Why Cartridge-Supplies collects personal information and how your personal information is usedCartridge-Supplies is committed to providing superior service. Cartridge-Supplies collects your personal information so that Cartridge-Supplies may maintain your client file and provide you with the services (or products) you have requested. Your personal information is used to understand your needs and preferences, determine whether Cartridge-Supplies services meet your needs, develop or improve products and/or services, and to deliver services and products that you have requested. The collection, use & disclosure of personal informationYour provision of Personal Information to Cartridge-Supplies means that you agree and consent that we may collect, use and disclose your Personal Information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with these terms, you are requested not to provide any Personal Information to Cartridge-Supplies. Unfortunately, certain services can only be offered if you provide Personal Information to Cartridge-Supplies. Consequently, if you choose not to provide us with any required Personal Information, Cartridge-Supplies may not be able to offer you those services. Cartridge-Supplies collects only such information from individuals or organizations as is required for the purposes of providing services or information to them. Cartridge-Supplies does not sell, trade, barter or exchange for consideration any Personal Information it has obtained. Unless permitted by law, no Personal Information is collected about an individual without first obtaining the consent of the individual to the collection, use and dissemination of that information. Personal Information will be collected, to the extent possible, directly from the individual concerned. Cartridge-Supplies does not knowingly collect Personal Information from anyone under the age of 18 and does not use such information if it discovers that it has been provided by a minor. Cartridge-Supplies may disclose Personal Information to franchise operators that perform services on its behalf. Personal Information will only be provided to such operators if they agree to use such information solely for the purposes of providing services to Cartridge-Supplies clients and under the instruction of Cartridge-Supplies and, with respect to that information, to act in a manner consistent with the relevant principles articulated in this Policy. Please note that there are circumstances where the use and/or disclosure of Personal Information may be justified or permitted or where Cartridge-Supplies is obliged to disclose information without consent. Such circumstances may include:
Where obliged or permitted to disclose information without consent, Cartridge-Supplies will not disclose more information than is required. AccuracyCartridge-Supplies endeavors to ensure that any Personal Information provided and in its possession is as accurate, current and complete as necessary for the purposes for which Cartridge-Supplies uses that information. RetentionCartridge-Supplies keeps Personal Information only as long as it is required for the reasons it was collected. The length of time information is retained varies, depending on the product or service and the nature of the information. This period may extend beyond the end of a person's relationship with us but it will only be for so long as it is necessary for us to have sufficient information to respond to any issues that may arise at a later date. When your Personal Information is no longer required for Cartridge-Supplies 's purposes, we have procedures to destroy, delete, erase or convert it into anonymous form. SecurityCartridge-Supplies endeavors to maintain adequate physical, procedural and technical security with respect to its offices and information storage facilities so as to prevent any loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure or modification of Personal information. Cartridge-Supplies further protects Personal Information by restricting access to it to those franchisees and/or employees that the management of Cartridge-Supplies has determined need to know that information in order that Cartridge-Supplies may provide services. Cartridge-Supplies franchisees and employees are informed of the importance of protecting your privacy and are expected to maintain the confidentiality of Cartridge-Supplies client information at all times. In terms of communicating Personal Information to Cartridge-Supplies , you may wish to note that there is no method of transmitting or storing data that is completely secure. While the physical characteristics of each are different, mail, telephone calls, faxes and transmissions over the Internet are all susceptible to possible loss, misrouting, interception and misuse of the information being communicated or transmitted. As do many organizations, Cartridge-Supplies attempts to strike a reasonable balance between security and convenience. In communicating with clients and others, Cartridge-Supplies often requests the right to use a method of communication that is less secure than some of its less convenient alternatives. An example of this is email. At this time, when we use email, it may be sent as unencrypted plain text. We do this because Cartridge-Supplies believes that many of our clients and others cannot readily process encrypted email. This is done for the convenience of our clients but has the security concern that, if misrouted or intercepted, it could be read more easily than encrypted email.
