| Defining Personal Information | |
|
Personal information is any information that can be used to distinguish,
identify, or contact a specific individual. This information can include
an individual's opinions and beliefs, as well as facts about, or related
to, the individual. Exceptions: business contact information, and
certain publicly available information, such as names, addresses and
telephone numbers as published in telephone directories, are not considered
personal information. Where an individual uses his or her home contact information as business contact information as well, we consider that the contact information provided is business contact information, and is not therefore subject to protection as personal information. |
|
| Privacy Practices | |
| Personal information gathered by our organization is kept in confidence. Our personnel are authorized to access personal information based only on their need to deal with the information for the reason(s) for which it was obtained. Safeguards are in place to ensure that the information is not disclosed or shared more widely than is necessary to achieve the purpose for which it was gathered. We also take measures to ensure the integrity of this information is maintained and to prevent its being lost or destroyed. | |
