  • To authenticate your identity
  • To maintain accurate customer records
  • To comply with legal and regulatory requirements
  • To arrange for completion of sales transactions with payment processors or other financial institutions

We may also use your personal information to offer additional or alternate products and services to you and may add your personal information to customer lists for this purpose. We may share your personal information with closely affiliated third parties so that they may offer their products or services to you.

    You may instruct us to refrain from using or sharing your personal information for any of the purposes described above at any time by providing written notification to our Privacy Officer.  We will not refuse you access to any product or service merely because you have instructed us to stop using or sharing your personal information.

    CONSENT

    We will obtain your consent to collect, use or disclose personal information except where we are authorized or required by law to do so without consent.

    Your consent can be express, implied or given through an authorized representative such as a lawyer, agent or broker. Consent may be provided orally, in writing, electronically, through inaction (such as when you fail to notify us that you do not wish your personal information collected/used/disclosed for various purposes after you have received notice of those purposes) or otherwise.

    You may withdraw consent at any time, subject to legal, contractual and other restrictions, provided that you give us reasonable notice of withdrawal of consent. If you notify us that you withdraw consent, we will inform you of the likely consequences of that withdrawal, which may include our inability to provide certain services for which that information is necessary.

    LIMITS ON COLLECTION AND USE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

    We will not collect personal information indiscriminately but will limit collection of personal information to that which is reasonable and necessary.  We will also collect personal information as authorized by law.

    Your personal information will only be used or disclosed for the purposes set out above and as authorized by law.

    We will destroy, erase or make anonymous documents or other records containing personal information as soon as it is reasonable to assume that the original purpose is no longer being served by retention of the information and retention is no longer necessary for a legal or business purpose.

    We will take due care when destroying personal information so as to prevent unauthorized access to the information.

    ACCURACY

    We will make a reasonable effort to ensure that personal information we are using or disclosing is accurate and complete.

    If you demonstrate that personal information is inaccurate or incomplete, we will amend the information as required. If a challenge regarding the accuracy of personal information is not resolved to your satisfaction, we will annotate the personal information under our control with a note that the correction was requested but not made.

    SAFEGUARDING PERSONAL INFORMATION

    We protect the personal information in our custody or control by making reasonable physical, organizational and electronic security arrangements to prevent unauthorized access, collection, use, disclosure, copying, modification, disposal or similar risks.

    We will take reasonable measures, through contractual or other reasonable means, to ensure that a comparable level of personal information protection is implemented by the suppliers and agents who assist in providing services.

    Note that confidentiality and security are not assured when information is transmitted through e-mail or other wireless communication.

    ACCESS

    You have a right to access personal information about yourself that we hold. Upon written request and authentication of identity, we will provide you with the personal information under our control.  We will also give you information about the ways in which that information is being used and a description of the individuals and organizations to whom that information has been disclosed.  We may charge you a reasonable fee for doing so.

    In some situations, we may not be able to provide access to certain personal information (e.g., if disclosure would reveal personal information about another individual, the personal information is protected by solicitor/client privilege, the information was collected for the purposes of an investigation or where disclosure of the information would reveal confidential commercial information that could harm our competitive position).  We may also be prevented by law from providing access to certain personal information.

    Where an access request is refused, we will notify you in writing, document the reasons for refusal and outline further steps which are available to you.
