9. Safeguarding Your Information
We implement reasonable and appropriate physical, administrative, and technical safeguards to protect personal information in our custody and control against unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use, or modification. These measures are designed to be proportionate to the sensitivity of the information collected.
However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee absolute security. In the event of a privacy breach that poses a real risk of significant harm to you, we will notify you and the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada as required by law.
