    3) WILL YOUR INFORMATION BE SHARED WITH ANYONE?

     

    We only share and disclose your information in the following situations:

    • Compliance with Laws. We may disclose your information where we are legally required to do so in order to comply with applicable law, governmental requests, a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process, such as in response to a court order or subpoena (including in response to public authorities to meet national security or law enforcement requirements).
    • Vital Interests in Legal Rights. We may disclose your information where we believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent, or act regarding potential violations of or policies, suspect fraud, situations involving potential threats to the safety of any person and illegal activities, or as evidence in litigation in which we are involved.
    • Vendors, Consultants, and other Third-Party Service Providers. We may share your data with third party vendors, service providers, contractors or agents who perform services for us or on our behalf and require access to such information to do that work. Examples include: data analysis, email delivery, hosting services, customer service and marketing efforts.  We may allow selected third parties to use tracking technology on our website or applications, which will enable them to collect data about how you interact with them over time.  This information may be used to, among other things, analyze and track data, determine the popularity of certain content and services and better understand online activity. Unless described in this Privacy Policy, we do not share, sell, rent or trade any of your information with third parties for their promotional purposes.
    • Business Transfers. We may share or transfer your information in connection with, or during negotiations of, any merger, sale of company assets, financing, or acquisition of all or a portion of our business not another company.
    • Business Partners. We may share your information with our business partners to offer you certain products, services and promotions.
    • Payment Processing. We may share your information as necessary to obtain and maintain your credit history, provide credit references, process payments, and otherwise manage our accounts and fulfill our legal and regulatory requirements.
    • With your consent. We may disclose your personal information for any other purpose with your consent.

    Some Business Partners are located outside of Canada, including in the United States. Likewise, some Texada facilities may also be located outside of Canada. As a result, your Personal Information may be collected, processed and stored in another jurisdiction. Reasonable contractual and other measures we may take to protect your Personal Information while processed or handled by these Business Partners are subject to legal requirements applicable to our Business Partners; for example, lawful requirements to disclose Personal Information to government authorities in certain circumstances.

      4) HOW LONG DO WE KEEP YOUR INFORMATION?  

       

      Texada takes reasonable steps to protect your Personal Information from misuse, interference and loss, as well as unauthorized access, modification or disclosure. The ways we do this include:

      • Using encryption when collecting or transferring sensitive information, such as credit card details;
      • Limiting physical access to the premises where data is stored;
      • Limiting access to the information we collect about you; and
      • Ensuring that we and our Business Partners have appropriate security safeguards to keep personal information secure.
