PERSONALIZATION AND COOKIES:
A cookie is a piece of data sent by us and stored on the user's hard drive containing
information about the user. We use cookies for three reasons: (1) to keep track
of your information for your own convenience and to help you avoid having to re-key
in data; (2) to help us optimize your online experience by altering our content
to provide you with information more likely to be relevant to you; and (3) to
help us understand the size of our audience and their traffic patterns within

you are accessing the Website, you should ensure that your browser accepts cookies.
If a user rejects the cookie, it may still use our Website. The only drawback

HOW IS PERSONAL INFORMATION USED?
BUYERS:

also may be exchanged with other companies for fraud protection and credit risk
protection. However, when confirming a successful transaction, we reveal only

to provide your contact information to the seller or manufacturer of the equipment
you purchased. Megown Test & Measurement Inc. makes no representation or warranty concerning such
