If you are located in the EU or UK, this section applies to you.
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and UK GDPR require us to explain the valid legal bases we rely on to process your personal information. Thus, we may rely on the following legal bases to process your personal information:
- Consent. We may process your information if you have given us permission (i.e., consent) to use your personal information for a specific purpose. You can withdraw your consent at any time.
- Performance of a Contract. We may process your personal information when we believe it is necessary for the performance of our contractual obligations to you, including providing our Services, or at your request before entering into a contract with you.
- Legitimate Interests. We may process your information when we believe it is reasonably necessary to achieve our legitimate business interests and those interests do not outweigh your interests and fundamental rights and freedoms. For example, we may process your personal information for some of the purposes described below to develop and display personalized and relevant advertising content to our users.
- Legal Obligations. We may process your information if we believe it is necessary to comply with our legal obligations, such as cooperating with law enforcement or regulatory authorities, exercising or defending our legal rights, or disclosing your information as evidence in litigation in which we are involved.
- Vital Interests. We may process your information if we believe it is necessary to protect your vital interests or the vital interests of a third party, such as in situations involving potential threats to the safety of any person.
If you are located in Canada, this section also applies to you.
We may process your information if you have given us specific permission (i.e., express consent) to use your personal information for a specific purpose, or in situations where your permission can be inferred (i.e., implied consent). You can withdraw your consent at any time.
In some exceptional cases, we may be allowed by law to process your information without your consent, including, for example, if:
- The collection of information is clearly in the interests of the individual and consent cannot be obtained in a timely way
- For investigations and fraud detection and prevention
- For business transactions provided certain conditions are met
- If it is contained in witness statements and the collection is necessary to assess, process, or settle an insurance claim
- For identifying injured, ill, or deceased persons and communicating with next of kin
- If we have reasonable grounds to believe that the individual has been, is, or may be a victim of financial abuse
- If there is reason to believe that the collection with consent would undermine the availability or accuracy of the information, and the collection is reasonable for investigating a breach of an agreement or a contravention of the laws of Canada or a province
- If disclosure is necessary to comply with a subpoena, warrant, court order, or rules of the court relating to the production of records
- If the information was created by the individual in the course of their employment, business, or profession, and the collection is consistent with the purposes for which the information was created
- If the collection is solely for journalistic, artistic, or literary purposes
- If the information is publicly available and specified by the regulations
