VI. OUR WEBSITE 

You can visit our websites (www.lexlocom.ca) without telling us who you are or revealing any information about yourself, including your e-mail address. Our web server may collect information related to your visit to our website, including the IP address and domain used to access our site, the type and version of your browser, the website you came from to access our site, the page you entered and exited at, any website page that is viewed by that IP address and what country you are from. We use this information to monitor our website’s performance (such as number of visits, average time spent, page views) and for our business purposes such as working to continually upgrade our website. 

When you apply for a position on our website, we imply that you have consented to the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information for the purposes of recruitment and placement by LexLocom Recruitment Limited. 

VII. WHO HAS ACCESS TO YOUR INFORMATION? 

We share your personal information with our employees, contractors, consultants and other parties who require such information to assist us with establishing, maintaining and managing our relationship with you, including: third parties that provide services to us or on our behalf; third parties that collaborate with us in the provision of services to you; and third parties whose services we use to perform our services. 

In addition, personal information may be disclosed or transferred to another party in the event of a change in ownership of, or a grant of a security interest in, all or a part of LexLocom Recruitment Limited through, for an example, an asset or share sale, or some other form of business combination, merger or joint venture, provided that such party is bound by appropriate agreements or obligations and required to use or disclose your personal information in a manner consistent with the use and disclosure provisions of this Policy, unless you consent otherwise. 

VIII. YOUR CONSENT IS IMPORTANT TO US 

It is important to us that where we collect, use or disclose your personal information we have your consent to do so. Depending on the sensitivity of the personal information, your consent may be implied, deemed (using an opt-out mechanism) or express. Express consent can be given orally, electronically or in writing. Implied consent is consent 

that can reasonably be inferred from your action or inaction. For example, if you submit a resume or other personal information by mail, fax, or e-mail, whether in response to an advertisement or to LexLocom Recruitment Limited in general, we will assume your consent to the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information for purposes related to your recruitment and placement by LexLocom Recruitment Limited. 

You may change or withdraw your consent at any time, subject to legal or contractual restrictions and reasonable notice, by contacting our Officer using the contact information set out below. In some circumstances, a change in or withdrawal of consent may severely limit our ability to provide services to, or acquire products or services from, you. All communications with respect to such withdrawal or variation of consent should be in writing and addressed to your consultant or our Officer. 

IX. PROTECTING PERSONAL INFORMATION 

We understand the importance of protecting your personal information. For that reason LexLocom Recruitment Limited endeavours to maintain physical, technical and procedural safeguards that are appropriate to the sensitivity of the personal information in question. These safeguards are designed to prevent your personal information from loss and unauthorized access, copying, use, modification or disclosure. 

Documents which contain personal information are kept in filing cabinets which are maintained in each of our regional offices. All electronic information is stored on our server which is maintained in Toronto. 

IMPORTANT: Please be advised that all data is now stored and transferred on our database, with a cloud provider who stores data outside of Canada, Namely, it is a United States cloud service provider. The transfer of personal information does not entitle LexLocom Recruitment Limited to use that information for purposes other than those for which you have expressly or impliedly consented. LexLocom Recruitment Limited remains accountable for the protection of the personal information that has been transferred. The organization we have hired, receiving the personal information provides a comparable level of data security as would be required under Canadian law. Thus, your personal information will be transferred outside of Canada for processing and storage, and your personal information will be subject to the laws of the foreign jurisdiction. 

X. IS YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION ACCURATE? 

Please let us know if you believe that your personal information is inaccurate. You have the right to ask for it to be corrected or updated. We may ask you to provide documentation to support your request for correction or updating. If we do not agree with your request, we will include your request in our file.

You have the right to see your personal information held by LexLocom Recruitment Limited. If you would like to see your personal information we ask that you fill out and submit an Access to Information Form. This form may be found on our website or by contacting your consultant or our Officer. 

When requesting access to your personal information, please note that we may request specific information from you to enable us to confirm your identity and right to access, as well as to search for and provide you with the personal information that we hold about you. We may charge you a fee to access your personal information; however, we will advise you of any fee in advance. If you require assistance in preparing your request, please contact your consultant or our Officer. 

Your right to access the personal information that we hold about you is not absolute. There are instances where applicable law or regulatory requirements allow or require us to refuse to provide some or all of the personal information that we hold about you. In addition, the personal information may have been destroyed, erased or made anonymous in accordance with our record retention obligations and practices.
