Individuals are entitled to challenge the accuracy and completeness of his or her personal information that is under our control and request that it be amended, if appropriate.
10. Handling Enquiries or Complaints : Any questions or enquiries concerning compliance with our privacy policies and procedures may be addressed to our Privacy Officer, as set out below.

Personal information may be used:

1. to understand and assess our Clients’ ongoing needs and offer products and services to meet those needs;
2. to determine eligibility for products and services;
3. to provide requested information, products or services;
4. for billing and accounting services relating to our products and services:
5. for Client communication, service and administration;
6. to meet insurance requirements for transport;
7. for internal, external and regulatory audit purposes; or
8. to comply with legal and regulatory requirements.

Personal information may also be used for other purposes, subject to obtaining your prior consent for such use.

Consent may be obtained in various ways. We may obtain your express consent or we may determine that consent has been implied by the circumstances. Express consent could be given in writing, electronically, or verbally in person or over the telephone. When we receive personal information from you that enables us to provide you with a requested product or service, your consent to allow us to deal with that personal information in a reasonable manner would be implied.

Providing us with your personal information is always your choice. When you request products or services from us, we ask that you provide information that enables us to respond to your request. In doing so, you consent to our collection, use and disclosure to appropriate third parties of such personal information as necessary for these purposes. You also authorize us to use and retain this personal information for as long as it may be required for the purposes described above. Your consent remains valid even after the termination of our relationship with you, unless you provide us with written notice that such consent is withdrawn. In the event that we want to use or disclose your personal information for a purpose not previously identified, your personal information will not be used or disclosed for this new purpose unless we obtain your consent.

There are certain legal exceptions where we will not need to obtain consent or explain the purposes for the collection, use or disclosure of personal information. For example, this exception would apply if there is an emergency that threatens the life, health or security of an individual, or if we must comply with a court order.

As TAKING IT MOBILE continues to develop and grow, we may buy or sell parts of a business. Information regarding the particular accounts or services being purchased or sold could include personal information and be one of the transferred business assets.

In certain circumstances, we may be required to provide personal information to third parties for legal or regulatory purposes.

Despite our best efforts, errors sometimes do occur. If you identify any personal information that is out-of-date, incorrect or incomplete, please let us know and we will make the corrections promptly and use every reasonable effort to communicate these changes to other parties who may have inadvertently received incorrect or out-of-date personal information from us.

Our service providers and agents are required to maintain Client confidentiality, and may not use your information for any unauthorized purpose. Employees are governed by strict standards and policies to ensure that personal information is secure and treated with the utmost care and respect. We maintain your personal information for so long as required to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected and for a reasonable period thereafter, or as may otherwise be required by law. After such time, or upon your request, your personal information will be destroyed, deleted, erased, or made anonymous to ensure that your identity is not compromised.

TAKING IT MOBILE’s websites may contain links to other third party sites that are not governed by this privacy policy. Although we endeavor to link only to sites with high privacy standards, our Privacy Policy will no longer apply once you leave our website. We are not responsible for privacy policies employed by third parties.
