It does not apply to information collected by:

• us offline or through any other means, including on any other website operated by the Company (including our affiliates and subsidiaries) or any third party; or

• any third party, including through any application or content (including advertising) that may link to or be accessible from or on the Platform.

1.People Under the Minimum Age

The Platform is not intended for people under 18 years of age (the “Minimum Age”). No one under the Minimum Age may provide any information to or on the Platform. We do not knowingly collect personal information from people under the Minimum Age. If you are under the Minimum Age, do not use or provide any information on the Platform or on or through any of its features, make any purchases through the Platform, use any of the interactive or public comment features of the Platform or provide any information about yourself to us, including your name, address, telephone number, e-mail address or any screen name or user name you may use. If we learn we have collected or received personal information from a person under the Minimum Age without verification of parental consent, we will delete that information. If you believe we might have any information from or about a person under the Minimum Age, please contact us—see Section 12 of this Policy.

Consent

When we collect, use or disclose your personal information we will generally obtain your consent.  Most of the time, we will obtain your consent before or at the same time we collect your personal information. In some instances, however, we may seek your consent after we have collected your personal information if we wish to make an additional use or disclosure of your personal information where we do not already have your consent for that new use or disclosure.

Depending on the circumstances, your consent may be express or implied.  Express consent would arise if you specifically consented to a particular use of your personal information.  Express consent can be given orally, electronically or in writing.  Implied consent can be inferred from the circumstances.  For example, if we indicate that we may send certain correspondence to your home address and you provide us with your home address, we would not normally obtain your explicit consent to use your home address to send you that correspondence—your consent would be implied in those circumstances.

If you voluntarily provide your personal information for a particular purpose, you have given your consent to the collection, use or disclosure of the information for that purpose.

Privacy Policy as a Means of Consent

In addition, certain collections, uses and disclosures of your personal information that we wish to make are specifically set out in this Policy.  Be sure to review this Policy since by providing your personal information to us, you are consenting to the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information in accordance with the terms of this Policy.

Opting In, Opting Out and Changing Consent

We may, from time to time, provide you with an opportunity to opt-out of certain collections, uses and disclosures of your personal information.  At the same time, an implied consent to collect, use or disclose your personal information would arise if you fail to indicate that you wish to opt-out of the particular collection, use or disclosure when you are given an opportunity to do so.

As well, we may, from time to time, provide you with an opportunity to opt-in to certain collections, uses and disclosures of your personal information.  In that case, if you do not opt-in, we will assume that you do not consent to your personal information being collected, used or disclosed in that particular manner.

We will generally use an opt-out method when a particular use or disclosure is not unusual, the information is not particularly sensitive or when the Company believes that most people would likely consent to the particular use or disclosure.  We will generally use the opt-in method in other circumstances.

Changing Consent

You may change or withdraw your consent at any time on reasonable notice to us, subject to pre-existing legal and contractual obligations, by contacting us as set out in Section 12.  If you withdraw certain consents, it may limit the manner in which you can make use of the Platform and to otherwise interact with the Company or you may be required to delete your account.  For clarity, your ability to change or withdraw consent is not absolute.  The Company reserves the right to continue handling your personal information in those circumstances required or permitted by law despite a change or withdrawal of consent.
