Your Access to and Control Over Information

By using the Services or submitting information to us in connection with using the Services, you are providing your consent to the collection, use, storage, disclosure and retention of personal information as set out in this Privacy Policy. Consent may be withdrawn at any time, subject to legal or contractual restrictions and reasonable notice; however, without such consent, Little Medical School may limit the Services it is able to provide you.

You can opt-out of receiving promotional emails by following the opt-out instructions in the promotional emails we send you.

Alternatively, you may let us know that you do not wish to receive some or all of these promotional communications by emailing or writing to us at the addresses provided on the “Contact Us” page.

Please note that if you opt-out of receiving promotional messages from us, we may still send you non-promotional communications, including emails about your accounts or purchases.

You can do the following at any time by contacting us via the email address or phone number given on our website:

See what data we have about you if any.
Change/correct any data we have about you.
Have us delete any data we have about you.
Express any concern you have about our use of your data.

Deleting your account

If you want to cancel or delete your account, you may do so in writing at the email in the “Contact Us” section. We will make every effort to promptly respond to your request. We will retain your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you Services, such as product returns or warranties. If you ask us to delete your account, we generally retain and use your account information only as long as necessary to fulfill a business or law enforcement need.

Security

We take reasonable efforts to ensure that any personal information you provide is maintained in a secure environment. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. While we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot warrant the security of any personal information you transmit to us or from our online services, and you do so at your own risk.

Little Medical School Ottawa has implemented and maintains reasonable and appropriate security measures, procedures and practices to protect against the loss and unauthorized access, use, modification, destruction or disclosure of your personal information while it is in our custody or under our control. For example, we use SSL encryption, firewalls, anti-virus and system security monitoring. Wherever we collect sensitive information (such as credit card data), that information is encrypted and transmitted to us in a secure way. You can verify this by looking for a padlock icon in the address bar and looking for “https” at the beginning of the address of the Web page.

While we use encryption to protect sensitive information transmitted online, we also protect your information offline. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, billing or customer service) are granted access to personally identifiable information. The computers/servers in which we store personally identifiable information are kept in a secure environment.

Storing and processing your information

Your personal information is stored and processed on servers owned by Little Medical School in Canada and the United States, and may in some cases be transferred to other countries. Where your information is transferred outside of Canada, it may be available to government authorities under lawful orders and laws applicable in those countries. Regardless of where your information is processed and regardless of the company or person who processes your information on our behalf, we will take steps to protect your information in accordance with applicable data protection laws and this Privacy Policy.

Storing website data is what we collect from our visitors like contact forms, registration sign-ups, and product purchases. All credit card information is routed through a third party processor and so no credit card information is stored on the website.

Links To Other Websites

Our Service may contain links to third-party websites or services that are not owned or controlled by Little Medical School – Ottawa. Clicking on those links or enabling those connections may allow third parties to collect or share data about you.

Little Medical School – Ottawa has no control over and assumes no responsibility for, the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party websites or services. You further acknowledge and agree that Little Medical School – Ottawa shall not be responsible or liable, directly or indirectly, for any damage or loss caused or alleged to be caused by or in connection with the use of or reliance on any such content, goods or services available on or through any such websites or services.
