  1. Transfer of personal information abroad

We sometimes use service providers located outside of Canada (including outside the province of Quebec) to carry out certain specific mandates in the ordinary course of our business. Therefore, certain personal information about you may be transferred to locations other than your province, territory, state or country of residence.

In such a case, we ensure that the personal information is transferred to countries that have received a compliance decision from the competent authority or that the personal information is adequately protected by technical, organizational, contractual or other appropriate legal means.

  1. Security of personal information

We implement appropriate security measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration or destruction.

We retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes set out in this policy unless a more extended retention period is required by law.

  1. Destruction of personal information

We will securely destroy personal information received at the end of the retention period or when the personal information is no longer required.

However, in some instances and for severe and legitimate purposes, such as for statistical data or otherwise, we could anonymize (that is to say, to make it impossible to identify the person through information and this irreversibly and permanently) personal information. This procedure will make tracing the individual linked to the intelligence impossible. The rest of the data will be destroyed following the previous paragraph.
