Canam Systems (2002) Inc. takes your privacy very seriously. Please read this privacy policy carefully as it contains important information on who we are and our information practices, meaning how and why we collect, use, disclose, share, store, and retain your personal information. It also explains your rights in relation to your personal information and how to contact us or supervisory authorities in the event you have a complaint or request.

  1. How We Obtain Information About You.

We may collect personal data that you choose to provide to us through the site and apps, including, but not limited to, your first and last name, physical address, email address, photographs, or telephone number, such as when you:

  • Fill out a form on our website or through our software applications
  • Sign up to receive marketing communications
  • Sign up to a feature that we offer on our website or through our software applications and submit your personal data in connection with that feature;
  • Attend an event that We have organized;
  • Communicate with us (for example, on a social media platform or by sending us an email)

When you visit our website, we also may collect certain information by automated means using technologies such as cookies, non-cookie-based tokens, web server logs, tracking pixels, and web beacons. Cookies are files that websites send to your computer or other Internet-connected device to identify your browser uniquely or to store information or settings in your browser. Though your browser, you may be able to restrict or disable certain cookies, however, without cookies, you may not be able to use all of the features of our site

Where permitted by law, we may acquire personal data about you from third parties. This may include publicly-available profile information (such as your preferences and interests) on third party social media sites (such as Facebook and Twitter), and marketing lists acquired from third-party marketing agencies. We may also collect personal data in other contexts that we will notify you of at the time.

  1. Information We Obtain.
    • Information That You Provide to Us: This includes, without limitation, as described in Section 1.
    • Information That We Collect Automatically: Our Internet servers and applications may log information such as your operating system type, browser or device type, domain, and other system settings, as well as the language your system uses and the country and time zone where your device is located. The web server logs may also record information such as the address of the web page that referred you to our sites and the IP address of the device you use to connect to the Internet. They may also log information about your interaction with the sites, such as which pages you visit. Our apps may log which buttons are pressed or screens that users visit. To control which web servers, collect information by automated means, we may place tags called “web beacons” — small files that link web pages to particular web servers and their cookies. We may also collect information from your browser, such as your browsing history, and use it in conjunction with data gathered from forms and emails to help us understand and respond to your needs. Your browser settings may allow you to transmit a “Do Not Track” signal to websites and online services you visit. Like many other websites and online services, we do not currently process or respond to “Do Not Track” signals from your browser or to other mechanisms that enable choice. Both we and others (such as our service providers) may collect personal data about our visitors’ online activities over time and across third- party websites.
    • Social Media Widgets: Our website may include social media functions, such as the Twitter, LinkedIn, and Facebook widgets. These widgets may collect information about which pages you visit on the site and the IP address of the device you use to connect to the Internet. The widgets may also set a cookie to ensure the features are functioning properly. Social media functions and widgets are hosted either by a third party or directly on the site. Your interactions with the social media functions and widgets located on the site are governed by the privacy policies of the companies that provide them. We suggest you review the privacy policies of the companies that provide those functions and features.
    • LinkedIn Members: If you are a LinkedIn member and you visit our website from LinkedIn, our site may use tracking pixels — transparent graphic images placed on web pages — which, in combination with cookies, collect information contained within your LinkedIn profile as well as your access of and interaction with the web pages that contain the pixels.
    • Information That We Obtain From Third Parties: Information that we collect from third parties will generally consist of publicly-available profile information (such as your preferences and interests), for example from public social media posts.

Our website or our software applications may contain links to other websites that we do not own or operate. We provide links to third-party websites as a convenience to the user. These links are not intended as an endorsement of or referral to the linked websites. The linked websites have separate and independent privacy policies, notices, and terms of use. We do not have any control over such websites, and therefore we have no responsibility or liability for the manner in which the organizations that operate such linked websites may collect, use, or disclose, secure and otherwise treat personal information. We encourage you to read the privacy policy of every website you visit.

  1. Data Transfers.

We may transfer the personal data that we collect about you to recipients in countries other than the country in which the personal data originally was collected. Those countries may not have the same data protection laws as the country in which you initially provided the personal data. When we transfer your personal data to recipients in other countries (such as the U.S.), we will protect that personal data as described in this Notice. We may transfer any information we have about you as an asset in connection with a proposed or completed merger, acquisition, or sale (including transfers made as part of insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings). You may request a copy of the safeguards that we have put in place in respect of transfers of personal data by contacting us as described in the How To Contact Us section below.

  1. How Long We Keep Information.

The time period for which we keep personal data depends on the purpose for which we collected it. In all cases, we keep it for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which we collected it. We will then delete the personal data, unless we are legally required to retain it or if we need to retain it in order to comply with our legal obligations (for example, for tax and accounting purposes).

Subject to any applicable legal requirements, we typically retain personal data as follows:

  • Personal data you provide to us through our site and our apps: we keep this personal data for as long as necessary in order to respond to your request, and for a further period in case you send us further requests.
  • Personal data you provide when you sign up to receive direct marketing communications: we keep most of this personal data for the duration of our relationship with you until you opt out or we do not have any contact with you for a long period of time.
  • Personal data collected for analytics purposes: we keep this personal data for a short period of time necessary for us to carry out the analytics.
  • Website logs: we keep site audit logs, which may contain your personal data, for as long as necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected.

We have implemented reasonable administrative, technical and physical measures in an effort to safeguard the personal information in our custody and control against theft, loss and unauthorized access, use, modification and disclosure. We restrict access to personal information on a need-to-know basis to employees and authorized service providers who require access to fulfil their job requirements.
