COLLECTION OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

PERSONAL INFORMATION YOU PROVIDE

In the course of visiting and using the Website, you may provide information to us voluntarily. For example, when you complete the “Contact Us” form for general inquiries on the Website, or when you e-mail us for information about Beedie. We collect the personal information to provide you with the information, updates or service that you have requested.

ACTUALLY GATHERED PERSONAL INFORMATION

We automatically collect certain non-personally identifiable information from visitors to the Website.

  • the web browser and operating system you are using;
  • the date and time of your visit;
  • the sections of the Website you visit, as well as the pages read and the images viewed;
  • certain content that you download from the Website;
  • if you were on another website before visiting the Website and if that website referred you to our Website, the URL (web address) of that previous website; and
  • the Internet Protocol (IP) address of your Internet Service Provider.

We do not link any of the above information with information that is personally identifiable to you. We collect this data in an aggregate format for a number of reasons, including to understand the traffic on our Website, how it is used, and how we can improve it. For example, the information about our visitors’ browsers tells us what kind of browsers we need to support. Other information lets us know how many visitors come to our site and what sections are the most popular. We do not share this aggregate data with third parties except for the possible use of web analytics companies as described below.
Beedie uses a third party analytics company, Google Analytics, to track and analyse your use of the Website and to improve users’ online experience. Web analytics tools tag web pages to capture a limited amount of data (including the IP address of the computer, device or network being used to access the pages). This data is used for aggregate reporting purposes. None of this data is used by Beedie or its service providers to identify you. Google may use cookies and other tracking technologies to perform its services. To learn more about Google’s privacy practices, please see the Google Privacy Policy.
Like most websites, our Website uses “cookies”. A cookie is a commonly used piece of software that tracks user activity on the Website and is capable of enhancing your visit to the site. Cookies enable our Website to save and retrieve information that you enter (for example, user language preference). Cookies may remain on your computer after you leave the Website (until the cookie expires or is deleted by you). You can disable cookies by adjusting the settings on your internet browser, however, disabling cookies may affect your ability to access some pages on the Website.

USE OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

Personal information will only be used to fulfill the purpose for which it was originally collected, or for a use consistent with that purpose, unless you expressly consent otherwise. Beedie may use the personal information that it collects for the following purposes:

  • To contact and correspond with you regarding your use of the Website;
  • To send you information about Beedie’s services, including updates about our programs, news about our programs, announcements, event invitations, and other information that we think may interest you,
  • To respond to specific requests and inquiries from you, including to provide you with services that you request such as publications, program updates, application inquiries and events information;
  • To process suggestions and comments provided by you;
  • To improve our Website services;
  • To administer our Website and protect the security of the Website when necessary;
  • To facilitate such other services and activities, as we may identify at the time;
  • To investigate a breach of the terms of use of the Website; and
  • To meet legal and regulatory requirements.
DISCLOSURE OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

Beedie may disclose certain personal information to third party service providers (including affiliates of Beedie acting in that capacity), to carry out work on behalf of Beedie. Currently, Beedie uses third party service providers to provide website server hosting, data management and storage solutions, and for sending out electronic communications. With the exception of our third party service providers, Beedie will only share your personal information outside Beedie with your consent, or where we use it to provide you with information or services that you request such as scholarship information (in which case, we will consider you to have given implied consent).

The third party service providers will have access to personal information needed to perform their functions, but are only provided the limited amount of information required to perform their services. When Beedie uses third party service providers, it requires the providers to protect your personal information in accordance with the law and with the same or more stringent security and privacy standards than Beedie. Any such disclosure of your personal information by Beedie to a third party service provider will be conditional upon the information being used solely for the purpose for which it has been disclosed.

Beedie Capital uses HubSpot, a customer relationship platform, for data storage solutions. Beedie Capital uses HubSpot to store e-mail addresses. HubSpot has access to personal information needed to perform its data storage function, but is only provided the limited amount of information required to do so. All information supplied to HubSpot by Beedie Capital is transmitted using a secure server and encrypted. HubSpot is a service located outside of Canada, which means that your personal information may be subject to being stored and accessed pursuant to the laws of the United States of America. If you have any questions about Beedie’s policies and practices with respect to service providers outside of Canada, including its collection, use, disclosure, and storage of personal information, you can contact the Beedie Privacy Officer at the contact information listed at the end of this Policy.

Beedie may also disclose your personal information where authorized or required by law. For example, we may disclose your personal information to comply with a subpoena, in response to a law enforcement body with the lawful authority to obtain the information, pursuant to an investigation into the breach of a law, or to our legal counsel.

PROTECTION OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

Beedie takes reasonable steps to protect your personal information. We use security arrangements to protect against unauthorized access, collection, use, disclosure, and disposal, in a manner appropriate to the sensitivity of the information.
The Website includes links to external websites. Once you leave the Website, this Policy does not apply. Beedie is not responsible for the privacy practices, collection of personal information, or content of external websites. You should take steps to protect against authorized access to your account by, for example, choosing a robust password and keeping your login ID and password private.

RETENTION OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

Information collected by Beedie is maintained in accordance with applicable privacy legislation and Beedie’s retention schedules.

CHANGES TO THE PRIVACY STATEMENT

Beedie may update this Policy from time to time by posting a new version of the Policy on the Website. Beedie’s collection, use, disclosure, and retention of your personal information will be governed by the version of the Policy in effect at that time.
