Depending on how you have configured your browser, when you
access our website, a small file - a “cookie” - may be created by
our server and stored on your computer. The cookie contains a unique
session identification number and is used to:
• keep track of your online order;
• ensure that you see the correct products and pricing applicable to
the province in which you are located;
• personalize your experience by alerting you to features and
information that might interest you;

A cookie cannot be used to access or otherwise compromise the
data on your hard drive. If you arrive at our website with your
browser configured to disable cookies, you will not be identified
until you register and sign-in. Please be advised that cookies may
be required to complete certain functions on this website, such as
making purchases or placing orders at our online store.
Aggregate Information
We collect certain aggregate information, such as tracking the
Internet address of the domains from which you visit our site and
analyzing this data for trends and statistics, tracking your IP
address (the number that is automatically assigned to your computer
when you are using the Web), and tracking your browser type.
We use this aggregate information to help diagnose problems with
our servers, to administer our website, and to gather broad
demographic information. None of this information is connected with
your personal information. We may also generate non-identifying and
aggregate profiles from personal information provided during
registration (such as the total number, but not the names, of
clients).
Use of IP Addresses
An IP address is a number that is automatically
assigned to your computer whenever you're surfing the Internet.
Web servers automatically identify your computer by its IP
address. We may collect IP addresses for the purposes of system
administration, to report aggregated information to our
advertisers, and to audit the use of our website. When clients
request pages from our website, our servers log the requesting
clients' IP addresses. We normally will not link IP addresses to
anything personally identifiable, which means that clients'
sessions will be logged, but client identity remains anonymous
to us. We can and will use IP addresses to identify a client
when we feel it is necessary to enforce compliance with our
rules or terms of service or to protect our service, website, or
any person, or where it is otherwise authorized or required by
law.
Use, Disclosure and Retention
We will only use or disclose personal information for the
purpose(s) for which it was collected.
We may disclose the personal information to:
(i) a person who in our reasonable judgment is seeking the
information as an agent of the individual;
(ii) a company or individual engaged by us to perform functions
on its behalf, such as research or data processing;
(iii) a credit reporting agency;
(iv) a public authority or agent of a public authority, if in
our reasonable judgment, it appears that there is imminent
danger to life or property which could be avoided or minimized
by disclosure of the information; or
(v) where you consent to such disclosure or it is required or
authorized by law.
We may use and disclose employee personal information for a
variety of purposes related to commencing, managing or
terminating the employment relationship.
We do not sell, rent, loan, trade, or lease any personal
information collected at our site, including contact forms,
download requests or email lists.
We will retain personal information only as long as necessary
to fulfill the purposes stated above, as required for legal or
business purposes or as required by law. Subsequently, we will
destroy, erase, or make anonymous such information. However, we
will retain for at least one year personal information that has
been used to make a decision about a client, customer or
employee.
Accuracy of Personal Information
We will make reasonable efforts to ensure that personal
information in our control is accurate and complete. You may
request corrections to your personal information. If your
request for a correction is rejected by us, we will make a
notation of such request and rejection on your file or personal
information.
Safeguarding Personal Information
We will protect personal information in your control against
risks of loss, theft, unauthorized access, disclosure, copying,
use, modification or destruction by security safeguards that are
appropriate to the sensitivity and format of the information.
Access
Upon reasonable written notice from you, we will, within 30
days or such longer period in the event we obtain an extension,
provide access to all your personal information in our
possession and tell your what the information is being used for
and to whom it has been disclosed.
We reserve the right to charge a reasonable fee for providing
access to personal information.
Complaints
If you have complaints about how your personal information is
being handled by us, you may file a written complaint with our
designated representative at the contact address listed above.
Such complaint must clearly state the nature of the dispute and
contain all necessary contact information for you.
We will acknowledge receipt of a complaint, investigate such
complaint and notify you of the outcome of the complaint,
including any relevant steps taken.
If a complaint has not been resolved to your satisfaction,
you may seek redress with the California State License Board or
Better Business Bureau.
Links to Other Sites
We are not responsible for the content or the privacy
policies of websites to which our website may link and our
privacy policy does not apply to those websites. These other
websites may send their own cookies to users, collect data, or
solicit personal information. Please keep in mind that whenever
you give out personal information online (for example, via
message boards or chat lines), that information can be collected
and used by people you don't know. While we strive to protect
our clients’ personal information, we cannot guarantee the
security of any information you disclose online, you disclose
such information at your own risk.
Our Commitment to Children's Privacy
Protecting children's privacy is especially important to us.
It is our policy to comply with applicable laws. We recommend
that children ask a parent for permission before sending
personal information to us or to anyone else online.

To ensure that this Policy is up to date and complies with
the privacy policy act, we reserve the right to make changes,
which will become effective 30 days following our providing
