The GDC respects the privacy rights of visitors to our web sites and is committed to protecting the information and email databases we maintain. To further this commitment, we have adopted a corporate Online Privacy Policy and maintain reasonable safeguards in an effort to ensure the security, integrity and privacy of the personal information we collect. Personal information collected by the GDC is stored in secure operating environments and access to that information is limited to employees who need the information to provide you with our products or services.
 
Note that when you click on a hyperlink displayed on our web site, you may be leaving the GDC’s web site and entering another web site for which this Privacy Policy does not apply. You should carefully review the privacy statements or policies on any other site that you visit or wish to send e-mail to because those privacy statements or policies will apply to your visit and e-mail sent to that site and may be very different from the GDC’s Privacy Policy.
 
To the extent an online form or an e-mail submitted by a user contains personal information, we will only use such personal information to the extent it is necessary to respond to any comment or question from such user. We will limit access to such personal information and will keep such personal information in a secure system. Although most online forms and e-mail messages submitted by users are deleted after we respond, in certain cases hard copies or data extracts may be kept on file. Any such copy or any such information, to the extent it is personal, will also be stored in a secure location.
 
The GDC tracks information regarding each visit to our web site such as which pages are visited most often, how long a visitor spends on our site, if they experience any errors while visiting, and other information that does not personally identify you but that helps us deliver a more informative and interesting online experience. We deliver requested email communications to permission email lists only (opt-in) and ensure that an unsubscribe option is always allowed with every communication for easy opt-out.
 
All claims, disputes or disagreements which may arise out of the interpretation, performance or in any way relating to your use of this site and any and all other GDC site(s), shall be submitted exclusively to the jurisdiction of the Courts of the Province of British Columbia.
