Full Privacy Policy
PHILLIP BOUCHER is dedicated to
protecting your privacy. The confidentiality and accuracy of your personal
information is my highest priority. I take great care and provisions to keep
your personal information private, protected, and accurate. This privacy
policy complies with the Personal Information Protection and Electronic
Documents Act (PIPEDA) of the Government of Canada.
I collect, use, and disclose personal
information only to enable myself to do business with you and on your behalf, or as
required by law. I collect only necessary information such as your name, address, billing
address, phone number, fax number, mobile number or email address, so I can
correspond with you, ship products, send invoices, and otherwise identify you in
my records. For authors I collect other personal information such as
educational or personal background, date of birth, nationality, photo or
picture, or other such information for the promotion and advertising, and
business activities of the company for, or on behalf of, the author, and as
required by law. For clients, I may collect any or all of the above
information, plus any other personal or business information that may be
necessary to conduct business for, or on behalf of, the client. All personal and
business information is treated with the same respect to privacy and
confidentiality.
All personal information is restricted
access and is kept off
line either in secured digital or paper format. I do not sell, give, or provide your information to any third parties that would
use it for any direct marketing or other similar types of use. Your information
is strictly for my own business use between you and me, or on your behalf with
any other third party. I ensure that any other third party understands my commitment to the protection of
my customer's personal information and work
together with any third party to protect that information.
I keep personal information on file for as long as reasonably necessary, or as required by law. Once your
information is no longer needed, it is destroyed.
To collect, use, and disclose your
personal information I need your consent, which is either implied or expressed.
For example, implied consent would be when you send me an email, letter, or call. Your are giving your implied consent for
me to collect, use, and disclose
your personal information that you provide in that correspondence to enable me to respond to your contact and provide you with the information pertaining to
your communication. Your information will not be used in any other way. You also give
me implied consent to retain that information to enable me to contact you for
further correspondence related to your initial contact. An example of express
consent would be when one of my authors in their contract gives us express consent
to use their personal information to enable me to promote themselves and their
work through press releases, reviews, interviews, and postings. Personal and
business information express consent for clients is covered in standard and
non-disclosure contract clauses.
Barring any contractual obligations or
legal requirements, you have the right to refuse to provide personal information
to me, and if I am given reasonable advance notice, to withdraw your consent
for the collection, use, and disclosure of your personal information. Please be
aware that the refusal or withdrawal
of your consent may preclude me from providing or continuing to provide you with
services.
You also have the right to verify,
update, and correct your personal information in my records and request to have
it amended. There would be no charge for this service.
Also, in providing you with services I may need to protect the privacy of other third parties in the same
way that I protect yours, if at any point this information is requested by you,
or needed to be provided to you for any reason. I will need the implied or
express consent of any third party for this purpose.
This privacy policy may be changed or
updated at any time. Please check this page regularly to keep up to date.
