Although the Naturally website(s) may collect high-level information about your location (for example, the longitude and latitude associated with your municipality), they do not collect precise geolocation without your consent.

Naturally uses “cookies”, a technology that installs a small amount of information on a website user’s computer, to permit Naturally website(s) to recognize future visits using that computer and to avoid having to register your contact information at each visit. Cookies enhance the convenience and use of Naturally website(s). For example, the information provided through cookies is used to recognize you as a previous user of Naturally website(s), to track your activity on Naturally’s website(s) and obtain general information about other websites you have visited, to respond to your needs, and to otherwise facilitate your experience on Naturally’s website(s). You may choose to decline cookies if your browser permits, but doing so may affect your use of Naturally’s website(s) and your ability to access certain features of Naturally’s website(s) or engage in transactions through our website(s).

Naturally also uses web cookies and pixel tags to track user behaviour on Naturally’s website(s) and to compile reports regarding user demographics, and website tracking patterns. Within Naturally’s applications, Naturally may also use analytic tools and automated tracking technology or methods. Naturally uses these tools to analyze and enhance the user experience.

Naturally may use third-party advertising networks to display advertising on Naturally’s website(s) or other websites. These advertising networks use cookies or similar technologies to track your navigation habits on our website(s) and third-party websites in order to serve you advertising that is customized to your inferred interests and preferences. For example, a cookie may be placed on your computer when you visit a Naturally website, which is recognized and used by third-party advertising networks to serve you with a Naturally and when you visit other websites within their advertising network. As described above, you may be able to set your browser to decline cookies. Where required by law, Naturally will ask for your consent before enabling such technologies. If you decline cookies, you may still receive online advertising; however, it may be less personalized. Some advertising networks participate in industry programs that include web pages to visit to opt-out. For example: http://youradchoices.ca/choices.

Transfers of Personal Information to Other Jurisdictions

Naturally may store your Personal Information within or outside of Canada.

In that case, Naturally uses reasonable safeguards to ensure that Naturally’s service providers protect your Personal Information wherever it is used or stored. When your Personal Information is used or stored in a jurisdiction other than where you reside, it may be subject to the law of that foreign jurisdiction, including any law permitting or requiring disclosure of the information to the government, government agencies, courts and law enforcement in that jurisdiction.

Consenting to Naturally’s Collection, Use and Disclosure of Your Personal Information

We will obtain your express consent prior to or when collecting, using, or disclosing your Personal Information for any purpose not described in this Policy, or for a purpose that was not identified to you nor reasonably expected at the time of collection, unless we are required or permitted by law not to obtain your consent.

We may rely on your implied consent in certain circumstances, after considering factors such as the sensitivity of the Personal Information and your reasonable expectations. We will limit the collection, use, and disclosure of your Personal Information to only that which is necessary for the purposes identified, unless you have otherwise consented, or when such collection, use, and/or disclosure is permitted or required by law.

You can always refuse to provide your Personal Information, except that it may prevent you from using our goods/services or receiving responses to your inquiries or other information of interest.

Protection of your Personal Information

Naturally retains your Personal Information only for as long as it is reasonably required for business or legal purposes. Naturally will protect your Personal Information in a manner that is consistent with and appropriate to the sensitivity of that Personal Information. For example, Naturally employs physical, technical and organizational measures to ensure its security and confidentiality.

Depending on the volume and sensitivity of the Personal Information, the purposes for which it is used and the format in which it is stored, Naturally implements a combination of measures to protect your Personal Information, including:

  • Internal practices that limit employee access to Personal Information;

We encourage you to review the privacy policies of our service providers and contractors for information on their privacy practices.

While Naturally takes all reasonable measures to safeguard your Personal Information, please note that no method of electronic transmission of Personal Information can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

The accuracy of the Personal Information we have about you is very important and we may rely on it to provide you with our services.

Such request must be in writing, signed by you, and include sufficient detail to enable us to identify any Personal Information in our custody or control in relation to the request. 

We will, as soon as reasonably practical and not later than thirty (30) days from our receipt of your request, or within such additional time as permitted or required by law, either correct the Personal Information and, if applicable and reasonable to do so, send correction notifications to any third party to whom we disclosed the incorrect Personal Information, or decide not to correct the Personal Information (i.e. if it is not shown to be factually inaccurate or incomplete), but we will annotate the Personal Information under our control to indicate that a correction was requested but not made.

We will inform you of the action that we have taken in response to your request for correction, the contact information of our Privacy Officer who can answer your questions about your request for correction, and that you may ask for a review of the action taken in accordance with applicable privacy legislation.
