If your location is in the EU or UK, this section is relevant to you.

We must clarify the legitimate legal grounds we use to handle your personal data, as mandated by the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the UK GDPR. As such, we may rely on the following legal bases to process your personal information:

• If gathering and utilizing information with consent could potentially impact its availability or accuracy, and if this collection is essential for examining a breach of an agreement or a violation of Canadian or provincial laws, it is deemed reasonable.
• If disclosure is necessary to comply with a subpoena, warrant, court order, or the court rules for producing records.
• If an individual produces information during their employment, business, or professional activities, and if collecting this information serves the original purposes for its production.

Standard Contractual Clauses of the European Commission:

We have implemented measures to protect your personal information, including the use of Standard Contractual Clauses of the European Commission for transfers of personal information between our group companies and between our third-party providers and us.

We will not retain your personal information for longer than the duration of your account with us.

When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymize such information, or, if this is not possible (for example, because your data is in backup archives), then we will securely store your personal information and isolate it from any further processing until deletion is possible.

We have implemented appropriate and reasonable technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process.

12. Controls for do-not-track features

Most web browsers, along with some mobile operating systems and apps, offer a Do-Not-Track (DNT) option that you can use to indicate your preference against having your online browsing activities monitored and collected. Currently, there is no agreed-upon standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals.

If a future standard for online tracking requires our compliance, we will update you with a revised privacy notice.
