Welcome to www.tradeyourstuffonline.com brought to you by TRADEYOURSTUFFONLINE INC. (the “TYSO”). At TYSO we understand that protecting the personal information of our members is extremely important. We are committed to meeting the privacy standards established by the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (

Canada

) ("PIPEDA") and we have adopted this Privacy Policy to ensure that personal information in our control is protected by appropriate means[*].

We are responsible for all personal information in our control, including any personal information we disclose to third parties for processing or other administrative functions. We have established policies and procedures to comply with this Privacy Policy. We have informed our staff with respect to PIPEDA and our policies and procedures.

Overall responsibility for compliance with the provisions of this Privacy Policy rests with our Privacy Officer. If you have any questions or concerns about your personal information or this Privacy Policy please contact our Privacy Officer at:
Email: administrator@tradeyourstuffonline.com

We use your personal information to communicate with you, adjudicate your eligibility for products and services, offer, set up, manage and administer our products and services, and generally fulfill our legal and regulatory requirements. We may survey your opinions of current products or services or of potential new products or services that may be offered.

As we continue to develop and grow, we may buy or sell parts of our business. As an important part of our businesses include the relationships with our members, employees and contractors, personal information would generally be one of the assets which would be transferred or transitioned to a third party purchaser.

We may collect anonymous/non-personal information and business information or render anonymous information we have about you. Because this information cannot be associated with or traced back to you, it is not governed by this Privacy Policy.

Typical information that we collect includes: your name, mailing address, e-mail address, phone number(s), gender, referral source, date of birth, sex, payment method information, credit card information, order history and feedback.

Subject to legal and contractual requirements, you can refuse to consent to our collection, use or disclosure of your personal information, or you may withdraw your consent to our further collection, use or disclosure of information at any time in the future by giving us reasonable notice. If you refuse or withdraw your consent, we may not be able to provide you or continue to provide you with some products, services or information which may be of value to you. During the term of any agreement you have with us, you may not withdraw your consent to our ongoing collection, use or disclosure of your personal information in connection with such agreement.

We will limit the collection of personal information to that which is necessary for the purposes we have identified to you, using means which are fair and lawful. Although we will collect your personal information primarily from you, we may also collect it from external sources.

We retain personal information only as long as it is required for the reasons it was collected. The length of time personal information is retained varies depending on the purpose for which the information was collected. This period may extend beyond the end of your relationship with us but only for so long as it is legally necessary for us to have sufficient information to respond to any issue that may arise at a later date. When your information is no longer needed for the purposes it has been collected, we have procedures to destroy, delete, erase or convert it to an anonymous form.

We will keep your personal information as accurate, complete and up-to-date as necessary for the purposes for which it is used. We will update personal information only if it is necessary for the purposes for which it was collected and if the information is used on an ongoing basis. We will also rely on you for keeping certain personal information accurate, complete, and current, such as a change in address.

Despite our efforts, errors sometimes do occur. Should you identify that we hold incorrect or out-of-date personal information about you, we will make the proper changes. Where appropriate, we will communicate these changes to other parties who may have unintentionally received incorrect personal information from us.

We protect personal information with security safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the information to protect personal information against loss or theft, unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use, or modification. Our safeguards vary depending on the information's sensitivity, amount, distribution and format of the information and the method of storage. We use a variety of security technologies and procedures to help safeguard your personal information. For example, personal information which TYSO holds electronically is on password protected computer systems with limited access that are located in controlled facilities. Paper-based files are kept in controlled facilities and access is restricted on a need to know basis. All security measures are appropriate to the sensitivity level of your information.

We inform our staff about the importance of maintaining the confidentiality of personal information. As a condition of employment, our staff are required to abide by our policies and procedures and they are prohibited from disclosing any personal information except as is necessary to carry on their employment duties.

In instances where personal information is provided to third parties for assisting us in providing goods or services to you, we generally require the third party to safeguard all personal information in a way that is consistent with this Privacy Policy, or as regulated by law and we only give to the third party the personal information necessary to perform those services. Further, the third party is prohibited from using that information for any other purpose.

Upon written request, we will inform you of the existence, use, and disclosure of your personal information and will afford access to that information upon payment of any applicable charges. Please note that there are certain instances prescribed by law where we may not be able to provide personal information.

We may amend this Privacy Policy at any time and such change will become effective upon us making our updated Privacy Policy available to the public on our website at www.tradeyourstuffonline.com.
