from us at any time by updating your email notification preferences in your account. In other words, you always have the opportunity to tell us not to send you these emails.

We believe selling, leasing, or renting personally identifiable information without your knowledge is a deplorable infringement on privacy. As a consulting firm that has always safeguarded confidential information provided by our clients, we treat your privacy very seriously.

We establish business relationships with third parties that provide certain services on our behalf (i.e., service providers). These services may include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Processing credit card and financial information
• Verifying membership in certain organizations, which qualifies customers to receive discounts on our products
• Obtaining authorization for customers to use certain products
• Processing, packaging, and shipping orders for our products
• Providing service or technical support to our customers
• Responding to inquiries and requests for information regarding our products and services

It is necessary to disclose personally identifiable information to our service providers to allow them to perform certain business functions, such as providing information you requested or shipping a product you ordered. These service providers have agreed to maintain the confidentiality and security of any personally identifiable information they are provided. They are restricted from using personally identifiable information for any purpose other than to provide the services they are contracted to perform.

In some situations, a service provider may need to collect additional information from you. If you provide additional personally identifiable information to a service provider, then their use of this information is governed by their own privacy policy.

We market and sell certain products developed or owned by other organizations (i.e., our business affiliates). We work with our business affiliates to offer you a broad array of products for meeting your needs.

We disclose to our business affiliates only the personally identifiable information that is required for accounting purposes. This information typically includes your name and address, what you bought, and the dollar amount of the purchase.

Like service providers, our business affiliates have agreed to maintain the confidentiality and security of any personally identifiable information they are provided. They have also agreed not to use your personally identifiable information in any other way, which includes marketing and promoting their products and services, without your explicit consent.

When you want us to add an administrator to your Company Account, we need to inform the individual that you made the request. We also provide your contact information to this individual in case he/she has any questions about the Company Account.

By emailing us or completing a survey, questionnaire, BizTool, or any other data-gathering device on our website, you agree that we have the unrestricted right to use your input and feedback for any purpose. Your input and feedback include your questions, comments, suggestions, and responses to open-ended and closed-ended questions. Your input and feedback used for marketing or other business purposes will remain anonymous (i.e., we will not disclose your first and last name unless you give us permission to do so).

We may share personally identifiable information with third parties (e.g., law enforcement agencies, government agencies, banks, credit card companies, credit card processors) as required or permitted by law. We will disclose personally identifiable information for the following legal purposes:

• To comply with search warrants, subpoenas, court orders, and other legal procedures
• To report suspected illegal activity, such as fraud, intellectual property infringement, and piracy
• To prevent imminent physical harm or financial loss

We will use our sole discretion to release personally identifiable information to third parties if we believe that such disclosure is reasonably necessary for:

• Legal compliance
• Enforcement of any of our policies
• Protection of the rights, property, and safety of our visitors, customers, business affiliates, or organization

We use various techniques to protect your personally identifiable information against unauthorized access and disclosure, loss, and theft.

Our main business is to give you helpful information based on information you provide to us. Since your personally identifiable information is highly important to us, we use physical, technological, and administrative procedures to safeguard its security, confidentiality, and integrity.

We apply widely used, recognized industry standards to keep your personal information safe and secure. In addition, only authorized personnel have access to our databases.

We use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology every time you provide or access personally identifiable information in the secured areas on our website. This standard security technology encrypts information transmitted over the Internet between your computer and our servers. Encryption makes it possible to have a "secured session" or "private conversation." The encrypted link between our servers and your browser prevents unauthorized individuals from seeing the information being transmitted.

You need to meet the following technical requirements to be able to benefit from the SSL technology we use:

• SSL-Compatible Browser – You need to use a browser that supports SSL, such as Netscape Navigator®, Mozilla Firefox®, and Microsoft Internet Explorer®. Some older versions of browsers are not SSL-compatible. We recommend that you use the latest browser version available.
• Compliant Internet Service Provider (ISP) – Most ISPs automatically enable SSL sessions that safeguard your personally identifiable information. If you use your company's intranet to access the Internet, a "firewall" installed on your network may block access to our secured areas. If you encounter this problem, please notify the person responsible for Internet access in your organization.
• Enabled Cookies – If you have disabled cookies on your browser, you will not be able to provide or access personally identifiable information on our website.

