2. IDENTIFYING PURPOSES

ISQsolutions will identify the purposes for which personal information is collected at or before the time the information is collected.

2.1 ISQsolutions collects personal information only for the following purposes (identified purposes):

(a) to provide service(s) and/or products to its customers;

(b) to maintain commercial relations and to communicate with its customers (which will include, but not be limited to: billing, collection, advertising, promotion, account verification);

(c) to identify customer needs and/or preferences;

(d) to meet legal and regulatory requirements;

(e) to administer and manage its business operations

2.2 ISQsolutions will provide notice of the identified purposes either orally, electronically or writing prior to or at the time of collection of the personal information.

2.3 In order to open a hosting account or to register a domain name at ISQsolutions an individual is required to provide corporate or personal information by way of an electronic online form. To register a domain name corporate or personal information is required by the relevant registry of the TLD (top level domain) for which the individual apply to register a domain name through ISQsolutions. This information may include but not be limited to company name, full name, mailing address, email address, contact information, registrant, billing, administrative, technical contacts and credit card details.

2.4 Use of personal information by third parties or as required by the relevant TLD registries, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) the international governing body for TLDs (Top Level Domains) requires that registrars must make available the corporate or personal information collected from the individual when the individual apply to register a domain name to the public through the publicly accessible database known as the Whois Database. This is a public policy adopted by the domain name industry as a whole. 

2.5 On occasion, ISQsolutions may engage third party companies or individuals to perform services on our behalf. Our relationships with such third party companies are governed by our contracts with them. Those companies are required to hold your personal information strictly confidential. 

2.6 ISQsolutions will use personal information to advise its customers of any information relating to the services provided to them through ISQsolutions. This includes but is not limited to notices for renewal of services, of system upgrades or any information relevant to the product and service. Occasionally, ISQsolutions will communicate to the customer special bonus and new product offers that we think may be of value to the customer. If the customer wishes to opt-out of receiving targeted communications from ISQsolutions in electronic, printed or verbal format (other than information included with their renewal notice or monthly billing), simply inform ISQsolutions in writing at Privacy Office, ISQ Solutions Inc., 130 Spadina Avenue, Suite 602, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5V 2L4 or by fax to 416-703-4802.

2.7 When personal information that has been collected is to be used for a purpose not previously identified, the new purpose will be identified prior to use. Unless the new purpose is required by law, ISQsolutions will obtain the consent of the individual before information is used for that new purpose.

3. CONSENT

The knowledge and consent of the individual are required for the collection, use or disclosure of personal information, except where inappropriate.

3.1 In certain circumstances, personal information can be collected, used, or disclosed without the knowledge and consent of the individual. For example, legal, medical or security reasons may make it impossible or impractical to seek consent. When information is being collected for the detection and prevention of fraud or for law enforcement, seeking the consent of the individual might defeat the purpose of collecting the information. Seeking consent may be impossible or inappropriate when there is an emergency threatening the individuals life, health or security, or where the individual is a minor, seriously ill, or mentally incapacitated. In other instances, information may be publicly available. Moreover, ISQsolutions may provide personal information to its lawyer or agent to collect a debt, comply with a subpoena, warrant or other court order, government institution requesting the information upon lawful authority, or as may be otherwise required by law.

3.2 ISQsolutions will generally seek consent for the use or disclosure of the information at the time of collection. In certain circumstances, consent with respect to use or disclosure may be sought after the information has been collected but before use (for example, when ISQsolutions wants to use information for a purpose not previously identified).

3.3 ISQsolutions will make a reasonable effort to ensure that the individual is advised of the purposes for which the information will be used. To make the consent meaningful, the purposes will be stated in such a manner that the individual can reasonably understand how the information will be used or disclosed.

3.4 ISQsolutions will not, as a condition of the supply of a product or service, require an individual to consent to the collection, use, or disclosure of information beyond that required to fulfill the explicitly specified and legitimate purposes.

3.5 The form of consent sought by ISQsolutions may vary, depending upon the circumstances and the type of information disclosed. In determining the form of consent to use, ISQsolutions will take into account the sensitivity of the information and the reasonable expectations of the individual. An authorized representative (such as a legal guardian or a person having power of attorney) can also give consent. 

ISQsolutions will seek express consent when the information is likely to be considered sensitive. 

Implied consent will generally be appropriate when the information is less sensitive. The use of services or products by a customer or the acceptance of employment by an employee will be considered implied consent to collect, use and disclose personal information for all identified purposes. 

3.6 An individual may withdraw consent at any time, subject to legal or contractual restrictions and reasonable notice. ISQsolutions will inform the individual of the implications of such withdrawal. In order to withdraw consent, an individual must provide notice to ISQsolutions in writing.

3.7 With respect to personal information already collected by ISQsolutions prior to the publication of this Privacy Policy, this Policy will constitute reasonable notice to ISQsolutions current customers and employees of the purposes and uses for which such personal information has been collected. Should an individual object to these ongoing uses or disclosures, consent may be withdrawn upon providing notice to ISQsolutions in writing.
