3. Purposes for Processing Personal Information

3.1 Business Transactions with Customers
We process Personal Information through CK’s global IT systems, which include tools and systems that help us to administer customer accounts, orders and business transactions and share information across CK systems, and with related corporate entities, as described in Section 4.1 below. This includes transferring Personal Information to our servers in the US (see also Section 6.1 below).

3.2 SaaS Products
You may provide Personal Information to CK through our “Contact” page, by processing orders, or by participating in a Community, in order to use the SaaS products instances as follows:
• My College Roomie (“MCR”):

MCR is a social software to assist students with networking and self selection of roommates, as well as other housing and reslife functions.

MCR is an offered service that is optional in nature, unless otherwise determined by customer. Should you choose to utilize My College Roomie, the information that you enter into the system will be done so at-will. You may also choose to limit or stop the notifications that are sent by our system, within your profile settings. The security of your data is one of our greatest concerns. That is why we put extra effort into ensuring your data is always safe and up to date. You may change your information at any time, or may Contact Us if you want us to remove it completely from our database. If you do not wish to utilize My College Roomie and do not wish to receive more emails from us, you may simply take further action and no further communications will be sent.

MCR does collect student information such as interests and hobbies; however, users are reminded that disclosure of this information, and participation in the system altogether is options; our software does store data deemed by our clients to be necessary to fulfill their business practices
