the Information It Receives?
Your trust
regarding the information
that we gather about our

and we are not in the business
of selling it to others.
We share guest information,
as described below, with
the parent company, subsidiaries
and partner/affiliates of Tools
for a TimeTM that
either are subject to this
Privacy Notice or follow
practices at least as protective
as those described in this
Privacy Notice.
Affiliated
Businesses We Do Not Control: We
work closely with many
affiliated partners and
businesses. In some cases,
such as Dell, McAfee, Verizon
and Amazon.com, an affiliate
may sell through Tools
for a TimeTM or
sell select offerings to
you while at Tools
for a TimeTM.
In other cases, we may
operate sites, provide
services, or sell product
lines jointly with these
businesses.
Agents: We
may employ other companies
and individuals to perform
functions on our behalf.
Examples include sending
postal mail and e-mail, removing
repetitive information from
guest lists, analyzing data,
providing marketing assistance,
providing search results
and links (including paid
listings and links), and
providing guest service.
They have access to personal
information needed to perform
their functions, but may
not use it for other purposes.
Promotional
Offers: Sometimes
we send offers to selected
groups of Tools
for a TimeTM guests
on behalf of other businesses.
When we do this, we do
not give that business
your name and address.
We will only send offers
to those who have subscribed
to our e-mail list.
Business
Transfers: As
we continue to develop
our business, we might
sell or buy sites, subsidiaries,
or business units. In such
transactions, guest information
generally is one of the
transferred business assets
but remains subject to
the promises made in any
pre-existing Privacy Notice
(unless, of course, the
guest consents otherwise).
Also, in the unlikely event
that Tools for
a TimeTM,
Inc., or substantially
all of its assets are acquired,
guest information will,
of course be one of the
transferred assets.

for a TimeTM and
Others: We release
personal information when
we believe release is appropriate
to: comply with the law;
enforce or apply our Conditions
of Use and other agreements;

property, or safety of Tools

our guests, or others.
This includes exchanging
information with other
companies and organizations
for fraud protection and

renting, sharing, or otherwise
disclosing personally identifiable
information from guests
for commercial purposes
in violation of the commitments
set forth in this Privacy