We want you to be confident that your personally identifiable information, including credit card information, remains private and secure. Therefore, we have received an SSL Certificate from GeoTrust®, a major international certification authority. You may verify our identity by clicking on the GeoTrust logo on various pages of our website.

Our SSL Certificate guarantees that:

• We have been validated as a legitimate business and a legally accountable organization.
• You have a secured, encrypted link to our website every time you see the gold padlock in the toolbar of your browser.

To ensure that your personally identifiable information remains confidential, we require you to enter your user name and password every time you login to the secured areas of our website. This additional security measure allows us to identify you and to prevent unauthorized access to your personally identifiable information. We recommend that you use a password that other people cannot easily guess. We also recommend that you keep your password secret and never share it with anyone.

After you login and are finished using one of our secured areas, we recommend that you immediately end the secured session by clicking on "Logout," which appears on every page of our website. This practice prevents unauthorized access to your personally identifiable information.

Keep in mind that browser software often "caches" pages. This means that some pages are saved in your browser's history so that you can view them again by using the "Back" button. Caching does not affect the security of your user name and password. If you need to leave your computer after accessing or providing personally identifiable information on our website, be sure to close your browser to prevent unauthorized access to this information.

Due to the regulatory environment and problems with existing technology, we cannot promise that your personally identifiable information or email communications will always remain confidential. For example, under certain circumstances a law enforcement or government agency may force us to disclose your personally identifiable information, or someone may unlawfully intercept or access your Internet transmissions or email communications. Despite all our best efforts to protect your personally identifiable information, please remember that "perfect security" does not exist on the Internet.

We follow the "10 Principles of Fair Information Practices" described in Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act ("Canadian Privacy Act"). Not only do we uphold these principles, but we also ensure that our service providers and business affiliates abide by these standards, which are summarized as follows:

• Obtain your consent when we collect, use, or disclose your personally identifiable information
• Use your personally identifiable information only for the purposes for which it was collected
• Obtain your consent to use your personally identifiable information for other purposes
• Limit the collection, use, disclosure, and retention of your personally identifiable information
• Provide you access to your personally identifiable information that we collect
• Use acceptable techniques to maintain the accuracy of your personally identifiable information
• Allow you to challenge the accuracy of your personally identifiable information
• Use acceptable safeguards to protect your personally identifiable information

Our website may contain links to other websites. If you use these websites, please keep in mind that you are subject to their privacy policies. Since the privacy policies of websites vary widely, we encourage you to read these policies and to exercise care each time you provide personally identifiable information on any website.

You may always cancel your account with us at any time. In addition, if you have registered with us, you may always review, correct, update, or delete personally identifiable information in your account. For security reasons, we will not be able to modify your personally identifiable information if you email or call us with such a request.

We market our products and services only to adults. No part of our website is designed to attract any person under the age of 13. In accordance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998, we do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under the age of 13.

If an organizational change at GreatBizTools, LLC (e.g., merger, acquisition by another company, sale of assets) affects ownership or control of your personally identifiable information, we will notify you of any such change via email and/or prominent notice on our website.

We will retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you services. If you wish to cancel your account or request that we no longer use your information to provide you services, contact us at privacy@greatbiztools.com. We will retain and use your information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

This privacy policy was last changed on June 3, 2015. Since we reserve the right to modify or amend our privacy policy at any time, please review it periodically to make sure you are familiar with it.

Thirty (30) calendar days prior to implementing any material changes to our privacy policy, we will inform you of such changes in a prominent notice on one or more appropriate pages of our website, such as our home page and/or our privacy policy.

If permitted by email notification preferences, we will email individuals who have registered with us a notification of any significant changes to our privacy policy thirty (30) calendar days prior to implementing such changes. Unless we clearly state otherwise, only the information we collect after the effective date of the revised policy will be affected.

If you have any questions about our privacy policy or if you have any concerns or problems with any aspect of our policy, please email our Privacy Officer at privacy@greatbiztools.com.
