Privacy Policy.

The Capital Hill Group (“CHG”/”we”/”us”) through the DisGovr and DisGovr Canada Platform, collects information in a number of ways when you visit the www.DisGovr.ca or www.DisGovrcanada.ca (the “Website”) and/or use the Services (as defined in the CHG Terms of Service). CHG collects “Personal Information” from users (“Users” or “you”) who register for the Service or request information about the Services such as name, address, phone number, and email address. For example, you provide us with Personal Information when you register for an account or contact us by email. We also automatically receive and record information from your browser, including your IP address and cookies. The Personal Information collected is used for billing, identification, authentication, service improvement, research, and contact. However, we reserve the right to capture usage data for diagnostic purposes, including, but not limited to, IP addresses and geolocation data.

 

Consent

By using or accessing the Services, you consent to the use and disclosure of your Personal Information as described in this Privacy Policy. Your Personal Information will not be used for any other purpose or disclosed further without your consent. You can withdraw your consent at any time but withdrawing consent may result in your inability to continue using certain features of the Services.

By submitting your personal data to us, you will be treated as having given your permission – where necessary and appropriate – for disclosures referred to in this policy. Under no circumstances will CHG sell, distribute or otherwise disclose personal information or contact lists to third parties. However, limited disclosure may be required as part of CHG fulfilling its stated business duties and day-to-day operations. This may include consultants, suppliers, or business partners of CHG, but only with the understanding that these parties obey and abide by this Privacy Policy, to the extent necessary of fulfilling their own business duties and day-to-day operations.

Please be assured that we will not use your information for any purposes if you have indicated that you do not wish us to use your information in this way when submitting the information.

 

 

Cookies

A cookie is a small amount of data that is sent to your browser from our servers and stored on your computer’s hard drive. We use cookies to access information when you sign in, store your preferences, and to keep you logged in within the Website. You can configure your browser to accept or reject these cookies. However, if you choose to reject cookies from the Website you will not be able to access the login required areas.

 

 

Collection of non-personal information

We may automatically collect non-personal information about you such as the type of interest browsers you use or the website from which you linked to our website. We may also aggregate details that you have submitted to the site. You cannot be identified from this information and it is only used to assist us in providing an effective service on this website. We may from time to time supply third parties with this non-personal or aggregated data for uses in connection with this website.

 

 

Information Sharing

Except for displaying your information on the Website to other Users, we do not sell, rent or share Personal Information or provide our database of User’s profiles to third parties without your prior consent. However, where an additional representative of a User (the “Additional Representative”) requests permission to administer that User’s profile, the email address of such additional representative shall be shared with the current verified representatives of that User in order to verify the authenticity of the Additional Representative. If a verified representative of the User requests that we take down their profile, we will do so within a reasonable period of time.

We reserve the right to disclose your personally identifiable information as required by law and when we believe that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights and/or to comply with a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process served on the Website or CHG. We may also disclose your Personal Information in connection with a corporate re-organization, a merger or amalgamation with another entity, a sale of all or a substantial portion of our assets or stock, including any due diligence exercise carried out in relation to the same, provided that the information disclosed continues to be used for the purposes permitted by this Privacy Policy by the entity acquiring the information.

 

Third Party Sites & Links

The Services may include links to third-party websites and advertisements. We have no control over third-party websites and the provision of links in no way constitutes an endorsement, authorization or representation of our connection to that third party. If you access third-party sites using links from the Services, you should read the privacy policies of those sites and be aware that they may follow different rules regarding the use or disclosure of your Personal Information. In addition, third-party web advertisers may set cookies. These cookies allow the advertisement server operated by that third party to recognize your computer each time they send you an online advertisement. Accordingly, advertisement servers may compile information about where or whether you viewed their advertisements and which advertisements you clicked on. This information allows web advertisers to deliver targeted advertisements that they believe will be of most interest to you. This Privacy Policy applies to cookies placed on your computer by us, but does not cover the use of cookies by any third-party web advertisers. For the privacy practices of such third-party web advertisers, you should consult the applicable privacy policy for the relevant third-party web advertiser(s).

CHG uses a third-party service provider to manage all payments, including credit card processing. This service provider is not permitted to store, retain, or use Personal Information except for the sole purpose of credit card processing on our behalf. CHG does not have access to any of the credit card information provided by Users to such third-party service provides.

 

 

Information Security

We have implemented technology and policies with the objective of protecting your privacy from unauthorized access and improper use and will update these measures as new technology becomes available, as appropriate.

We restrict access to Personal Information to CHG employees, contractors and agents who need to know that information in order to operate, develop or improve our Services. These individuals are bound by confidentiality obligations and may be subject to discipline, including termination and criminal prosecution if they fail to meet these obligations.

The security of your Personal Information is important to us. We use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that Personal Information is stored and maintained in a secure environment.

We recommend that you print a copy of this Privacy Policy for your reference and revisit this policy from time to time to ensure you are aware of any changes. Your continued use of the Services signifies your acceptance of any changes.
