Privacy policy

At NCI, the protection of your personal information is always a priority.  NCI' Policy regarding the collection, use and disclosure, if any, of personal information is defined according to the 10 principles covered in Canada's Pesonal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA).  Please see the section below on "Personal Information" for a list of the types of personal information which are subject to this policy and which we may collect from you when you do business with us.

1.Accountability

  • NCI is responsible for personal information under its control
  • NCI has a designated Privacy Officer who is accountable for our compliance with this Policy and all applicable privacy laws.
  • All NCI employees are responsible for day-to-day compliance.
  • When we use trusted third parties to act on our behalf by performing such functions as fulfilling orders, delivering packages, processing credit card payments or providing customer service, contractual or other appropriate means are used to ensure compliance, by such third parties, with this Policy and all applicable privacy laws.

2. Identifying Purposes

  • Unless the purpose is self-evident due to the nature of the transaction in question, NCI will identify the purposes for which personal information is collected at or before the time the information is collected.
  • The proposed purposes will be described in a reasonably understandable manner.
  • An example of a self-evident purpose is requesting the name and address of the person placing an order in order to ensure proper delivery.

3. Consent

  • We will collect, use or disclose your personal information only with your knowledge and consent, except where required or permitted by law.
  • NCI will not make your consent a requirement to the supply of a product or a service other than required to be able to supply the product or service.
  • Consent can be express or, in some circumstances, implied, and given in writing, by using or not using a check-off box, electronically, orally (in person or by telephone), or by your conduct, such as use of a product or service.
  • In determining the type of consent to obtain, NCI will consider all relevant factors, including the sensitivity of the information and your reasonable expectations.
  • You may withdraw your consent at any time, on reasonable notice, subject to legal or contractual restrictions. NCI will inform you of the implications of doing so.

4. Limiting Collection

  • The collection of personal information by NCI will be limited to what is necessary for the purposes which it identifies.
  • We will collect personal information by fair and lawful means.

5. Limiting Use, Disclosure, and Retention

  • Personal information will not be used or disclosed for purposes other than those for which it was collected, except with your consent or as required or permitted by law.
  • It will be retained only as long as necessary for these purposes or as required by law.

6. Accuracy

  • We will keep your personal information as accurate, complete and up-to-date as necessary for the purposes for which it is to be used.

7. Safeguards

  • NCI will protect personal information by security safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the information, including through the use of the following measures: physical (e.g., locked filing cabinets, restricted access, appropriate disposal of personal information), organizational (e.g., security clearances, access only on a "need to know" basis), technological (e.g., passwords, encryption) and training of employees. See Technology and Security.

8. Openness

  • Information about our policies and practices relating to the management of personal information will be made readily available to individuals.

9. Individual Access

  • Upon request, NCI will inform you of the existence, use and disclosure of personal information relating to you, and give you access to that information. You have the right to challenge the accuracy and completeness of your information and have it amended as appropriate.
  • However, in certain circumstances permitted by law, this information will not be disclosed to you. Some examples of these circumstances are information that contains references to other individuals, that cannot be disclosed for legal, security or commercial proprietary reasons, or that is subject to solicitor-client or litigation privilege.
