At Gogobuys we recognize that privacy is important.
Internal Uses
We collect, store and process your personal information
on servers located in Canada.
We use the information we collect about you in order
:
| 1) |
to provide our services and process
your transactions, |
| 2) |
to provide customer service, |
| 3) |
to determine your eligibility to
receive offers for special features or products,
|
| 4) |
to improve our products and services.
and |
| 5) |
at your option (as indicated on our
online forms), we use the information you provide
to access specific third party services on your
behalf and perform the actions that you request
us to perform, such as invoicing. |
We give access to individually identifiable information
about our users only to those employees who require
it to fulfill customer service requests.
Disclosure to Third Parties
Gogobuys will not sell or rent any of your personally
identifiable information to third parties. Gogobuys
will not share any of your personally identifiable information
with third parties except in the limited circumstances
described below, or with your express permission. These
third parties are limited by law or by contract from
using the information for secondary purposes beyond
the purposes for which the information is shared.
| 1) |
We share information with companies
that help us process the transactions you request
and protect our customers' transactions from fraud,
such as sharing your credit card number with a service
that screens for lost and stolen card numbers. Additionally,
if you go into a negative balance and owe us money,
we may share information with processing companies
including collection agencies.
|
| 2) |
We disclose information that we in
good faith believe is appropriate to cooperate in
investigations of fraud or other illegal activity,
or to conduct investigations of violations of our
User Agreement. For example, this means that if
we conduct a fraud investigation and conclude that
one side has engaged in deceptive practices, we
can give that person or entity's contact information
(but not bank account or credit card information)
to victims who request it. |
| 3) |
We disclose information in response
to a subpoena, warrant, court order, levy, attachment,
order of a court-appointed receiver or other comparable
legal process, including subpoenas from private
parties in a civil action. |
| 4) |
We share aggregated statistical data
with our business partners or for public relations.
For example, we may disclose that a specific percentage
of our users live in Ontario. However, this aggregated
information is not tied to personally identifiable
information. |
| 5) |
We share your information with our
parent, subsidiaries and joint ventures to help
coordinate the services we provide to you, enforce
our terms and conditions, and promote trust and
safety. |
