We have put in place industry standard security measures designed to prevent your personal information from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorised way, altered or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your personal information to those employees, agents, contractors and other third parties who have a business need to know. They will only process your personal information on our instructions and they are subject to a duty of confidentiality.
Despite the foregoing security measures and significant steps that we have taken to protect your personal information, no company can fully eliminate all security risks associated with the processing of personal information.

We encourage you to keep watch for communications that are suspicious, and report any suspicious activity to us as soon as possible.
In the event there has been a breach of our security safeguards which involve your personal information, including the unauthorized access, use or disclosure of your personal information, loss of your personal information, or other breach, and where there is a risk that significant harm will come to you as a result of that breach, we will notify you of the breach and report the breach to the Privacy Commissioner and to the Commission d’accès à l’information if the breach affects residents of Quebec.
