LookingPoint - Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 2026

LookingPoint, Inc., inclusive of its subsidiaries (collectively, "LookingPoint"), is dedicated to providing informative and useful information about its products and services through online, mobile, and other software and related systems and platforms, as well as through in-person, telephone, or other offline interactions and other aspects of LookingPoint's business (collectively, the "System"), including, without limitation, the website located at www.LookingPoint.com. As part of operating the System, LookingPoint collects certain information about users.

This Privacy Policy (the "Policy") governs data collection and use at, on, and through the System. Please read it carefully. Each time you use, browse, or otherwise access any part of the System, you signify your acceptance of the then-current Policy. If you do not agree with this Policy, you are not authorized to access or use the System.

Types of Data Collected

As you interact with the System, you may use online forms to request information, subscribe to our blog, or contact us. To operate the System and our business, LookingPoint collects two types of data:

(a) Personal Data — information that can be used to identify or contact an individual, such as name, company name, job title, email address, telephone number, and billing and transaction records (such as invoices, amounts billed, and payment status) for customers.

(b) Traffic Data — non-personal, aggregate, or technical data, such as IP address, the pages or portions of the System visited, the order in which areas are visited, the device and browser type used, and approximate, IP-based geographic region. Traffic Data generally does not identify individual users; it identifies System users as a whole, including aggregate usage and traffic patterns.

LookingPoint does not collect Sensitive Personal Information (such as government identifiers, precise geolocation, or information about health, race, religion, or similar categories) through the System. LookingPoint does not capture or store payment card numbers. Card payments are processed by a third-party payment processor through a separate, secure link provided to clients; card details are entered on the processor's platform and are never entered on or stored by LookingPoint's website or systems.

Collection and Usage

LookingPoint collects Personal Data when you provide it — for example, when you request information or a consultation, subscribe to the blog, contact us, or purchase or receive products and services. Traffic Data is collected automatically when you visit or use the System.

LookingPoint uses Collected Data to:

    • respond to your inquiries, consultation requests, and communications;
    • provide, manage, and support our products and services, including managing customer accounts and processing invoicing and payment;
    • send blog updates, newsletters, and marketing communications to subscribers;
    • operate, secure, analyze, and improve the System;
    • comply with our legal, tax, and contractual obligations; and
    • for any other purpose for which you give us your express consent.

LookingPoint discloses Collected Data only to: (i) service providers and contractors who perform functions on our behalf (such as hosting, CRM and marketing platforms, accounting and invoicing providers, and our third-party payment processor), who are restricted by contract from using the information in violation of this policy; (ii) professional advisors, such as our legal and accounting firms; and (iii) law enforcement, courts, or other governmental authorities where reasonably necessary to comply with law, respond to legal process, protect LookingPoint's rights and property, or protect the safety of any person.

LookingPoint may also transfer Collected Data in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of all or a portion of its assets or equity, in which case we will continue to handle the information consistent with this Policy.

Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights regarding your Personal Data, which may include the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of your Personal Data, and to opt out of certain marketing communications. California residents have additional rights described in the "Your California Privacy Rights (CCPA/CPRA)" section below. To exercise any of these rights, email us at Support@lookingpoint.com or call 925-566-3480. We may need to verify your identity before responding, as a security measure to ensure Personal Data is not disclosed to anyone who has no right to receive it.

Marketing Opt-Out

From time to time you may receive periodic emails or mailings from LookingPoint with news or information about our products and services. To stop receiving them, follow the unsubscribe instructions at the bottom of any marketing email, email us at Support@lookingpoint.com, or write to LookingPoint, Inc., Attn: Privacy Officer, 391 Taylor Blvd. Suite 120, Pleasant Hill, CA 94523. We will process your opt-out request.

Cookies and Related Technologies

LookingPoint may place small files called "cookies," as well as related technologies such as web beacons or pixel tags, on your device. We use these for purposes such as recognizing returning visitors, remembering preferences, keeping you signed in to portals, and understanding and improving how the System is used. The cookies that LookingPoint may use include:

  • Flash Cookies. Certain features of our System may use local stored objects (or Flash Cookies) to collect and store information about your preferences or your activity on our System.
  • Web Beacons. Certain sections of our System and our emails may contain small electronic files known as web beacons (also referred to as clear gifs, pixel tags, and single-pixel gifs) that permit LookingPoint, for example, to count users who have visited those pages or opened an email and for other related website statistics (for example tracking the popularity of a certain section and verifying system and server integrity).
  • Necessary / Essential Cookies. These cookies are essential to provide you with the products and services available by and through the System and to enable you to use its features. They help to authenticate users and prevent fraudulent use of user accounts. Without these cookies, the services that you have asked for may not be able to be provided.
  • Cookies Policy / Notice Acceptance Cookies These cookies identify a users cookie preferences set on our website.
  • Functionality Cookies These Cookies allow us to remember choices you make when you use the System, such as remembering your login details or language preference. The purpose of these cookies is to provide you with a more personal experience and to avoid you having to re-enter your preferences every time you use the System.
  • Tracking and Performance Cookies These Cookies are used to track Traffic Data. The information gathered via these cookies may directly or indirectly identify you as an individual visitor. This is because the information collected is typically linked to a pseudonymous identifier associated with the device you use to access the System. We may also use these cookies to test new pages, features or new functionality of the System to see how our users react to them.

