This Policy does not apply to our employees’ personal information or any anonymized information.

SECTION 3 – CONSENT
We will process your personal information only with your knowledge and consent, except where exempted, required or permitted by applicable laws.
How do you get my consent?
The form of consent may vary depending on the circumstances and the type of information being requested. Your consent may be express with clear options to say “yes” or “no”, such as by being asked to check a box to indicate your consent, or implied, such as when you provide us with your address through a form or email seeking information and we use those means to respond to your request. For example, when you provide us with personal information to complete a transaction, arrange for a delivery or return a purchase, we imply that you consent to our collecting it and using it for that specific purpose.
By using our Website or Services, or otherwise by choosing to provide us with your personal information, you acknowledge and consent to the processing of your personal information in accordance with this Policy and as may be further identified when the personal information is collected. When we process your personal information for a new purpose, we will document that new purpose and, if required, obtain your consent again.
If you do not consent to the processing of your personal information in accordance with this Policy, please do not access or continue to use any of the Website or Service or otherwise provide any personal information to us.
How do I withdraw my consent?
You may refuse to provide consent or may notify us at any time that you wish to withdraw or change your consent to the processing of your personal information without penalty, subject to legal or contractual restrictions and reasonable notice by contacting us at service@fuzionflooring.com or mailing us at 6745 Financial Dr, Mississauga, ON L5N 7J7. However, if you withdraw or change your consent, we may not be able to provide you with the Services through the Website.
SECTION 4 – DISCLOSURE; SERVICE PROVIDERS
We will not share personal information we collect from you with any third party, except as indicated in this Policy or as permitted or required by law.
(a) Important Exceptions
We may disclose your personal information to a third party without your consent if permitted or required by applicable law. We may also disclose your personal information, in accordance with applicable law, in connection with a corporate re-organization, a merger or amalgamation with another entity, or a sale of all or a substantial portion of our assets provided that the disclosed information continues to be used solely for the purposes permitted by this privacy policy by the entity acquiring the information.
(b) Service Providers
We may retain agents, subcontractors or service providers from time to time in relation to our business or the products or services that we provide. If we require a service provider to deal with your personal information, we will take reasonable steps to ensure that the service provider adheres to privacy procedures and will keep your personal information confidential. We will not provide more information than is necessary to the service provider and will ensure that the information is returned or destroyed once the purpose for which it was given is filled.
Our service providers may be located outside of Canada, and you acknowledge that personal information may be processed and stored in foreign jurisdictions with different (and perhaps weaker) privacy laws, and that the governments, courts or law enforcement or regulatory agencies in those jurisdictions may be able to obtain disclosure of that personal information through the laws of the foreign jurisdiction.
SECTION 5 – THIRD-PARTY SERVICES
In general, the third-party providers we use will only collect, use and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide to us.
However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies in respect to the information we are required to provide to them for your purchase-related transactions. For these providers, we recommend that you read their privacy policies so you can understand the manner in which your personal information will be handled by these providers.
In particular, remember that certain providers may be located in or have facilities that are located a different jurisdiction than either you or us. So if you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third-party service provider, then your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located.
SECTION 6 – SECURITY
The security of your personal information is important to us. To protect your personal information, we take reasonable physical, organizational, and electronic security arrangements designed to prevent unauthorized access, collection, use, disclosure, copying, modification, disposal or similar risks.
We will take reasonable measures, through contractual or other reasonable means, to ensure that the suppliers and agents who assist in providing services implement a comparable level of personal information protection.
However, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is completely secure; as such, despite our safeguards and protocols, we cannot fully guarantee the security of your personal information and you should always exercise caution when disclosing personal information over the Internet.
SECTION 7 – RETENTION OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
We keep personal information for only as long as it is needed to accomplish the purposes for which it was collected, or as needed for authorized or legitimate purposes (including to comply with applicable laws or to protect our interests). When personal information is no longer necessary or relevant for the identified purposes, or is no longer required to be retained by applicable laws, we will take steps to have it deleted, destroyed, erased, aggregated or made anonymous. We use reasonable industry practices to ensure we have adequate controls, schedules and practices for information and records retention and destruction which apply to personal information.
