The Gestalt Institute of Toronto respects the privacy of all of its users and
is committed to protecting such privacy in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
This Privacy Policy explains the Gestalt Institute of Toronto 's
treatment of your personally identifiable information collected in
connection with your activities on or related to all Gestalt Institute
of Toronto websites referencing this Privacy Policy (the "Gestalt
Institute of Toronto Sites")
and all services made available on the Gestalt Institute of Toronto Sites
(collectively, unless noted otherwise, the " Gestalt Institute of
Toronto
Services"). This Privacy Policy also explains how you can ask questions and
make suggestions about our privacy practices and review and update your personal
information.
We urge you to read this Privacy Policy carefully and to check back periodically
as this Privacy Policy may change form time to time. Please note that this
Privacy Policy does not apply to the practices of companies or websites,
which are not owned or controlled by the Gestalt Institute of Toronto.
INFORMATION COLLECTED
In the course of operating the Gestalt Institute of Toronto Services, we
may collect two types of information about our users: Personal Information
and Non-Personal Information.
"Personal Information" is personally identifiable information, such as your name,
address, email address, birth date and gender. We collect Personal Information
when you choose to provide it to us when registering for a Gestalt Institute
of Toronto Service, entering a Gestalt Institute of Toronto promotion, or choosing
to receive a Gestalt Institute of Toronto information
package.
Business contact information such as the name, title, business address, email
address or telephone number of a business or professional person or an employee
of an organization is not considered Personal Information.
"Non-Personal Information" is information of an anonymous nature, such as an
Internet Protocol Address (IP Address), the domain used to access a Gestalt Institute
of Toronto Service, and the type and version of browser or operating system being
used. Aggregate information, such as demographic statistics of our users (e.g.
average age or geographical allocation of our users), number of visitors and
average time spent on a Gestalt Institute of Toronto Service, is also considered
Non-Personal Information.
Non-Personal Information is collected or derived by us in the course of operating
the Gestalt Institute of Toronto Services. For example, our Web servers may
automatically collect Non-Personal Information, which is provided through
your browser or stored on a Cookie when you choose to visit a Gestalt Institute
of Toronto Site.
For each visitor to our Web page, our Web server automatically recognizes
the consumer's domain name and e-mail address (where possible). This information
is not collected for any use other than to troubleshoot problems with the
web server and keep statistics.
The information we collect is used to improve the content of our Web page
and/or Gestalt Institute of Toronto Services and only used to contact our
users who have requested us to do so via opt-in mailing lists.
If you do not want to receive e-mail from us in the future, please let us
know by or writing to info@gestalt.on.ca.
DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
We will not sell or rent your Personal Information to anyone. We will only
disclose your Personal Information to third parties:
* Where you have specifically given us your consent to disclose your Personal
Information for a designated purpose;
* Who are acting on our behalf as our agents, suppliers or service providers,
solely to enable us to more efficiently provide you with the Gestalt Institute
of Toronto Services. Such entities act under strict contractual controls,
requiring them to maintain the confidentiality of all such Personal Information
and to use such information solely for purposes related to the provision
of the Gestalt Institute of Toronto Services;
* As may be set out in the Terms and Conditions applicable to a Gestalt Institute
of Toronto Service, to facilitate the provision of such Gestalt Institute
of Toronto Service, such as fulfilling legal requirements;
* As required by law, including by an order of any court, institution or
body with jurisdiction or authority to compel the production of information,
or in order to protect or defend a legal interest; or
LINKS TO OTHER SITES AND ADVERTISEMENTS
A Gestalt Institute of Toronto Site may contain links to other websites and
services. While we try to link only to sites and services that share our
high standards and respect for privacy, please understand that we are not
responsible for the content of, or the privacy practices employed by, other
companies or websites. This Privacy Policy applies only to the Gestalt
Institute of Toronto Services referencing this Privacy Policy.
SECURITY
The security of your Personal Information is important to us. Gestalt Institute
of Toronto takes technical, contractual, administrative, and physical security
steps to protect Personal Information that you provide to us. We instruct
our employees with access to your Personal Information that it is to be used
only in adherence with the principles set forth in this Privacy Policy and
the laws applicable to each specific business.
You can help protect the security of your Personal Information as well. For
instance, never give out your password, since this is what is used to access
your Account or Registration Information. Also remember to log out of your
account and close your browser window when you finish using a Gestalt Institute
of Toronto Service or surfing the Web, so that other people using the same
computer won't have access to your information.
CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY
Gestalt Institute of Toronto may from time to time change its Privacy Policy
as new Gestalt Institute of Toronto Services are added or old ones changed.
Changes will be effective when notice of such change is posted at a Gestalt
Institute of Toronto Site. Please check this Privacy Policy regularly for
updates by checking the date of "Last Update" at the top of this document.
From time to time, we may use customer information for new, unanticipated
uses not previously disclosed in our privacy notice. If our information
practices change at some time in the future we will post the policy
changes to our Web site to notify you of these changes and provide
you with the ability to opt out of these new uses. If you are concerned
about how your information is used, you should check back at our
Web site periodically.
If you feel that this site is not following its stated information policy,
you may contact us at the above addresses or phone number.
