We may update our privacy policy at any time. The updated privacy policy will be posted on the Website and you may not receive any additional notification. We recommend that you check the Website often to review the current version of this privacy policy. By visiting the Website or purchasing any products through the Website following any changes to the privacy policy you acknowledge and agree to the updated version of the privacy policy. This privacy policy is effective as of the date set out below.
1) What personal information do we collect about you?
We collect and store from all visitors to our Website, whether they actively provide us with information or merely browse the Website, the internet protocol (IP) address of the computer they are using, the browser software they use and their operating system, the date and time they access our Website, the internet address of the website from which they linked directly to our Website, and other similar information. We use this type of information to track Website usage, to measure the number of visitors to the different sections of our Website and to help us make our Website more useful.
Like most internet websites, we use "cookies," small files that websites use to store information on your computer. For example, the contents of your entry for a quiz on our Website are temporarily stored in cookies on your computer. The cookies that we use are removed when you shut down your web browser and cannot be seen by any other website. We may also use cookies to track users as they travel through our Website - for instance, we might use cookies to count the total number of unique users who are accessing the Website over a particular period of time.
2) What do we do with the information we collect?
We use personal information to provide you with the services and goods you have requested. Our agents may contact you about our products and services only if you have opted in to receive such communications.
We may perform statistical analyses of user behavior (for example, by analyzing the Website usage data gathered passively from all users) in order to measure relative consumer interest in the various areas of our Website. These analyses assist us in our product development efforts.
We may also use personal information for other purposes with your consent or as permitted or required by law.
3) With whom do we share the information we collect?
We share personal information with companies who are acting as our agents or service providers, including affiliates acting in this capacity, (collectively, “agents”) as long as they agree to use the information for the legitimate business purposes specified by Alberta Vacuum Experts. Some of these agents may be located outside of Canada – for example customer service agents, service agents we use to service products, data hosting, data processing and order processing. As a result your personal information may be transferred to, or processed in, a country outside of Canada where local laws may permit foreign government and national security authorities to access your personal information in certain circumstances. We may share your personal information as necessary to process payments. We may use and disclose personal information to third parties in connection with the proposed or actual financing, securitization, insuring, sale, assignment or other disposal of all or part of Alberta Vacuum Experts or our business or assets, for the purposes of evaluating and/or performing the proposed transaction. Assignees or successors of Alberta Vacuum Experts or our business or assets may use and disclose your personal information for similar purposes as those described in this privacy policy. We will also share personal information in other circumstances if you have given us permission to do so. Finally, we will share your personal information if permitted or required by law, including in response to legal processes, such as a court order or subpoena, or to comply with other federal, provincial or local laws.
4) Links to third party websites
As a service to you, we may provide links to websites operated and controlled by third parties. Those third parties have their own information collection practices. We are not responsible for their information collection practices or for the content of their sites. We encourage you to review carefully the privacy policies of all websites, including those websites which can be accessed from this site.
5) What kind of security is used to protect your information?
We use reasonable physical, organizational and technical security measures to protect the personal information in our custody or control from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. Our authorized employees, representatives and agents will have access to your personal information as necessary to perform their job functions.
