Privacy Policy for Northly Risk Design Inc. O/A Northly Risk
Northly Risk has adopted global privacy principles which guide how we manage and protect personal data and demonstrate how fair information practices are embedded in our culture. As part of our commitment, we strive to protect the privacy of visitors to the website that we operate (the “Site”). You can navigate the majority of the Site without giving us any personal information which identifies you. However, sometimes we need additional information about you in order to provide you with information or services you want to receive from us. Northly Risk believes in transparency and we provide this notice so that you can understand our online information practices and the choices you can make about the way your information is collected and used.
The information we collect
Northly Risk collects two basic types of information:
-
Personally identifiable information - This is information that personally identifies one individual from another or enables you to be individually contacted (for example, names, e-mail addresses and other contact information). This information is voluntarily provided to us by Site visitors and is used by us for the purpose of responding to user submissions and fulfilling requests for further information about our services.
-
Aggregate user and tracking information - This information gives us insights on how Site visitors use our site. This data is anonymous and does not contain any personally identifiable information. We use this information to ensure that our website, e-mails and marketing efforts continue to appeal to Site visitors and clients.
​​
Information you voluntarily provide to Northly Risk
Northly Risk only collects personally identifiable information that you voluntarily provide, for example, when you use our “contact us” feature, sign up for a newsletter, submit an online form to "Get Started". Examples of such personally identifiable information that you provide to us may include, among other information, your name, organization, and email address.
​
Other information Northly Risk collects
When you visit this Site, our website provider may automatically collect some information about your visit using cookies, log analysis software and other tracking technologies. If you wish, you may set your browser to refuse cookies. However, by refusing to accept a cookie, you may not be able to access some pages or use some of the features or functions of the Site. Northly Risk cookie files do not contain personally identifiable information.
​
The way we use information
We store the information you provide in a secure database in order to provide you with the information, products, and/or services you request and may be used to provide you with additional information about our services we believe may be of interest to you. The information is stored for a time period and in a manner relevant to responding to your request unless you request that it be removed. The information you provide us will be shared with Northly Risk employees and service providers to the extent necessary to administrate our systems and/or accommodate your request. For example, if you provide your name, mailing address, telephone and/or email address and request more information about Northly Risk services, this information will be shared with appropriate Northly Risk personnel to fulfill your request. This information will not be shared with non-affiliated third parties without your consent.
​
We use non-identifying and aggregate information about the use of the Site to improve the navigation, content, and design of the Site. This information may include, for example, the most and least requested pages, analyzing traffic regarding specific features, and the number of users from Canada and other countries, among other things. Northly Risk will not distribute personally identifiable information collected from you outside of Northly Risk without your consent (subject to the limited exceptions stated in this policy).
​
Exceptions
Northly Risk may preserve and has the right to disclose any information about you or your use of the Site without your prior permission if Northly Risk has a good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) protect and defend the rights, property or safety of Northly Risk or its clients or their respective partners, employees, affiliates, other users of the Site, or the public; (b) enforce the Terms of Use for the Site; or (c) respond to claims related to your use of the Site. We may also disclose information as we deem necessary to satisfy any applicable law, regulation, legal process or lawful governmental request (including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements) or in the event of a sale or potential sale of Northly Risk or one of its business units.
Data security
Northly Risk understands that the safety of your personal information is extremely important to you. Accordingly, Northly Risk uses reasonable technological, physical and other measures to keep your information protected from loss, misuse and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration and destruction, taking into due account the risks involved in the processing and the nature of the personal information. Due to the nature of the Internet and related technology, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information and Northly Risk expressly disclaims any such obligation.
​
