  • Withdrawing Consent. Where we have relied on your consent to use your personal information, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time by contacting us as noted below. In addition, all our marketing email messages contain the ability to automatically “opt-out” or unsubscribe from our mailing lists and marketing messages.
  • Access and Portability. You have the right to request a record of the personal information that we have collected about you and to ask that the information be provided in a structured, used electronic format (where applicable and technically feasible). There may be some cases where we cannot provide you with certain information about you if it would mean disclosure of personal information of another person or other confidential information, or if it would compromise our security systems. If you require access to your personal information, please Contact Us. We will respond to you within thirty (30) days of receiving your request. We may charge a fee where permitted by applicable law.
  • Restriction and Objection. In certain limited circumstances, individuals in the EU may request that we restrict our use of their personal information and, where we rely on legitimate interests as the legal basis for using your personal information, you have the right to object to such use. In these cases, we can be required to no longer use your personal information; however, this may mean that certain of our Services cannot be made available to you. If you wish to exercise your right to restrict or object, please Contact Us.
  • Complaints. You have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (ie, the independent public authority responsible for monitoring data protection laws in your country). You may also contact the Information and Privacy Commissioner of British Columbia (for British Columbia matters) (http://www.oipc.bc.ca/) or the Privacy Commissioner of Canada (for international matters and inter-provincial matters) (http://www.priv.gc.ca/).
