As is true of most websites, we automatically gather information about your computer such as your IP address, browser type, referring/exit pages, and operating system. We use this information to:
You may choose to stop receiving our newsletter or marketing emails by clicking on the unsubscribe link at the bottom of any marketing email. You can also contact us using the form on our website at www.uremit.ca.
If you provide us personal information about others, or if others give us your information, we will only use that information for the specific reason for which it was provided to us.
We are bound by the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act 2000 (the 'Act'), which requires that we protect your information and inform you about how we handle your personal information.
We will share your personal information with third parties only in the ways that are described in this privacy statement. We do not sell your personal information to third parties.
We may disclose your personal information:
Our shopping cart is hosted by our e-commerce solutions provider. They host our ordering system and collect your billing information directly from you for the purpose of processing your order. This company does not use this information for any other purpose.
We may use cookies, for example, to keep track of your preferences and profile information. Cookies are also used to collect general usage and volume statistical information that does not include personal information.
Our web pages contain electronic images known as Web beacons (sometimes called single-pixel gifs) and are used along with cookies to compile aggregated statistics to analyze how our site is used and may be used in some of our emails to let us know which emails and links have been opened by recipients. This allows us to gauge the effectiveness of our customer communications and marketing campaigns.
We use a third party to gather information about how you and others use our website. For example, we will know how many users access a specific page and which links they clicked on. We use this aggregated information to understand and optimize how our site is used.
Our site may include links to other websites whose privacy practices may differ from those of U Remit. If you submit personal information to any of those sites, your information is governed by their privacy statements. We encourage you to carefully read the privacy statement of any website you visit.
When we collect personal information directly from you, we follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure, however. Therefore we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
In order to make a purchase from us, you must use our provider to finalize and pay for your order. Its privacy statement and security practices will also apply to your information. We encourage you to read that privacy statement before providing your information.
We will retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you services. If you wish to cancel your account or request that we no longer use your information to provide you services contact us using our website form. We will retain and use your information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.
We may update this privacy statement to reflect changes to our information practices. If we make any material changes we will notify you by email (sent to the e-mail address specified in your account) or by means of a notice on this site prior to the change becoming effective. We encourage you to periodically review this page for the latest information on our privacy practices.
Due to the international nature of our business, we may need to transfer your personal information to other U REMIT entities, or to other third parties as required. For this reason, we may transfer your personal information to other countries that may have different laws and data protection compliance requirements to those that apply in the country in which you are located.
Where recipients are located outside Canada we ensure that the information will be protected by:
We also ensure that our data protection and information security controls applying to your personal information in Canada continue to apply in the hands of our affiliates or contracted service providers located overseas.
Subject to applicable law, you may have a number of rights regarding our processing of your relevant personal information, including:
We may require proof of your identity before we can give effect to these rights. You should also be aware that some of these rights are qualified and not absolute; therefore exemptions or limitations may apply.
You can contact us at info@uremit.ca if you want to enforce any of these rights. We will comply with our legal obligations as regards your rights as a data subject.
Any request for access to your personal information must be in writing and we will endeavour to respond within a reasonable period. Generally, this will be within 30 days from the date of your request. We may extend this period if the circumstances justify an extension. We reserve the right to charge a reasonable fee (reflecting the costs of providing the information) or to refuse to respond where requests are manifestly unfounded or excessive.
We take every reasonable step to ensure that your personal information is only retained for as long as it is required for the purposes set out in this Policy. Therefore, we will only keep the information we collect about you for as long as required for the purposes set out above, or as required to comply with any legal or regulatory obligations to which we are subject.
The period for which we will retain information about you will vary depending on the type of information and the purposes that we use it for. In general, unless applicable law requires a longer retention period, we will keep our records for as long as you are our customer and for 6 years after the end of your relationship with us.
