Introduction
Butkowski Digital Imaging (BDI) values the privacy
and personal information of their customers, prospective
customers, suppliers, prospective suppliers, directors,
officers, shareholders, consultants, independent
contractors and other stakeholders.
This Privacy Policy outlines the manner in which
BDI collects, uses, discloses and manages personal
information in the course of commercial activities.
For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, "personal
information" means any information that can
be used to identify, distinguish or contact an identifiable
individual, but does not include the name, title,
business address or telephone number of an employee
of an organization. Our Privacy Policy does not
apply to corporate information.
We recommend that you review this Privacy Policy
in its entirety and revisit it periodically, as
it may change from time to time. All changes will
be posted on the BDI Website.
1. Accountability
We are responsible for personal information in our
possession or under our control.
2. Purposes for Collection of Personal Information
We collect personal information only for the following
purposes:
(a) to identify BDI Stakeholders;
(b) to establish and maintain responsible relationships
with the BDI Stakeholders;
(c) to understand, develop and/or enhance the needs,
desires, concerns or opinions of the BDI Stakeholders;
(d) to carry out our organizational activities;
(e) to manage and develop our business and operations;
and
(f) to meet legal and regulatory requirements;
(collectively, the "Identified Purposes").
3. Consent
We will obtain consent for the collection, use and
disclosure of personal information, except where
inappropriate or permitted or required by law. How
we obtain consent (i.e., the form we use) will depend
on the circumstances, as well as the sensitivity
of the information collected. We may seek consent
orally, electronically or in writing. Typically,
we will seek consent at the time personal information
is being collected.
When personal information that has been collected
is to be used or disclosed for a purpose not previously
identified, the new purpose will be identified prior
to such use or disclosure. Unless the new purpose
is permitted or required by law, consent will be
required before the personal information will be
used or disclosed for the new purpose.
Keep in mind that you may withdraw your consent
at any time to any of the uses or disclosures contemplated
in this Privacy Policy, subject to legal or contractual
restrictions and reasonable notice. Please note,
however, that withdrawing your consent to some of
the contemplated uses or disclosures may render
it impossible for us to continue to deal with you.
4. Collection of Information
We collect personal information in a number of different
ways, including whenever you access our Website.
We will limit the amount and type of personal information
collected from you to that which is necessary for
the purposes we have communicated to you, including
the Identified Purposes. Further, we will retain
your personal information only for so long as is
necessary to fulfill our stated purposes.
We routinely collect anonymous, non-personal information
through our Web servers. This is information that
is not associated with or traced back to a specific
individual. Gathered electronically, this information
includes the type of Web browser used, the level
of encryption a browser supports and the Internet
Protocol address. This information may be used for
research and analytical purposes, to examine how
our Website is being used and to determine how it
can be improved.
5. Use, Disclosure and Retention of Personal Information
We may use an individual's personal information
for any of the Identified Purposes, or for any other
purpose that has been consented to or that is permitted
by law. Only our directors, officers, employees,
consultants and independent contractors with a business
need to know, or whose duties or services reasonably
so require, are granted access to personal information
about a BDI Stakeholder.
We may disclose an individual's personal information
to a third party:
(a) who requires such information in order to assist
BDI in the general administration and/or operation
of its business and/or the supply of products and/or
services to that individual; or
(b) who requires such information and who is affiliated
with or otherwise related to or part of BDI; or
(c) with whom BDI may at any time in the future
be negotiating for the purpose of that third party
making an investment in BDI, making a loan to BDI
or purchasing all or any part of BDI's business
operations; or
(d) where that individual has consented to such
disclosure; or
(e) where such disclosure is permitted or required
by law.
We will protect personal information disclosed to
third parties by contractual or other means, stipulating
the purposes for which it is to be used and the
necessity to provide a comparable level of protection.
We will keep personal information only as long as
it remains necessary or relevant for the Identified
Purposes, any other purpose that has been consented
to or as required by law. We will maintain reasonable
and systematic controls, schedules and practices
for information and records retention and destruction
which apply to personal information that is no longer
necessary or relevant for any such purposes or required
by law to be retained. Such information will be
destroyed, erased or made anonymous.
6. Accuracy
We will make every reasonable effort to keep personal
information accurate, complete and up-to-date. In
the event that you become aware of errors in your
personal information, we would very much appreciate
you submitting appropriate notification and corrective
information to us. In such an event, we will correct
the information in our records and make reasonable
efforts to communicate the new information to relevant
third parties.
7. Security and Safeguards
We will use appropriate security measures to protect
personal information against such risks as loss
or theft or unauthorized access, disclosure, copying,
use, modification or destruction, regardless of
the format in which it is held.
8. Openness
We are committed to being open about our policies
and practices with respect to the handling of personal
information. Our Privacy Policy is available through
our Website. |
