Privacy Policy
 
Earth Day Canada respects your right to privacy, in accordance with Quebec and Canada’s privacy laws.
 
Earth Day Canada may collect personal information about you. This personal information is used exclusively by Earth Day Canada to communicate with you, to provide you with the services, content, or information you have requested or to provide you with information that may be of interest to you. Earth Day Canada will only use personal information for these purposes unless we have your consent.
 
Personal Information about Another Individual
 
If you provide Earth Day Canada with the personal information of another individual, you indicate that you have the authority to do so and/or that you have obtained all necessary consent from that individual to enable us to collect, use, and disclose this personal information for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy.
 
Using Visitor Information
 
To deliver the necessary content (document, newsletters, etc.) and to constantly improve it, we need some information about you. Your name and email address are required to contact you if there is a problem with the delivery of the requested content and also for promotional purposes by Earth Day Canada only. Your consent must be explicitly given to Earth Day Canada so that your name and email address may be used by the latter. The postal code provided by the user in certain forms is used for location purposes by region as part of certain promotional items. If you no longer want to receive our newsletter, promotions, and/or information, simply unsubscribe by clicking on the link provided for this purpose in the monthly mailing.
 
When a visitor accesses the Earth Day Canada Sites, we may use a browser feature called a “cookie” to collect information such as the type of internet browser and operating system that the visitor uses, the domain name of the Sites where the visitor comes from, the date and duration of the visit, the number of visits, the average visitor’s time on our Sites, the pages he or she has consulted and the cumulative number of views. A cookie is a small text file containing a unique identification number that identifies the visitor’s browser (but does not necessarily identify the visitor) for our computers every time someone visits our Sites. We do not know the identity of visitors to our Sites unless they tell us specifically (e.g., by registering for an event or sending us correspondence from the Sites). In addition to the specific purposes described in our Privacy Policy, we may use this information and share it with others with whom we have relationships in order to improve the Sites’s content and functionality and make it easier for visitors to use. Visitors can reset their browser in order to be notified as soon as they receive a cookie or to be able to refuse cookies. However, if they refuse cookies, they may be unable to use some of the features of our Sites.
 
When sending information by email, we may collect certain information such as the date and time you first opened email communications, the number of times you have opened them, the number of clicks per article, the total frequency of clicks on the content of these communications, and a general compilation of related statistics. We may combine and retain any such information for the purpose of managing and improving communications that we send to you by email.
 
Protecting your Confidential Data
 
In order to prevent unauthorized access, we observe strict security measures with respect to the archiving and disclosure of the information you have transmitted to us. Earth Day Canada will take all reasonable means to ensure that all personal information in its possession is protected against loss or theft, unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use, or modification. This includes but is not limited to physical, organizational, and technological means. In general, all of this data is secured and encrypted at all times on the site.
 
As a result, we may ask you again to prove your identity before providing information or modifying it at your request. A request must be made in writing to the following email address: info@jourdelaterre.org.
 
It is understood that the collected data is stored and used in North America by Earth Day Canada. If you do not live in North America, be aware that your personal data is stored inside servers in North America and that you authorize Earth Day Canada to transfer, store, and process your data in Canada, in North America, and possibly in other countries.
 
Transmission of your Details to Third Parties
 
While guaranteeing the utmost confidentiality, Earth Day Canada undertakes not to divulge or market to third parties any information about you, except under the terms of a legal constraint (by testimony, interrogation, request for documents, subpoena, request for investigation, or other similar proceedings pursuant to an order of a competent court, or to comply with any applicable conditions imposed by a government agency or other regulatory authority, or other legal requirements) or after obtaining your consent. It is understood that the Fonds Eco IGA is administered by Earth Day Canada and therefore this entity can not be considered a third party for the purposes hereof.