You can manage non-essential cookies (including analytics cookies) at any time through our cookie preferences, accessible via the Cookie Settings link in our website footer, which reopens our consent banner so you can accept or decline categories of cookies. You can also configure your browser to refuse cookies, although some parts of the System may not function properly as a result.

LookingPoint recognizes and honors the Global Privacy Control (GPC) opt-out preference signal (see the California section below).

Your California Privacy Rights (CCPA / CPRA)

This section applies to California residents and supplements the rest of this Policy. It is provided under the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (collectively, the "CCPA"). It applies to personal information LookingPoint collects about California residents through any channel — our website, online forms, email, phone, in person, and our business and accounting systems — not only through our website. Terms defined in the CCPA have the same meaning when used here.

Categories of Personal Information We Collect

LookingPoint may collect the following categories of personal information:

    • Identifiers — name, email address, telephone number, and IP address.
    • Customer records / commercial information — company name, job title, billing and transaction records (such as invoices, amounts billed, and payment status), and records of products and services purchased or considered.
    • Internet or other electronic network activity — browsing and interaction history on our website, pages viewed, and aggregated analytics data.
    • Professional or employment-related information — job title and company name of business contacts.
    • Inferences — limited preferences drawn from the above to tailor our communications.

We do not collect Sensitive Personal Information from California residents through our services, we do not collect precise geolocation, and we do not capture payment card numbers (these are handled by a third-party payment processor via a separate, secure link, as described above).

Sources of Personal Information

We collect personal information directly from you — when you submit a website form, request a consultation, subscribe to our blog, communicate with us, or become a customer — and automatically through your use of our website (analytics). We do not acquire personal information about you from third-party data brokers or public-record aggregators for the operation of our site.

Purposes for Collecting Personal Information

We use personal information to respond to inquiries, consultation requests, and communications; to provide and support our products and services; to manage customer accounts and process invoicing and payment; to send blog updates and marketing communications to subscribers; to operate, secure, analyze, and improve our website and systems; and to comply with our legal, tax, and contractual obligations.

Categories of Third Parties

We disclose personal information for business purposes to the following categories of recipients: hosting, CRM, and marketing-platform providers; accounting and invoicing providers; a third-party payment processor (to enable client payments); professional advisors such as legal and accounting firms; and government or law enforcement authorities where required by law. These recipients act as our service providers or contractors and are restricted by contract from using the information for their own purposes.

Sale or Sharing of Personal Information

LookingPoint does not sell personal information, and does not share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising, as those terms are defined under the CCPA. We do not sell or share the personal information of consumers under 16 years of age.

If this practice changes in the future, we will update this notice and provide a method to opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information before any such activity begins.

Retention

We retain each category of personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes described above, then delete or de-identify it. Specifically:

    • Blog subscription and marketing contact data (name, email) — retained until you opt out or unsubscribe.
    • Website analytics data — retained for up to 36 months.
    • Customer account and billing/transaction records — retained for up to 10 years to meet our tax, accounting, and legal obligations.

We may retain information longer where required by law or to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.

Your Rights

California residents have the right to:

    • Know / Access — request the categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you, the sources, the purposes for collecting it, and the categories of third parties to whom we disclose it.
    • Delete — request that we delete personal information we collected from you, subject to legal exceptions (such as records we must retain for tax or legal purposes).
    • Correct — request correction of inaccurate personal information we maintain about you.
    • Opt out of sale or sharing — although we do not sell or share personal information, you retain this right should our practices ever change.
    • Non-discrimination — we will not discriminate against you for exercising any of these rights, including by denying services, charging different prices, or providing a different level or quality of service.

How to Submit a Request

You may submit a request to know, delete, or correct using either of the following methods:

    • Email us at Support@lookingpoint.com with your request described in the message; or
    • Call us at 925-566-3480.

We will take steps to verify your identity before fulfilling a request to know, delete, or correct, and we will respond within the timeframes required by the CCPA. You may designate an authorized agent to submit a request on your behalf; we may require the agent to provide proof of authorization and may require you to verify your own identity directly with us.

