Use of Personal Information

By registering with, or providing personal information on, the Site, Users allow us to make their personal information available to our affiliates (which include entities that provide the technical services and infrastructure that power the Services) and other third parties in accordance with the terms of this Privacy Policy, and to otherwise provide marketing offers to such Users. The personal information that you submit to us remains your property, but by submitting such information to us, you grant us and our affiliates the right, subject to applicable municipal, provincial and federal law, to use the personal information for marketing purposes. 

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, we and our affiliates reserve the right to share, sell, rent, lease and/or otherwise distribute any and all personal information with/to any third-party for any and all purposes permitted by this Privacy Policy and applicable law. These third parties may include, but shall not be limited to: (a) providers of direct marketing services and applications; (b) e-mail marketers, telemarketers, SMS text-based marketers and/or direct marketers (where and to the extent permitted by applicable law); and (c) third party vendors who support and/or facilitate the performance of the Site and/or Services.

We or our affiliates may also use your personal information for any purpose related to the operation of the Site and/or Services. We may disclose personal information to third-party agents and independent contractors that help us create and/or operate the Site and/or Services.  You agree that we or our affiliates may contact you at any time with updates and/or any other information that we may deem appropriate for you to receive in connection with your continued use of the Site and/or Services. In addition, if you identify yourself to us or our affiliates by sending an e-mail with questions or comments, such information (including personal information) may be used to respond to your questions or comments, and your questions or comments may be filed for future reference.  We may also supplement the information that we collect with information from other sources to assist us in evaluating and improving the Site and Services, and to determine your preferences so that we can tailor the Site and Services to your needs.

We or our affiliates may also use contact information from your personal information to send you information about and/or contact you regarding: (i) the Site and Services; (ii) our or our affiliates’ other products, services and offerings; and (iii) the offerings of third parties.   Please keep in mind, though, that we do not control, and are not responsible for, the practices of our third-party advertisers or those of affiliates.  If you wish to stop receiving future communications from us and/or third party advertisers, or if you wish to prevent the transfer and/or sale of your personal information to third parties (subject to restrictions contained in applicable municipal, provincial and federal law), please see the Opt-Out/Unsubscribe section below.

By submitting your personal information through the Site, you agree to receive e-mail marketing from us, our affiliates, our third-party advertisers, and third-party advertisers related to our affiliates. We or our agents may use third party service providers to maintain the Site and Services. The information that you submit through the Site may be collected by us, affiliates, or such third party service providers. You are encouraged to review the privacy policies on any such third party service provider’s Site(s).

In addition, where you submit a mobile telephone number on the Site, if ever, you agree to receive mobile marketing including, but not limited to, SMS text-message based marketing, from us, affiliates, and from our and our affiliates’ third party advertisers and marketers (where, and to the extent that, such marketing is permitted by applicable law).  As such, notwithstanding that your mobile telephone number may be listed on any municipal, provincial and/or federal Do-Not-Call registries, we, and our affiliates, retain the right to contact you via SMS text-message based marketing in accordance with applicable municipal, provincial and federal laws. Further, you agree that we and our affiliates reserve the right to share, sell, rent, lease and/or otherwise distribute your mobile telephone and other mobile data with/to any third-party for any and all non-marketing uses permitted by this Privacy Policy and applicable law. 

We reserve the right to release current or past personal information: (i) in the event that we believe that the Site and/or Services are being or have been used in violation of our terms of use or to commit unlawful acts; (ii) if the information is subpoenaed; or (iii) if we are sold, merged or acquired. Moreover, you hereby consent to the disclosure of any record or communication to any third-party when we, in our sole discretion, determine the disclosure to be appropriate. Users should also be aware that courts of equity might have the authority under certain circumstances to permit personal information to be shared or transferred to third parties without permission.

Some or all of the personal information we collect may be stored or processed on servers located outside your jurisdiction of residence, whose data protection laws may differ from the jurisdiction in which you live. As a result, this information may be subject to access requests from governments, courts or law enforcement agencies in those jurisdictions according to laws in those jurisdictions. Subject to applicable laws in such other jurisdictions, we will use reasonable efforts to ensure that appropriate protections are in place to require the data processor in that jurisdiction to maintain protections on the personal information that are equivalent to those that apply in the jurisdiction in which you live.

Security

Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information that you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk.

However, access to your information is strictly limited, and not accessible to the public. Only employees who need access to the information are granted access to personal information. In compliance with applicable municipal, provincial and federal laws, we shall notify you and any applicable regulatory agencies in the event that we learn of an information security breach with respect to your personal information.
