The MergeDocsNow may alter the design of your new tab page and start page so that your browser is directed to load hp.myway.com/mergedocsnow/ttab02/. Additionally, users may be redirected to ext.ask.com/index.jhtm and urged to set Ask.com as their primary search provider. When you proceed to install the MergeDocsNow app you will be invited to grant the following privileges to the extension:

As mentioned above, the MergeDocsNow browser extension by Mindspark Interactive Network, Inc. is an ad-supported product that you can install and use for free. Marketers that partner with Mindspark may access data like your downloads log, Internet history, software configuration, and how much time you spent on pages online. You are provided with targeted advertisements whenever you open a new tab powered by hp.myway.com/mergedocsnow/ttab02/ and may redirected to promotional materials occasionally. MergeDocsNow may provide users with a collection of links to sites like Facebook, YouTube, Freepdfconvert.com, Britannica.com, Wetransfer.com, and Slideshare.net that you are likely to find useful. However, many users may not be comfortable with the extended access required by MergeDocsNow and the personalized commercials on their new tab.
