The type of information that STANDARD CARBON INC may collect from you includes, for example, your name, email address, address, phone number, and other information that you choose to provide. We may also collect personal information for other purposes where we have a legal duty or right to do so, or where STANDARD CARBON INC has a good faith belief that it is necessary to protect the property or rights of STANDARD CARBON INC .
Direct Collection from Individuals. STANDARD CARBON INC only collects personal information about individuals where the individual has knowledge of the data collection and consents thereto. Generally, this means that STANDARD CARBON INC collects personal information directly from the individual to whom it relates, whether via STANDARD CARBON INC ’s website, telephone, fax or in person. Occasionally, STANDARD CARBON INC may collect personal information from third party sources.
Passive Collection of Anonymous Technical Information. Visitors should be aware that anonymous technical information may be collected by STANDARD CARBON INC as a result of a visit to the Website. For example, this information may include the visitor’s IP address, browser type, operating system, domain name, access times and referring website addresses. STANDARD CARBON INC uses this anonymous technical information to track usage patterns for purposes such as improving the operation and content of the Website and compiling aggregate and statistical information. STANDARD CARBON INC will not process this anonymous technical information in ways that may result in revealing the identity of the person or people to whom the data relate. STANDARD CARBON INC reserves the right to disclose such aggregate information to third parties.
Use of “Cookies”. As part of the collection of technical information, STANDARD CARBON INC may use “cookies” on its Website. “Cookies” are small text files placed on your computer that can collect and store a variety of information, including visitor preferences and activities on the Website. Cookies may be temporary or permanent. Permanent cookies are stored indefinitely on a user’s hard drive unless manually deleted, while temporary cookies are automatically deleted from the user’s browser upon logging out of a website. Web browsers typically allow users to disable all permanent and/or temporary cookies, and to delete permanent cookies. Consult your web browser’s “Help” feature to learn more.
Use and Disclosure of Personal Information.
STANDARD CARBON INC uses personal information, as necessary, for the purpose of providing the Services and administering the customer relationship generally, including, without limitation, for the purpose of offering opportunities which STANDARD CARBON INC feels will be of interest to you. You may opt-out of receiving such marketing communications or customized advertising by contacting us at the address below, or, in the case of electronic communications, by using the “unsubscribe” link contained therein. STANDARD CARBON INC may also use personal information for other purposes to the extent authorized or required by law.
In certain instances, STANDARD CARBON INC may also share your personally identifiable information with third party service providers performing functions on our behalf, including, without limitation, vendors that process credit card orders, provide us marketing or promotional assistance, analyze our data, and assist us with customer service. STANDARD CARBON INC has agreements in place with third party service providers which require such service providers to keep your information confidential and secure and which ensure that our service providers may not use or disclose personal information for any purpose other than providing the services on our behalf.
STANDARD CARBON INC does not use personal information for any other purposes, unless it has the consent of the individual to whom the personal information relates.
Your Consent. STANDARD CARBON INC only collects, uses and discloses personal information with the consent of the individual to whom it relates. The consent may be express or implied. There may also be situations where STANDARD CARBON INC ’s collection, use or disclosure of personal information without consent is authorized or required by law. You can withhold your consent to STANDARD CARBON INC ’s collection, use and disclosure of your personal information, or withdraw such consent at any time upon reasonable notice, subject to any legal or contractual requirements. However, if consent is withheld or withdrawn, STANDARD CARBON INC may not be able to fulfill the purpose(s) for which the information was collected, or fulfill any obligations it may owe to you in connection with such purposes.
CASL Compliance. STANDARD CARBON INC has structured its practices to comply with the consent and unsubscribing requirements under Canada’s Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL). Where consent is required by CASL, STANDARD CARBON INC will ensure that you have expressly opted-in or that STANDARD CARBON INC has your implied consent (as defined under CASL) to receive STANDARD CARBON INC ’s communications before they are sent to you. Further, STANDARD CARBON INC will ensure that all communications include a clear means to opt-out of receiving any further STANDARD CARBON INC business and/or marketing messages as required under CASL.
Safeguarding Personal Information.
Security Safeguards. STANDARD CARBON INC has taken reasonable steps to assist in the protection of its customer’s information, including the use of firewall technology and the implementation of reasonable internal security policies and procedures. STANDARD CARBON INC will continue to monitor security issues and will update and improve security when it is reasonable and practical to do so. However, it is important to note that the internet is not a secure method of communication and STANDARD CARBON INC cannot guarantee the privacy or security of customer information submitted through the website or by email over the internet. Despite our use of industry-standard security measures, no security or encryption we provide is invulnerable to attacks of malicious third parties.
Risk of Use. Further, internet software or electronic transmission errors may produce inaccurate or incomplete copies of the content of the Website when downloaded and displayed on any computer. STANDARD CARBON INC does not assume any liability or responsibility whatsoever for computer viruses or other destructive programs received during the electronic transmission of such content of the Website or any websites accessed through links provided therein. Any unprotected email communication over the internet is, as with communication via any other medium (e.g. cellular phones, post office mail), subject to possible interception or loss, and is also subject to possible alteration.
Processing Outside of Canada. Our head office is located in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. In some cases, personal information that we manage may be processed in Canada and may be disclosed, processed and stored outside Canada (including in the United States of America), and therefore may be available to government authorities under lawful orders and laws applicable there. STANDARD CARBON INC has taken appropriate technical, organizational, and legal steps to secure this information.
Breach Procedure. The protection of personal information is of paramount concern to us, and we are prepared to take appropriate and timely steps in the event of any incidents involving personal information in accordance with applicable privacy laws including, without limitation, complying with mandatory breach reporting and record keeping requirements.
Retention. We retain personal information only as long as is reasonable to fulfill the purposes for which the information was collected, or for legal or business purposes.
Access to and Amendment of Personal Information. STANDARD CARBON INC will provide you with access to your personal information in accordance with applicable laws. STANDARD CARBON INC reserves the right to require that any request for access to personal information be made in writing. Generally, there is no cost for a request for access to your personal information. However, STANDARD CARBON INC reserves the right to charge such costs on a case-by-case basis in accordance with applicable laws. You will be notified in advance if such charges apply. Further, STANDARD CARBON INC will correct or amend the personal information in its files where it can be shown that the information is incorrect or incomplete.
