We take steps to ensure that the Personal Information that we collect about you is adequate, relevant, not excessive, and used for limited purposes.
This Privacy Policy DOES NOT apply to information that we collect offline or through any other means, or that you provide to or is collected by any third party (including our affiliates and subsidiaries) through any application or content (including advertising) that may link to or be accessible from or via any of our Websites and Apps.
Unless otherwise stated, the terms used in this Privacy Policy have the same meaning as in our Terms and Conditions of Use. Be sure to return regularly to this page for the latest version of the Privacy Policy. We reserve the right at any time, in our sole discretion and without any liability, to update or modify the Privacy Policy without notice, and your continued access to or use of the Services means that you agree to the Privacy Policy. If we change the Privacy Policy, we will update the “Last Updated Date” at the top of the document. By continuing to access or use the Services, you indicate that you agree to be bound by the Privacy Policy. If the Privacy Policy does not seem acceptable to you, please do not use the Services.

Information we collect about you

When you use the Services, we collect and use several types of information from and about you, including:
Non-Personal Information: information that does not directly or indirectly reveal your identity or directly relate to an identifiable individual, such as demographic information, or statistical or aggregated information. Statistical or aggregated data does not directly identify a specific person, but we may derive non-personal statistical or aggregated data from Personal Information. For example, we may aggregate Personal Information to calculate the percentage of users accessing any specific feature from any of our Websites or Apps. This type of information will not allow you to be personally identified.
Personal Information: “personal information” is generally defined as any information about an identifiable individual, which includes information that can be used on its own or with other information to identify, contact, or locate a single person. To use the Services, you must first provide such personal information that will allow you to be identified (“Personal Information”).

For certain parts of the Services, such as creating an account, we collect Personal Information that you voluntarily provide to us using the Services, and could include information such as your name, email address, telephone number, mailing address, date of birth and personal information in relation to your health. We may obtain Personal Information about you through other third parties, such as when you register with such party to participate in any of the Services they offer via their website or their mobile application.  We may also automatically import some of the Personal Information that you provide to such third parties into your account to use our Services. Our Websites, their subdomains and our Apps may also include links to third-party websites, plug-ins, services, social networks, or applications. Clicking on those links or enabling or accepting those connections may allow such third parties to collect or share data about you. If you follow a link to a third-party website or engage a third-party plugin or service, please note that these third parties have their own privacy policies and we do not accept any responsibility or liability for these policies. We do not control these third-party websites or services, and we encourage you to read the privacy policy of each one before visiting, enabling or accepting.

Sharing Information

We do not sell, rent or disclose to third parties the information we collect and store. You can expect us to share the information collected with other parties as follows:
  • Affiliated Service Providers: We have agreements with various third-party affiliated service providers to facilitate the delivery of our Services, where we may share the information we have collected. All the administrative service providers we use are required to have the same level of privacy protection as ours. Therefore, we expect your information to be treated with the same level of attention that we use.

However, under no circumstances will these transactions permit the use of your information for purposes other than those for which you have given us your consent.

Transferring your Personal Information

We may transfer personal information that we collect or that you provide as described in this Privacy Policy to contractors, service providers, and other third parties we use to support our business (such as analytics and search engine providers that assist us with the improvement and optimization or our Websites and Apps) and who are contractually obligated to keep Personal Information confidential, use it only for the purposes for which we disclose it to them, and to process the Personal Information with the same standards set out in this Privacy Policy.
We may process, store, and transfer your Personal Information in and to countries other than Canada, with different privacy laws that may or may not be as comprehensive as Canadian law. In these circumstances, the governments, courts, law enforcement, or regulatory agencies of that country may be able to obtain access to your personal information through the laws of the foreign country. Whenever we engage a service provider, we require that its privacy and security standards adhere to this policy and applicable Canadian privacy legislation.
In addition, our Services may integrate with online platforms of third parties that provide marketing and management tools to companies to help us deliver the Services to you, which means in such cases that your Personal Information may be shared with such third parties to provide the Services.
By submitting your Personal Information or engaging with any of our Websites or Apps, you consent to this transfer, storage, or processing.

Third Parties Authorized to Receive Personal Information

Third-party service providers have their own privacy policies and terms of service, and we do not accept any responsibility or liability for these policies. We do not control these third-party services, and we encourage you to review the privacy policies and terms of service of each one that you use.

Data Security

The security of your Personal Information is very important to us. We use physical, electronic, and administrative measures designed to secure your Personal Information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration, and disclosure.

Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password for access to certain parts or features of our Websites and/or Apps, you are responsible for keeping such password confidential. We ask you not to share your password with anyone.
Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the Internet is not completely secure. Although we do our best to protect your Personal Information, we cannot guarantee the security of your Personal Information transmitted via our Websites or Apps. Any transmission of Personal Information is at your own risk. We are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on our Websites or within our Apps.

Data Retention

We reserve the right to use such anonymous and de-identified data for any legitimate business purpose without further notice to you or your consent.

Employees, Agents and Self-Contractors

HALEO employs other companies and / or individuals to perform functions on its behalf.
