II. The Principles


1. Accountability for Personal Information
We are responsible for maintaining and protecting your personal information. The information we collect from clients, business partners or website visitors will differ from employee information. As used in this policy, “personal information” means information about an identifiable individual, such as; age, home address, home telephone number, birth date, personal email address, health card number and relevant health information. In general, personal information does not, for example, include the name, title, business address, business email, and business telephone or fax number of an employee or an organization.
We have appointed a privacy officer to ensure that our organization continues to maintain appropriate security with respect to your personal information.

  • Information is collected voluntarily from you and may also be obtained through a third party. An example of information being collected from a third party would be any relevant medical information provided from a physician or other health care professional.

3. Consent
We will ensure that information is only gained with your consent and that you have knowledge of the purpose and use of the information which you provide. In certain circumstances, consent is sought after the information has already been collected but before use. You may withdraw all or part of your consent for us to use your personal information within certain legal restrictions.

We will limit the information we collect to that which is necessary for the purposes identified.

  • we do not share your personal information with outside parties, except as identified and with written consent
  • we will retain your information only as long as it is necessary to fulfill the identified purpose, or as required by law. 

 6. Accuracy
Regardless of how your personal information is collected we will do our best to ensure it is accurate, complete and up to date. It is important that you let us know, through your Health Care Professional, or directly, of any changes to this information.

7. Safeguards
