The Milton
Chamber of Commerce Privacy Code
Protecting
the confidentiality of your personal information has always been an important
part of the way we do business. To ensure that we protect your privacy,
the Milton Chamber of Commerce has adopted a Privacy Code. This Code sets
out how and why we collect and use personal information about our customers.
It also explains limited circumstances under which we may need or be required
to disclose it.
"Personal
information" means information that identifies you as a specific individual.
It does not include the sort of general information that could be found
in a business directory or a telephone book.
Effective
January 1, 2004, the Government of Canada will implement the last phase
of the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA).
This federal statute will then apply to insurance companies and many other
industry sectors.
This legislation
establishes rules and principles for the use and disclosure of personal
information based on the ten privacy principles developed by the Canadian
Standards Association. These principles recognize that we live in an era
when commercial information is exchanged and circulated by electronic means.
It balances the individual's right to privacy in their personal information
with the reasonable need of organizations to collect, use or disclose personal
information.
Under the
new legislation, an organization may collect, use or disclose personal
information only for limited purposes that a reasonable person would consider
to be appropriate in the circumstances.
The Personal
Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act requires us to provide
the same safeguards for your privacy that we have always provided on a
voluntary basis. Our Privacy Code sets out these principles in simple terms.
It explains how we ensure that your privacy and the confidentiality of
your personal information are protected.
Our Privacy
Code
The Milton
Chamber of Commerce Privacy Code is based on the following ten principles
adopted by the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Act (PIPEDA).
Principle
#1: Our Accountability for the Collection, Use or Disclosure of Personal
Information
As a customer
of Medical Paradigm, you have a right to expect that your insurer is accountable
for the personal information it collects and uses. "Customer" means a current
and former insured, an applicant for insurance, a claimant under one of
our policies as well as an individual insured as part of a group or corporate
policy.
We are responsible
for maintaining and protecting your personal information while it is under
our control. This includes any personal information that may need to be
disclosed to third parties for processing or other administrative functions.
To help ensure
the confidentiality of your personal information, we have established policies
and procedures to ensure that we comply with the Personal Information Protection
and Electronic Act. We have designated a privacy officer who is responsible
for our company's compliance with the ten privacy principles by the Canadian
Standards Association.
If you have
any questions or inquiries about how your personal information is stored,
or when it may need to be disclosed to others, our privacy officer is there
to assist and explain our policies to you. |
