IDGLOBAL respects your privacy and is committed to protecting
your personal information. This policy outlines how we handle the
collection, use and disclosure of your personal information. Our
policy is guided by the provincial and federal privacy laws applicable
in British Columbia, Canada.
What Information Do We Collect?
In the course of conducting business with
you, IDGLOBAL will collect information from you such as: your name,
title, company or organization, address, telephone number, fax
number and email address. If you participate in our surveys or
contests, your survey opinion and submissions for our contests
will be collected. If you provide your resume to us through we
will also collect this information. On our web site, we may collect
your Internet Protocol ("IP") address and cookies.
Your "IP address" is a unique 32-bit numeric address that
distinguishes your computer from another computer. "Cookies" are
small text files that contain information about you, such as your
user name and password, which are stored on the web browser of your
computer.
What Privacy Principles Are Followed
by IDGLOBAL?
1. Accountability
IDGLOBAL is responsible for ensuring the protection of the information
you have provided to us.
2. Why Do We Collect Your Information?
We collect information from you for the following reasons:
-to provide
information on our products and services that may be of interest
to you;
-to contact you, when
necessary, regarding issues concerning your use of our products and
services;
-to obtain information about your use of our products and services,
potentially through a survey to better understand your needs, as
input to future product development plans;
-to obtain information about your qualifications and skills if you
submit your resume to us for the purposes of applying for a position
with IDGLOBAL; and the information may be legally required.
3. Obtaining Your Consent
We will obtain your consent prior to the collection, use or disclosure
of your information. Consent may be express or implied. Implied
consent means that you provide the information to us and the purpose
of providing such information would be clear to you, even if we
did not state it. Our privacy policy, however, does not limit IDGLOBAL
from collecting and using information that is publicly available.
This means, for instance, your name and business email address
could be added to our email and/or postal communication list so
that we can provide further information to you on our products
and services. We will, however, respect your choice not to
be contacted. All our marketing email messages contain an option
to automatically "opt-out" of receiving messages from
us.
4. Limiting Collection
IDGLOBAL will only collect information about you that is necessary
to achieve the purposes identified in this policy.
5. Limiting Use, Disclosure and Retention
IDGLOBAL will use the information you provide only for the purposes
identified in this policy. We will not use this information for any
other purpose unless we have obtained your consent. IDGLOBAL will
only disclose information about you to its affiliated companies,
distributors, and to authorized agents that assist us in performing
our functions for the limited purposes listed above. Our agents may
include companies and individuals that deliver packages, provide
marketing assistance and process credit card transactions. We will
not sell or otherwise disclose the information collected from you
to other third parties, except in those limited cases where we are
legally required to do so (such as in response to a court order,
or disclosure to a public body to assist in an investigation). We
will retain the information that we have collected from you only
so long as it is necessary to achieve our stated purposes or if it
is legally required that we retain such information.
6. Ensuring Accuracy
IDGLOBAL will make reasonable efforts to ensure that the information
we collect from you is accurate and complete. If you notice any
errors in the information that we have collected from you or wish
to update your information, please notify your IDGLOBAL contact.
You can advise us as to where you saw the incorrect information
so that we can then correct or update such information.

appropriate to the sensitivity of the information.
