1. Purposes of the Privacy Policy: 

Respect for privacy and the protection of personal information are essential to us, which is why, through this Policy, we intend to protect them in accordance with the laws in force.

 

In order to ensure this protection, Sylvie Bergeron undertakes to only collect, process and share information allowing the identification of an individual when the latter has consented, unless this is permitted or required by law, in which case your consent will not be necessary. 

 

The Policy aims to inform users of the reasons and how Sylvie Bergeron, or any person acting on her behalf, will collect and use their personal information. It is intended to be in clear language in order to ensure informed consent from users.  

 

For the purposes of this Policy, “personal information” means any information about an identifiable or identifiable individual. Where possible, we will anonymize, pseudonymize and/or aggregate these so that they no longer identify an individual.

2. Entry into force

This Policy applies from September 22, 2023. 

3. Methods for obtaining consent;

We are committed to obtaining consent before collecting an individual's personal information. Consent may be express or implied and may be provided directly by the individual or their authorized representative.

 

We prioritize obtaining explicit consent, whether verbally, electronically or in writing. However, implied consent can be reasonably inferred from a person's action or inaction. For example, providing a name and address to receive a publication or a name and telephone number to obtain a response to a question is considered implied consent to the collection of information containing personal information. To determine the appropriate type of consent, we consider the sensitivity of the personal information involved, the purposes for which it is collected and the reasonable expectations of an individual in a similar situation. 

 

If we want to use personal information for a new purpose, we will describe the intended use and ask for consent again.

 

It is not always possible, particularly in the context of a request from the State, to obtain the consent of the person to collect, use or communicate their personal information. We undertake to never communicate this type of information, other than in accordance with this Policy, unless the law requires or permits us to do so. 

 

​4. Objectives of data collection

Sylvie Bergeron may collect personal information in various forms, but will only do so by lawful means and only for the necessary purposes disclosed to you, as described in this Policy, or when permitted or required by law.  

 

The personal information collected, as well as its sensitivity, may vary depending on the context in which the interactions between you and Sylvie Bergeron take place. This is why we must first inform you of the nature of the personal information we use.

Sylvie Bergeron attaches the greatest importance to the security of your personal information and is committed to processing it according to industry norms and standards, only for the purposes for which it is collected as described in this policy or in a specific notice to this effect.

To the best of our ability, we will provide you with timely access to your personal information. However, for security reasons, we may need to verify your identity. 

 

Furthermore, there may be circumstances where we cannot give you access to your personal information. In particular, when access may lead to the disclosure of personal information of another person and that person refuses to consent to the disclosure thereof or when legal restrictions apply. If such a situation arises, we will notify you of the reason why we cannot give you access to your personal information.
