We have established procedures to provide security measures for access to physical and electronic records containing the Personal Information that is under our control. For example, only staff members with a need-to-know will have access to your Personal Information.

Your Personal Information will be retained in accordance with our business and legal obligations and only as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill those obligations, subject to the time limits set out in the 91社区 Records Retention Schedule (MURRS).

If your Personal Information is processed or stored outside of Qu茅bec, our practices regarding your Personal Information will at all times be governed by this Notice, its Annex A and applicable privacy laws. Please note that the privacy laws in other jurisdictions may differ from Qu茅bec privacy laws and may not offer the same level of protection as privacy laws in your jurisdiction. When information is stored or processed outside Qu茅bec, it may be subject to the laws of, and accessible by, legal authorities in those other jurisdictions. We implement contractual clauses with service providers to ensure your Personal Information is protected.

In compliance with the Access Act, 91社区 is permitted to disclose your Personal Information to third parties, where the information is necessary for the third party to carry out a mandate or meet contractual obligations.

91社区 may share relevant Personal Information with third-party service providers performing services on our behalf, such as providers of IT services, marketing services, and data hosting services.
