Privacy Statement
We have created this privacy statement in order to demonstrate our firm and continuing commitment to the privacy
of personal information provided by those visiting and interacting with this website. We hold the privacy of
your personal information in the highest regard. The following discloses our information gathering and
dissemination practices for this website.
We recognize the importance of protecting your privacy and our policy is designed to assist you in understanding
how we collect, use, and safeguard the personal information you provide to us and to assist you in making informed
decisions when using our site. This policy will be continuously assessed against new technologies, business
practices and our customers' needs.
When you visit this website you may provide us with two types of information: personal information you knowingly
choose to disclose that is collected on an individual basis and website use information collected on an
aggregate basis as you and others browse our website.
When you register for any of our products, services or newsletters you will provide us information about yourself.
If you choose to correspond with us through email, we may retain the content of your email messages together with
your email address and our responses. We provide the same protections for these electronic communications that we
employ in the maintenance of information received by mail and telephone.
Similar to other commercial websites, our website utilizes a standard technology called "cookies"
(see explanation below, "What Are Cookies?") and web server log files to collect information about how our website
is used. Information gathered through cookies and web server logs may include the date and time of visits,
the pages viewed, time spent at our website, and the websites visited just before and just after our website.
Broadly speaking, we use personal information for purposes of administering our business activities, providing
the products and services you requested, to monitor the use of the service, to aid our
marketing and promotional efforts and improve our content and service offerings, to customize our site's content,
layout, and services, and for other lawful purposes. These uses improve our site and better tailor it to meet your needs.
Furthermore, such information may be shared with others on an aggregate basis. Personally identifiable information
or business information will not be shared with parties except as required by law.
A cookie is a very small text document, which often includes an anonymous unique identifier. When you visit a
website, that site's computer asks your computer for permission to store this file in a part of your hard drive
specifically designated for cookies. Each website can send its own cookie to your browser if your browser's
preferences allow it, but (to protect your privacy) your browser only permits a website to access the cookies it
has already sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other sites. Browsers are usually set to accept cookies.
However, if you would prefer not to receive cookies, you may alter the configuration of your browser to refuse
cookies. If you choose to have your browser refuse cookies, it is possible that some areas of our site will not
function as effectively when viewed by the users. A cookie cannot retrieve any other data from your hard drive or
pass on computer viruses.
As you visit and browse our website, the site uses cookies to differentiate you from other users. In some cases,
we also use cookies to prevent you from having to log in more than is necessary for security. Cookies, in
conjunction with our web server's log files, allow us to calculate the aggregate number of people visiting our
website and which parts of the site are most popular. This helps us gather feedback to constantly improve our website
and better serve our customers. Cookies do not allow us to gather any personal information about you and we do not
intentionally store any personal information that your browser provided to us in your cookies.
IP addresses are used by your computer every time you are connected to the Internet. Your IP address is a number
that is used by computers on the network to identify your computer. IP addresses are automatically collected by our
web server as part of demographic and profile data known as “traffic data” so that data (such as the web pages you
request) can be sent to you.
We do not share, sell, lend or lease any of the information that uniquely identify a subscriber (such as email
addresses or personal details) with anyone except to the extent it is necessary to process transactions or provide
services that you have requested.
You may request access to all your personally identifiable information that we collect online and maintain in our
database by emailing us at the usual address.
We may disclose information when legally compelled to do so, in other words, when we, in good faith, believe that
the law requires it or for the protection of our legal rights. We may also disclose account information when we have
reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against
someone who may be violating our Terms of Use or to protect the safety of our users and the Public.
We are not responsible for the practices employed by websites linked to or from our website or the information
or content contained therein. Often links to other websites are provided solely as pointers to information on topics
that may be useful to the users of our website.
Please remember that when you use a link to go from our website to another website, our Privacy Statement is no
longer in effect. Your browsing and interaction on any other website, including websites which have a link on
our website, is subject to that website's own rules and policies. Please read over those rules and policies before
proceeding.
By using our website you consent to our collection and use of your personal information as described in this
Privacy Statement. We reserve the right to amend this privacy policy at any time with or without notice.
Please note that your information will be stored and processed on our computers in Canada. The laws on
holding personal data in Canada may be less stringent than the laws of your Country of residence or
citizenship. To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information,
we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the
information we collect online.
From time-to-time our site may request information from users via surveys or contests. Participation in these surveys
or contests is completely voluntary and the user therefore has a choice whether or not to disclose this information.
Information requested may include contact information (such as name and shipping address), and demographic
information (such as zip code, age level). Contact information will be used to notify the winners and award prizes.
Survey information will be used for purposes of monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction of this site.
Children are not eligible to use our services unsupervised and we ask that children (under the age of 14) do not
submit any personal information to us. If you are a minor, you can use this service only in conjunction with
permission and guidance from your parents or guardians.
In the event that the website (or a substantial portion of its assets) is acquired, your information would be
considered part of those assets, and may be part of those assets that are transferred.
We may change this Privacy Statement from time to time. If/when changes are made to this privacy policy, we will
email users who have given us permission to do so. We will post any changes here, so be sure to check back
periodically. However, please be assured that if the Privacy Statement changes in the future, we will not use the
personal information you have submitted to us under this Privacy Statement in a manner that is materially inconsistent
with this Privacy Statement, without your prior consent.
