Protecting Your Privacy is Important to us
We believe that all personal information is to be held in the strictest of confidence; we are committed to protecting your privacy. We store our files and our electronic documents in a secured environment.
Our Policy is: "To assist the client in a fast and professional manner, without sacrificing the safety and confidentiality of their personal information."
Our employees understand the importance of the policies and procedures and follow them carefully. This is to inform you of our policies regarding the security, collection, use, and sharing of nonpublic personal information.
Our privacy policy was created to adhere to Canada's Federal Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) formerly referred to as Bill C-6. The Act has two primary objectives:
- to establish rules that govern the collection, use and disclosure of personal information by private sector organizations; and
- to acknowledge the validity and legality of electronic documents
For more information regarding this legislation, please visit the official Web site of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada at http://www.privcom.gc.ca.
