Scouts Canada Scout Shop Privacy Policy
Scouts Canada is committed to respecting the confidentiality of the personal information that you have provided to us in the exercise of our commercial activities. Scouts Canada is further committed to ensuring that your personal information is collected, used, held and disclosed in a manner that respects your privacy rights.
Scouts Canada will use the provided personal information only for purposes for which it was collected and will not disclose the information for other purposes except as required by applicable law.
To protect your personal and credit card information when you purchase an item, the Scout Shop On-Line Store encrypts and transmits the data using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology and 256-bit RSA encryption. This technology is used by millions of ecommerce web sites, and other sites which accept personal information. It is a protocol developed to ensure secure Internet transactions, and represents the industry standard for security. Secure Sockets Layer works by using a private key to encrypt data that is transferred over the SSL connection. Your purchase data is only decrypted at the point when we are ready to charge your credit card and ship your order; so you may feel doubly secure.
Under no circumstances will Scouts Canada sell, rent or allow any individual or corporation to use any of the personal information that we collect from our online transactions. The information that we collect could include: your name, mailing address, e-mail address, telephone number, fax number and credit card information. This data will be used only for the completion of a sales transaction, product shipment or a customer catalogue request. Any marketing information that is provided to Scouts Canada by our commercial clientele will be handled with the same guidelines as mentioned above.
Access to customers' personal information will be limited only to those employees who need to execute a business function. Internal safeguards are in place to insure that your personal information will not be compromised and that it will only be retained for the purpose that it was collect or obtained.
