3. THE INFORMATION WE COLLECT

When you access and use the website, Maître Piscinier may collect certain data regarding your use of the website, such as the features used, the sections visited or any other data identifying the operating system of the device you are using. This data cannot be used to identify you personally. We may use performance tools provided by third parties, such as Google Analytics, to collect information that is not of a personal nature, such as the internet browser and the type of operating system you are using and the name of the domain from which you were directed to the website. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect statistical aggregate data in order to analyze how visitors use a website. These cookies are used to store non-identifying data. If you do not wish to provide information to Google Analytics, you can opt out of having your data used by installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on available at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

In addition, when you visit the website, we may place a data file on your device, such as a cookie, pixel tags (very small graphics) or a similar file. These files allow us to store certain information about your use of the website, including the date of your most recent visit, the pages you visited and the files you downloaded. This allows us to tailor the website to better meet the interests and preferences of our users. These files may also be used by Maître Piscinier for targeted marketing purposes in order to show you content or advertisements that we deem likely to interest you based on your browsing behaviour on the website. You have the option to disable these cookies in the future if you wish by changing your browser’s settings.

Maître Piscinier may also collect certain personal information about you, which may include, as the case may be, your full name, mailing address, email address, telephone number and credit card information, which you voluntarily provide when using features of the website such as when making inquiries, orders and requests for quotes, when registering for one of our initiatives or when informing us of any problems with the website or the services or products provided by Maître Piscinier.

4. HOW INFORMATION IS STORED AND DISCLOSED

Maître Piscinier stores personal information for a reasonable period of time to provide you with proper access to the website, to fully respond to your requests and/or process your orders or to fulfill stated purposes, or in accordance with law, whichever is longer. After this period, we ensure that the personal information is depersonalized or destroyed to protect it from unauthorized access or disclosure.

Only authorized relevant staff members may access the data when necessary for the performance of their service-related duties and in accordance with the purposes stated in this privacy policy, subject to the following paragraph.

We never disclose your personal information to anyone outside Maître Piscinier without your consent, except to the following third parties and only if they have implemented appropriate security safeguards to ensure at least the same level of security as we do:

• Our suppliers whose services have been retained to perform certain functions on our behalf (e.g. data processing and storage, sending communications, payment processing, delivery, etc.). In such cases, we take the necessary steps to ensure that these third parties have access only to the information that is necessary to carry out the agreed services, that they process your information only for the purposes we have specified and that they have personal information protection measures in place that comply with applicable laws and respect the same conditions and level of protection as set out in this privacy policy;
• Any entity resulting from a merger, corporate reorganization or change of control of Maître Piscinier, in whole or in part, only if the parties have signed an agreement stipulating that the collection, use and disclosure of the information is limited to the objectives of the business transaction;
• Any public authority if required by law, or to defend our rights, or otherwise in accordance with the law. If Maître Piscinier is required to disclose information or provide a copy of such information to a government agency in accordance with law or court order, Maître Piscinier will attempt to give you prior notice to the extent permitted by law.

5. HYPERLINKS AND THIRD PARTIES

The website may contain sharing or posting options or links to third-party websites or platforms. By using or activating these links or features, you are leaving the website and your browsing becomes subject to the terms and conditions and privacy policy of such third parties. We have no control over these third-party platforms and the fact that these platforms are listed on the website does not render us liable in any way.

6. SECURITY

All data is stored on servers with high-level security standards and is protected against improper use and access by unauthorized persons. We strive to maintain the necessary physical, administrative and technical security measures in place at our offices and data storage centres. The information is only made available to individuals (employees or agents) who need access to the information in order to carry out their duties.

Maître Piscinier uses reasonable means to protect personal information received when you use the website. More specifically, Maître Piscinier uses technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information from loss or theft, as well as from unauthorized access and disclosure, both internally and externally to our organization. However, no security mechanism is perfect, and you should be aware that there is always a risk of a security breach. Maître Piscinier disclaims any liability should any such information about you be disclosed, except in the event of negligence on the part of Maître Piscinier. It should be noted that, in order to reduce security breach risks, no credit card information is stored on the servers used to host the website.

All data collected in connection with your use of the website is generally stored on servers located in Canada. However, the data may be processed by Maître Piscinier’s third-party service providers located outside of Canada to enable them to carry out work on behalf of Maître Piscinier. In the latter case, Maître Piscinier takes reasonable steps to ensure that such third parties are bound by appropriate guarantees.

7. YOUR RIGHTS

You have the right to know the purpose for which Maître Piscinier collects and processes your personal information, as well as the right to access, update and correct such information. You may withdraw your consent to Maître Piscinier’s use and storage of your personal information at any time. In such a case, however, you may no longer be able to use certain features of the website.
