Cookies are pieces of information that a website transfers to your hard drive to store and sometimes track information about you. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but if you prefer, you can change your browser to prevent that. However, you may not be able to take full advantage of our Website if you do so. Cookies are specific to the server that created them and cannot be accessed by other servers, which means they cannot be used to track your movements around the web. Although they do identify a user’s computer, cookies do not personally identify user accounts or passwords.

We use cookies for the following reasons:

To estimate our audience size and patterns;
To ensure that you are not asked to register twice (if applicable);
To control how often visitors see similar ads (if applicable); and
To improve and update our Website.

TECHNATION Canada will not share, sell or rent your Personal Information to third parties. Personal Information provided by you to such third parties is subject to their own privacy policies.

Residents of the European Economic Area (“EEA”) and the UK

TECHNATION Canada does not specifically market the Website to residents of the EEA or UK. If the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) is deemed to apply to TECHNATION Canada’s practices, the following terms shall apply:

Transfers of any personal data (as that term is defined under the GDPR) of residents of the EEA are made in accordance with permitted legal measures under applicable laws. Whenever we transfer personal data out of the EEA, we ensure a similar degree of protection by at least one of the following safeguards:

The country to which the personal data is being sent has been deemed to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data by the European Commission.
Where we use certain service providers, we may use specific contracts approved by the European Commission which give personal data the same protection it has in the EEA.
Where we use providers based in the U.S., we may transfer personal data to them which requires them to provide similar protection to personal data shared between the EEA and the U.S.
The legal grounds under which we process personal data of EEA residents are:
- with consent;
- to perform the services you have requested from us or, upon your request, to take the steps necessary to provide you with such services; or
- in the furtherance of our legitimate interests in maintaining business relationships and communicating with you as a business contact, about our activities and Website.

Further, individuals located in the EEA have certain rights under European law (including under the GDPR) with respect to personal data, including the right to request access to, obtain, correct, amend, delete, or limit the use of your personal data. Individuals who are located in the EEA and who wish to exercise these rights, should contact us using the contact information noted below. If the inquiry relates to personal data collected by a third party, such as one of our clients, you should contact such third party.

Individuals also have the right to make complaints to regulatory authorities in respect of our privacy practices.

We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your Personal Data (or to exercise any of your other rights). This is a security measure to ensure that Personal Data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it.

You will not have to pay a fee to access your Personal Data (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive, or excessive. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.

California Residents

This section provides additional details about the Personal Information we collect about California consumers and the rights afforded to them under the California Consumer Privacy Act (the “CCPA”).

Subject to certain limitations, the CCPA provides California consumers the right to request to know more details about the categories or specific pieces of Personal Information we collect (including how we use and disclose this Personal Information), to delete their Personal Information, to opt out of any “sales” of Personal Information that may be occurring, and to not be discriminated against for exercising these rights.

California consumers may make a request pursuant to their rights under the CCPA by contacting us at privacyofficer@technationcanada.ca. We will verify your request using the information associated with your account, if available, including email address. Government identification may be required. Consumers can also designate an authorized agent to exercise these rights on their behalf.

Security

TECHNATION Canada places a great importance on the security of all information associated with our customers. We have security measures in place to attempt to protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of Website user data under our control. Our security and privacy policies are periodically reviewed and enhanced as necessary and only authorised personnel have access to user information. While we cannot ensure or guarantee that loss, misuse or alteration of data will not occur, we use our best efforts to prevent this.

Sub-processors

To support us in maintaining the Website, we engage third-party service providers as sub-processors.

This section identifies our sub-processors, describes where they are located, lists the services they provide to us and identifies the type of Personal Information processed.

Our business needs may change from time to time and we will periodically update this list to provide notice of additions and removals to our list of sub-processors.
