Mergers and Acquisitions
Circumstances may arise where, whether for strategic or other business reasons, Top Gun decides to sell, buy, merge or otherwise reorganize businesses.

It is Top Gun’s practice to seek appropriate protection for information in these types of transactions.
Cookies, and Other Technologies
We sometimes collect non-identifiable information from visits to our Web sites to help us provide better client service. For example, we measure visitor activity on the Top Gun Web site, but we do so in ways that keep the information non-identifiable. Top Gun or others on Top Gun ‘s behalf may use this data to analyze trends and statistics and to help us provide better client service.
Also, when we collect personal data from you in a transaction, we may extract some information about that transaction in a non-identifiable format and combine it with other non-identifiable information. This information is used and analyzed only at an aggregate level to help us understand trends and patterns. This information is not reviewed at an individual level. If you do not want your transaction details used in this manner you can disable your cookies.
We collect the information we mentioned in the previous paragraphs through the use of various technologies, including one called “cookies”. A cookie is a piece of data that a web site can send to your browser, which may then be stored on your computer as an anonymous tag that identifies your computer but not you.
