In this policy, we describe what personal information we collect; how we use, share and manage it; how you can access, update and/or correct your personal information; the privacy choices available to you; and the specific privacy notices relating to certain programs and services that provide you with more information.
This policy applies to you when you visit our website, sign up to be part of any of our promotion, contests, programs or events, purchase our products or receive our services.
What type of personal information do we collect, and how?
We limit the collection of personal information to what is reasonably required to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected. We collect personal information, as defined in this section, in a variety of ways, including: directly from you, from third parties, through in-store technologies, and when you are interacting with us online. “Personal Information” is any information that identifies you or could be reasonably associated with you and includes, without limitation, your name, email address, home address and phone numbers. Personal Information can be collected directly from you in our store, mail, email, over the telephone or through our website or in any other direct manner or we may receive it from other sources with your consent or if the law requires or permits us to do so. We use “cookies” to collect information about you and your activity across our site. A cookie is a small piece of data that our website stores on your computer, and accesses each time you visit, so we can understand how you use our site. This helps us serve you content based on preferences you have specified.
How do we use personal information?
We use your personal information to provide you with our programs, products and services, to manage our business operations, to communicate offers and information we think might interest you, to generally improve your customer experience with us, and as permitted or required by law.
How do we share personal information?
We may share your personal information within company, with other third parties (companies with which we provide programs, products or services; third party service providers for the purpose of enabling them to provide their services; etc) or as permitted by Canadian law for the purposes described in this policy and in accordance with applicable law. The third parties may have their own privacy policies and terms and conditions, which will govern their use of your personal information. If applicable, you will be informed at the onset, upon signing up for the relevant program/service of the third party arrangement so you can review the privacy policy(ies) that apply. Canadian law permits or sometimes requires the use, sharing or disclosure of personal info without consent in some specific circumstances (ie. When investigating/preventing suspected or actual illegal activities, including but not limited to fraud). If this happens, we will only share the personal information that is reasonably required to fulfill that purpose. We do not sell your personal information to any organization or person; the only exception to this would be if we sell or transfer any part of our business. Other than the purposes listed herein, we may, with your implied or express consent, share or disclose your personal information outside of our company, in accordance with applicable law.

In some cases, your consent may be “implied” i.e. your permission is assumed based on your action or inaction at the point of collection, use or sharing of your personal information. Your consent can be withdrawn at any time, except in limited circumstances, including legal or regulatory requirements or as a result of your contractual obligations with us. If you choose not to provide us with certain personal information or if you withdraw your consent if applicable, we may not be able to offer you the programs, services, events or information that you requested or could be otherwise offered to you.
