How We Protect Your Information; Data Retention
The security of your information is important to us.
Due to the inherent open nature of the Internet, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us or any information provided online. We urge you to take every precaution to protect your personal data while you are on the Internet. At a minimum, we encourage you to make sure that you are using a secure browser as you surf the Internet. Please refer to the websites of the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada for information on how to protect yourself from identity theft.
By using our Sites, you accept all risks associated with any data transmission, including the risk that your information may be intercepted in transit and agree that we will not be liable for disclosures of your information due to errors in transmission or unauthorized acts of third parties.
We will only retain your personal data for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes for which we collected it, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or reporting requirements. We may retain your personal data for a longer period in the event of a complaint or if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation. To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal and regulatory requirements. In some circumstances we may anonymize your personal data (so that it can no longer be associated with you) for statistical or analytical purposes, in which case we may use this information indefinitely. Copies of personal data may be maintained in our backup systems until those copies are deleted in the ordinary course of business, according to the retention schedule for the backup systems.
Your Privacy Choices
Depending upon where you live, your rights may include:
We do not create consumer profiles or automate decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects concerning a consumer, which means a decision that results in the provision or denial of financial or lending services, housing, insurance, education enrollment or opportunity, criminal justice, employment opportunities, health-care services or access to essential goods or services.
