  • for other purposes with your consent or as permitted or required by law.

We may also exchange personal information with our affiliates as necessary for the purposes described above.

The following are examples of when we may use your Information:

  • We may disclose Information to our affiliates for internal audit, management, billing or administrative purposes including defending and bringing legal actions.

How We Protect Your Information Across Borders

We may transfer Information to outside agents or service providers (including our affiliates acting in this capacity) that perform services on our behalf, for example mailing, billing, marketing, analytics, information technology and/or data hosting or processing services or similar services, or otherwise to collect, use, disclose, store or process Information on our behalf for the purposes described in this Policy.  Some of these service providers may be located outside of Canada, including in the United States, and as a result your Information may be processed and stored on servers outside of Canada for the purposes described in this Policy. 

Reasonable contractual and other measures we may take to protect your Information while processed, stored or handled by these service providers are subject to applicable Canadian and foreign legal requirements, including lawful requirements to disclose personal information to government and national security authorities in certain circumstances.

As described above, you may be able to set your browser to decline cookies. If you decline cookies you may still receive online advertising; however, it may be less personalized.  Some advertising networks participate in industry programs that include web pages to visit to opt out.
