HOW TO ENTER
Jamieson Sites may use various technologies to passively collect information from You while You are visiting (that is, You do not actively provide this information to Jamieson). Such technologies allow the Jamieson Site to collect a range of non-personally identifiable information, including Your Internet Protocol (IP) address (a unique identifier automatically assigned to Your computer when logging onto the Internet), the type of Web browser and operating system You use, the date and time You visit the Jamieson Site, the specific pages You visit on the Jamieson Site, and the address of the Web site You visited before coming to the Jamieson Site.
Jamieson typically uses such passively collected information for a variety of purposes, such as to administer the Jamieson Site, customize the Jamieson Site to Your preferences, and compile aggregated statistics for marketing and research purposes. Jamieson reserves the unrestricted right to use this passively collected, non-personally identifiable information, including, but not limited to, selling, leasing, permitting access to, or otherwise transferring it to our affiliates, business partners, advertisers and other third parties.
The "passive information collection" technologies that we use may include "cookies". Cookies are small text files that store information about Your interactions with a particular Web site, either temporarily (known as a "temporary" or "session" cookie, and deleted once You close Your browser window) or more permanently on the hard drive of Your computer (known as a "permanent" or "persistent cookie"). Cookies can make it easier to use a Web site by allowing servers to access certain information quickly:
- "Session" cookies can be used to help a user's browser navigate a Web site more smoothly and may show up if the user comes from a Web site with which the subsequent Web site has some relationship (e.g., a Web site of an affiliated company) and can give helpful information.
- "Persistent" cookies can be used to customize a Web site for a user, such as by storing passwords, preferences, and registration and account information so that users do not have to re-enter them each time they visit a Web site. Uses and Disclosure of Information Except as described in this Policy or as You may otherwise consent to from time to time, Jamieson will not use, and will not disclose or provide any of Your personal information to any other person. We do not sell, trade, or rent Your personal information to others for marketing purposes. As described above, generally, the purpose for collecting Your personal information will be explained to You, in clear language, at the time of collection.
When You provide information to Jamieson by completing a registration form, submitting questions or comments or feedback concerning Jamieson or products and services and other topics, completing surveys and evaluations and other similar situations, we will use this information to learn more about our customers and their preferences, improve our products, services and the Jamieson Sites and for related marketing and research purposes.
Jamieson reserves the right to transfer any information submitted by You and retained by Jamieson to Jamieson affiliates to the extent necessary to perform requested services and provide requested information. Jamieson may sell all or part of its business, sell or securitize assets, or merge or amalgamate part or all of our business with other entities. Since customer information and data would normally be a part of such transactions, we may use or disclose such information to other parties included in the transaction, as part of due diligence activities and/or on the completion of the transaction.
CHILDREN
Jamieson does not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 18.
Exceptions where Jamieson may Collect, Use or Disclose Information without Consent:
If we are required or permitted by law: We may be required to release information by a court of law or other legal or regulatory authority. If so, our policy is to release information only to the extent that we have to. We may also collect, use or disclose information without consent where permitted by law. For example, we may collect and use publicly available information like information in the telephone book for marketing or customer service purposes. Further, for other legal, medical, emergency or other security reasons, it may be impossible or impractical to seek or obtain Your consent.
If we use an outside third party supplier to do work for us: We may from time to time use outside third party suppliers to do work for us involving some of Your information. For example, to perform computer services on our behalf or to analyze survey results or marketing data or to administer to manage promotions or contests or for other reasonable purposes. We select the company carefully and confirm that it uses privacy and security standards that meet Jamieson's requirements. If such third parties are located outside of Canada Jamieson will notify You prior to any such transfer taking place.
If we have to protect the interests of Jamieson: In certain circumstances, Jamieson may have to collect, use or release information without consent for its protection. For example, we may do so to detect, investigate or prevent fraud.

Jamieson may collect aggregated, anonymous information (such as demographic and profile data, usage and selection data and similar information and data) about You, including in connection with Your use of a Jamieson Site, Your participation in various Jamieson promotions or contests and otherwise in connection with the purchase of Jamieson products and use share that information with other third parties (such as Jamieson's service providers, agents, marketing consultants and advertisers) in order to better understand and learn more about our customers and their preferences, improve our products, services and the Jamieson Sites and for related marketing and research purposes. Any such aggregated information will not contain personally identifiable information about You.

Jamieson will keep Your information only for as long as it is reasonably needed to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, unless and to the extent a longer retention is permitted or required by law. Your information is destroyed when it is no longer needed or it is converted to an aggregated and anonymous form. The length of time we keep Your information varies depending on the reason it was collected and the nature of the personal information. For legal reasons, we may keep information beyond the end of Your relationship with us.
ACCURACY & ACCESS TO YOUR INFORMATION
You have the right to access, verify, rectify and update Your personal information.
Jamieson takes reasonable steps to ensure Your personal information is accurate, complete, and up-to-date.

You can contact Jamieson to request to know what information Jamieson may have collected and retained about You and how that information is being used. Depending on the nature of the information You are requesting and complexity of Your request, we may ask You to put Your request in writing. In some instances on, You may be able to log into Your account profile or preferences on a Jamieson Site to view and/or modify Your information, as appropriate.
We protect other people's privacy when we make information about You available to You. It may not be appropriate for us to release certain information directly to You. There may be records that include information about You and other customers, or that have information confidential to Jamieson or are the property of Jamieson. Because we must protect everyone's confidentiality and legal rights, we cannot make these records available to persons outside of Jamieson. We will, however, make available to You any factual information about You contained in such records. If we are unable to disclose information to You, we'll explain why, subject to any legal restrictions. If You wish to challenge our decision, we will tell You how to escalate Your request.
You can withdraw Your consent
Subject to legal and contractual requirements, You may change or withdraw Your consent at any time (which includes electing not to receive further communications or other services from us) by: (1) changing Your choice on the Jamieson Site, if and where available; (2) using the unsubscribe feature, in the case of e-mail distributions if and where available; or (3) contacting Jamieson's Director of Communications in the "Contacting Jamieson" section of this Policy below.
Withdrawing Your consent will generally not affect Your relationship with Jamieson or eligibility to receive Jamieson offers. However, if You don't consent or if You withdraw Your consent, we may not be able to provide You with a particular service or provide You with requested information. When You change or withdraw Your consent, we will do our best to make sure that our files are updated as quickly as possible. It may take some time for our records to reflect Your changes as many records can only be changed during regular file updates.
SAFEGUARDS AND SECURITY
We will use reasonable efforts to protect information that You provide to Jamieson once it has been received by Jamieson. Jamieson employs physical, administrative and technical safeguards, reasonably appropriate to the sensitivity of the information, to safeguard Your personal information against loss, theft, misuse, unauthorized access or disclosure and alteration.
Although Jamieson uses reasonable efforts to safeguard Your information, we cannot guarantee it. Jamieson cannot ensure or guarantee that any information You provide to Jamieson is completely secure from individuals who might attempt to deliberately evade security measures, including by intercepting transmissions over the Internet. You provide Jamieson with Your information at Your own risk.
