This exchange of information is necessary only to meet the technological requirements of Internet browsing and is used for statistical purposes. The information exchanged consists of:

Personal information

Personal information is information that relates to a natural person and allows that person to be identified, for example, date of birth, home address, social insurance number, driver's license number, health insurance number and age.

Personal information is confidential and cannot be disclosed without the authorization of the person concerned, except for certain exceptions provided for in the Access to Information Act.

Your provision of personal information to Dérive ecobrand means that you accept and consent to our collection, use and disclosure of your personal information in accordance with our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with these terms, do not provide us with any personal information. However, while the provision of certain personal information is optional, certain services can only be offered if you provide us with personal information and we may not be able to offer you certain services if you choose not to provide us with the required personal information.

Consent may be given in a number of ways, including: (a) expressly by signing a document, agreeing by electronic means or verbally; or (b) implicitly by voluntarily providing personal information.

There may be times when you have provided personal information for a specific purpose and Dérive ecobrand subsequently needs to use that information for a different purpose. In such circumstances, Dérive ecobrand will seek your consent to use the information for the new purpose, unless the law permits or requires us to use the information for the new purpose.

You have the right to revoke your consent to the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information at any time. However, revoking your consent may prevent us from providing you with services or products; in such circumstances, we will discuss with you why we need your personal information and how revoking your consent affects our ability to provide you with our services or products.

Transmission of personal or confidential information

If you send us personal information by filling out an online form or by any other means, we will only use the information we need to follow up on your request.

We remind you that an email sent to a website is not systematically secure. Only communications or transactions carried out with a data encryption system are secure. Therefore, we recommend that you do not use your email software to send us personal information.

The personal information transmitted is not disclosed to any other government agency unless such disclosure is required by law. The information transmitted is in no way used to establish a user profile and is not disclosed to any private organization.

Only authorized persons within our organization have access to this information and only when it is necessary to perform their duties. Personal information held by Dérive ecobrand is used only for the purposes for which it was collected. It is securely archived or destroyed when no longer necessary.
