1. Our Privacy Commitment

At Northwind Canada Inc. ("Northwind"), we are committed to protecting the privacy of your personal information. As part of this commitment, we have developed this Privacy Policy, which outlines the principles and guidelines by which Northwind operates to protect the personal information we collect, use, disclose or otherwise manage in the course of our operations. Our policy and practices have been put in place in order to comply with the federal Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act ("PIPEDA") and any other applicable law.

2. What personal information does Northwind collect?

In the course of conducting business with you, Northwind collects both personal and non- personal information. Personal information is any information that identifies you, or by which your identity could be deduced, including, without limitation, your name, e-mail address, home address, telephone number, age, marital status, gender, income, date of birth, credit card number, and any other information that identifies who you are or would allow someone to contact you. In general, personal information does not include publicly available information, such as business addresses and telephone numbers that are listed in a public directory or made available through directory assistance.

3. Identifying Purposes for Collection of Personal Information

1. Northwind will make a reasonable effort to specify the identified purposes, either orally or in writing, for which it collects, uses, or discloses your personal information at the time of collection or after collection but before use.

2. If your personal information is to be used for a purpose not previously identified, Northwind will identify and document this purpose prior to such use and will provide you with an opportunity to opt out of this activity. Northwind will state the identified purposes in such a manner that you can reasonably understand how the information will be used and disclosed.

4. Consent

1. The cornerstone to protecting your privacy is consent. We will only collect, use, and disclose your personal information with your consent except where otherwise permitted or required by law. Depending on the type of personal information collected from you, and the purpose for which the information is collected, your consent may be express or implied. Express consent can be granted verbally, in writing, in person, electronically, or by telephone. Your consent is implied if we ask you to provide personal information with a stated purpose.

2. By providing Northwind with your personal information, you agree and consent that we may collect, use and disclose your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. If you provide us with the personal information of another individual, you represent that you have all necessary authority and/or have obtained all necessary consents from such individual to enable us to collect, use and disclose such personal information for the purposes set forth in this Privacy Policy.

5. Withdrawing Consent

You may withdraw your consent at any time, subject to legal or contractual restrictions and reasonable notice. Please note, however, that withdrawing your consent may affect our ability to provide you with the services, products or information that may be of value to you. To withdraw your consent, simply contact us at the e-mail address or address listed in Section 13 below.

6. Accuracy

1. Northwind will use its best efforts to ensure that personal information is kept as accurate, complete, and up-to-date as is necessary and possible for the purposes for which it is to be used. Northwind will provide individuals with reasonable access to their personal information and will update or correct any deficiency in personal information held by it if the individual concerned provides Northwind with particulars of any required updating or correction. (There are limited exceptions to this which are set out in the PIPEDA legislation.)

2. Northwind will rely exclusively on the representations made by you in determining the completeness, accuracy, and timeliness of the personal information and will have no further obligation to seek independent verification of any personal information supplied by you to Northwind.

7. Security Safeguards

1. Northwind strives to ensure that its security measures will protect personal information against such risks as loss or theft, unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use, modification or destruction, regardless of the format in which the information is held. Such measures will vary depending on the sensitivity, amount, format, nature and storage of the information and will involve, as applicable, physical, administrative, technological, as well as electronic and online security measures. More specifically, personal information collected for the purpose of placing an order with Northwind will be transmitted through a secure webpage (https).

2. Northwind assumes no liability if your personal information is stolen, intercepted, altered, misused or otherwise interfered with by a third party.

3. All employees of Northwind with access to personal information are required, as a condition of their employment, to keep such information confidential.

Personal Information will be retained only for as long as is required or appropriate to fulfill the identified purpose.

2. Northwind will record any new purpose for which it has obtained an individual's consent to use, retain or disclose information.

11. Access to Personal Information

1. Northwind will respond to any requests for access to information within thirty (30) days of your inquiry. We will assist any individual who informs us that they require assistance in preparing a request. We will not, however, respond to frivolous or vexatious requests for access to information. At the time of your request, we will need specific information from you in order to verify your identity before we can provide you with the personal information we hold. We will advise you whether or not we hold your information, and will disclose that information along with particulars with respect to its source, unless such disclosure is prohibited by law.

2. While our response will typically be provided at no cost to the individual, depending on the nature of the request and the amount of information involved, Northwind reserves the right to impose a cost. In such circumstances, we will inform the individual of the approximate cost to provide the response and proceed upon payment by the individual of the cost. Requested information will be provided or made available to the individual in a form that is clear and understandable.

3. In providing an account of third parties to whom Northwind may have disclosed personal information about an individual, we will attempt to be as specific as possible. If it is not possible to provide a list of the organizations to whom Northwind actually disclosed personal information, we will provide a list of organizations to whom such information may have been disclosed.

4. If an individual successfully demonstrates the inaccuracy or incompleteness of personal information, Northwind will amend the information as required. If a challenge is not resolved to the satisfaction of the complainant, we will record the substance of the unresolved challenge. Where appropriate, the amended information or the existence of the unresolved challenge, as the case may be, will be transmitted to third parties having access to the information in question.

5. In certain circumstances, Northwind may be unable to provide access to some or all of the information it holds about an individual. Such circumstances include: (i) if disclosure would reveal confidential commercial information; (ii) if the information is protected by solicitor-client privilege; (iii) if the information was generated in the course of a formal dispute resolution process; or (iv) if the information was collected in relation to the investigation of a breach of an agreement or a contravention of a federal or provincial law. Where permitted, the reasons for denying access to the personal information will be provided to the individual upon request.

12. Will this Privacy Policy change?

This Privacy Policy may be updated and revised from time to time. All changes to our Privacy Policy will be posted on this website. Whenever we update this Privacy Policy, we will change the date to reflect the last date of revision.
