Privacy Policy

As of January 1, 2004, Federal legislation – the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (the Act) – came into effect, applying to all businesses and companies in Canada. The Act establishes new rules for privacy. The rules recognize the rights of individuals to control the use of their personal information and impose obligations on organizations to protect personal information in a manner that a reasonable person would consider appropriate in the circumstances. Under the Act, information is defined as personal information if it can be attributable to a specific individual.

We are committed to ensuring our clients’ privacy and to abide by the Ten Privacy Principles of the Act.

Accountability
We are responsible for personal information under our control. We have designated a Privacy Officer who is responsible for monitoring our ongoing compliance with the Privacy Principles.

We will use your personal information only for the purposes for which the information was collected. We will ask for and obtain verbal or written proof of your expressed consent before using it for any other purposes.
Consent

Limiting Use, Disclosure and Retention Personal Information
Your personal information may only be used or disclosed for the purposes for which it was collected, other purposes you consent to, or as required or permitted by law.
