Guidelines

Applicability

This Privacy Policy informs everyone of Lake Scugog Lumber’s commitment to privacy and establishes the methods by which privacy is ensured. This Privacy Policy applies to all personal information within Lake Scugog Lumber’s possession and control.

Personal information is defined as any identifying information about an individual or group of individuals, including name, date of birth, address, phone number, e-mail address, social insurance/security number, nationality, gender, health history, financial data, credit card numbers, bank account numbers, assets, debts, liabilities, payment records, credit records, loan records, opinions, and personal views.

Business information is defined as Lake Scugog Lumber, business address, business telephone number, name(s) of owner(s), executive officer(s), and director(s), job titles, business registration numbers, and financial status. Business information is treated and handled with the same level of confidentiality, privacy, and respect as personal information.

Consent occurs and is obtained when an individual signs an application or other form containing personal information, thereby authorizing Lake Scugog Lumber to collect, use, and disclose the individual’s personal information for the purposes stated on the form or in the Appropriate Use section of this policy.

Implied consent is granted by the individual when he/she signs the application or form. This allows Lake Scugog Lumber to obtain or verify information from third parties (such as banks, credit bureaus, lenders, or insurance companies) in the process of assessing the eligibility of an individual, customer, client, job applicant, or business partner.

Appropriate Use

Lake Scugog Lumber collects and uses personal information solely for the purpose of conducting business and developing an understanding of its customers.
