6. Grounds for Processing Personal Data
- General. We will not process your Personal Data without your consent, unless we are permitted or required to do so by applicable law. Your consent may be express or implied, depending on the nature and sensitivity of the Personal Data. The type of consent we may rely on in processing your Personal Data will vary based on your reasonable expectations, the sensitivity of your Personal Data, and the circumstances surrounding the collection of your Personal Data. Express consent is when you willingly agree (e.g., orally, in writing, or electronic agreement) to the processing of your Personal Data for particular purposes. Implied consent is when: (a) you do not expressly give consent, but you rather volunteer Personal Data for obvious purposes that a reasonable person would consider appropriate in the circumstances; or (b) you are given notice and a reasonable opportunity to opt-out of your Personal Data being processed for specified purposes, and you do not opt-out.
7. Disclosure of Personal Data
- General. Anytime we disclose your Personal Data to third parties, we take reasonable measures to ensure that the rules set forth in this Privacy Policy are complied with and these third parties provide contractual guarantees to implement appropriate technical and organizational measures in accordance with applicable privacy and data protection laws. We minimize the amount of Personal Data we disclose to what is directly relevant and necessary to accomplish the specified purpose.
- Service Providers. We may provide your Personal Data to third party service providers in order to help us achieve the Purposes and operate our Services. For example, we may use third party service providers to help us process payments, analyze usage of our Services, track the effectiveness of our marketing strategies and communications, assist with the prevention, detection and investigation of potentially illegal acts and security breaches, collect and process error and crash reports, and store data. These third parties are authorized to use your Personal Data only as necessary to provide these services to us. We take commercially reasonable steps to help ensure our service providers provide at least the same level of protection for Personal Data as we do.
- Corporate Transactions. We may also disclose or transfer your Personal Data to affiliates or third parties in the event of a proposed reorganization, merger, sale, joint venture, assignment, transfer or other disposition of all or any portion of our business, assets or equity, subject in each case to customary confidentiality agreements.
- Legal Disclosure. We may disclose Personal Data if we reasonably believe disclosure is in accordance with or required by any applicable law, regulation or legal process. This includes the disclosure of Personal Data where necessary for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims, or as otherwise permitted by applicable law. Greenline will have no liability associated with any such disclosures made in good faith.
- International Transfer and Storage. Your Personal Data may be stored and processed in any country where we have facilities or in which we engage third party service providers. By using our Services and otherwise providing us your Personal Data, you consent to the transfer of your Personal Data to countries outside of your country of residence, which may have different data protection rules than in your country. While such information is outside of the Canada, it is subject to the laws of the country in which it is held, and may be subject to disclosure to the governments, courts or law enforcement or regulatory agencies of such other country, pursuant to the laws of such country. However, our practices regarding your Personal Data will at all times continue to be governed by this Privacy Policy.
8. Retention of Personal Data
- We will retain your Personal Data only as long as necessary to: (a) fulfill the Purposes; (b) protect our legal rights; and (c) comply with applicable law. We will securely delete or anonymize the Personal Data once it is no longer necessary for us to hold it. We are not responsible for any liability or loss you experience as a result of such disposal of Personal Data.
9. Security of Personal Data
- We protect your Personal Data using appropriate technical and organizational measures to reduce the risks of loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure and alteration. Such measures include employing industry-standard encryption at every stage of contact with you and your data. We take steps designed to ensure that only those employees who need access to your Personal Data to fulfil their employment duties will have access to it. While we maintain a robust system of data protection, no method of transmission over the Internet, or other method of storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. We encourage you to also take steps to protect Personal Data by, for example, closing all web browsers after using our website.