Opt-Out Preference Signals (Global Privacy Control)

We recognize and honor the Global Privacy Control (GPC) opt-out preference signal. When you visit our website with GPC enabled in your browser, we treat it as a valid request to opt out of any sale or sharing of personal information for that browser or device, and we display confirmation that the signal has been honored. Because these signals are specific to the browser or device, you may need to enable GPC on each browser and device you use.

"Do Not Track" Disclosure

Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) setting. There is no common industry standard for how to respond to DNT signals, and LookingPoint does not currently respond to DNT browser signals. LookingPoint does, however, recognize and honor the Global Privacy Control (GPC) opt-out preference signal, as described in the California section above.

Links to Third-Party Sites

The System may contain links to other websites or media not operated or controlled by LookingPoint. Since LookingPoint does not operate or control those sites, it is not responsible for their privacy practices or content. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any linked website before using it or providing personal information.

Measures to Safeguard Children

LookingPoint's products and services are not directed to or intended for children under the age of 13. LookingPoint does not knowingly collect or maintain personal information from children under 13. If LookingPoint learns that it has collected personal information from a child under 13, it will take steps to delete that information as soon as possible. If you believe a child under 13 may have provided us with personal information, please contact us at Support@lookingpoint.com.

Security

LookingPoint has implemented administrative, technical, and physical security measures designed to help protect Personal Data. For example, Personal Data is stored on systems accessible only by a limited, authorized set of individuals, and certain data submitted through web forms is transmitted using encryption (such as SSL/TLS). No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, however, and LookingPoint cannot guarantee the absolute security of Personal Data.

Changes to This Policy

LookingPoint reserves the right to change or modify this Policy, including to reflect feedback or changes in applicable law. Please revisit this Policy periodically for updates. Your continued use of the System after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated Policy.

Governing Law

This Policy and the System are governed by the laws of the State of California. Any claim arising from or relating to this Policy or the System shall be brought in a federal or state court located in Contra Costa County, California, within one year after the claim arises, and you consent to the jurisdiction of those courts. The System is controlled and operated within the United States.

SMS Privacy Policy

LookingPoint ("we," "our," or "us") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal information. This SMS Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and protect information related to our SMS authentication messaging service.

Program Description. LookingPoint operates an internal SMS authentication service used by authorized IT administrators to receive one-time passcodes (OTP) required to securely access Cisco administrative systems. When a login attempt is made to Cisco administrative portals, Cisco sends a one-time authentication code via SMS to a designated LookingPoint phone number. The message is automatically captured and securely forwarded to a restricted internal Webex space accessible only to authorized administrators. This service is used solely for internal operational security purposes.

Information We Collect. When participating in this service, we may collect: the mobile phone number used for authentication messaging; records of message delivery; user consent and access authorization records; and any responses sent to the messaging system.

How We Use Your Information. We use the information collected to deliver one-time authentication codes, enable secure administrative login verification, maintain system security and access control, and process opt-out or assistance requests.

Information Sharing. LookingPoint does not sell, rent, or share mobile phone numbers or messaging consent information with third parties for marketing purposes. Text-messaging originator opt-in data and consent will not be shared with any third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes.

Data Security. We implement industry-standard administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect mobile information from unauthorized access, disclosure, or misuse.

Message Frequency. Message frequency varies and is triggered by Cisco administrator login attempts.

Message and Data Rates. Message and data rates may apply depending on your mobile carrier and service plan.

Opt-Out. You may opt out of SMS authentication messages at any time by replying STOP to the number sending the message.

Support. For help with the messaging service, reply HELP or contact Support@lookingpoint.com.

SMS Terms and Conditions

Program Name: LookingPoint Cisco Administrator Authentication Service.

Program Description. The LookingPoint Cisco Administrator Authentication Service provides automated one-time passcodes (OTP) used to authenticate administrators accessing Cisco management systems. When an administrator attempts to log in to Cisco administrative portals, Cisco generates a one-time authentication code and sends it via SMS to a designated LookingPoint number. The message is automatically captured and routed to a secure internal Webex space accessible only to authorized IT administrators. This service is strictly for internal operational security purposes and is not used for marketing or promotional messaging.

Message Frequency. Message frequency varies and is triggered by administrator login attempts.

Pricing Disclosure. Message and data rates may apply depending on your mobile carrier and messaging plan.

Opt-Out Instructions. You may opt out at any time by replying STOP to the number from which you receive messages. After sending STOP, you will receive a confirmation message and will no longer receive SMS messages related to authentication.

Help. Reply HELP at any time, or contact Support@lookingpoint.com, for assistance.

Carrier Disclaimer. Mobile carriers are not responsible for delayed or undelivered messages.
