Protecting your privacy is important to IT FACTORY. Here is how IT FACTORY collects, uses, and safeguards the personal information you provide on our Web site:

Information collection
When you browse the IT FACTORY Web site, we do not collect personal information, including your email address.

This type of information helps us to continually develop our Web site to best meet your needs. We do not link your IP address to anything personally identifiable, and unless you register on our site, we do not know your personal identity.

Like many other Web sites, the IT FACTORY Web site may use a standard technology called an "Internet cookie." Internet cookies are small files that may be placed on your hard disk for record-keeping purposes. We use cookies for two purposes:

1) to estimate our audience size by determining repeat usage of the Web site; and

Please also be aware that Web sites that have links to our site may collect personally identifiable information about you. The information practices of those Web sites are not covered in this privacy statement. We encourage you to learn about the privacy practices of those Web sites you visit.
