Privacy Statement

Introduction

On January 1, 2004, the third phase of the Canadian Federal Law about Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) came into effect. This Act governs information collected as part of commercial activity by any private sector organization. It states that information must be gathered with consent, collected for a reasonable purpose, used for the limited purpose for which it was gathered, be accurate, be open for the owner's inspection and correction, and stored securely. Manage Your IT Ltd. (MyIT) already maintains a high level of security with respect to the confidentiality of your personal information but we are now obligated by law to advise and obtain consent to the terms of collection, disclosure and storage of your data.

The following outlines our 7  principles to which we adhere in protecting your personal information.

1. Accountability

MyIT is responsible to protect all personal information under its control. Personal information can include name, business address, department, phone number, Fax Number, e-mail address, credit card information and other information that relates to you as a client. MyIT has appointed a Privacy Officer, who is responsible for our accountability and compliance.

2. Identifying Purposes

The reasons client information is collected by MyIT include:

• Newsletter Subscription

Type of Information Collected

The type of information we collect from you relates to your activities related to our business only.

How it's Collected

Information is collected directly from you through surveys, online registration, and requests for information. It is also collected during your meeting with our sales people.

MyIT protects client information by security safeguards, which are appropriate to the sensitivity of the information. These include premises security; locked filing cabinets; information technology security such as restricted access to specific programs, firewalls and software security; and restricting access to client information only to those employees and partners to which it is necessary. We keep our employees up-to-date on policies and procedures regarding protecting client information.
