The Belleville Senators Hockey Club* recognizes the importance of your privacy and the sensitivity of your personal information. We are committed to protecting any personal information we receive from you. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, manage and use your personal information and safeguard your privacy. The policy is designed to be compliant with the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (“PIPEDA”), a federal law that governs the collection, use and disclosure of personal information by private sector organizations. This Privacy Policy is subject to, and incorporates by reference, the various Terms of Use governing the use of our associated Web Sites (“Sites”).
*The Belleville Senators Hockey Club is owned and operated by Capital Sports & Entertainment Inc. In this policy, “we’, “our”, and “us” refer to Capital Sports & Entertainment Inc. “Belleville Senators” is a registered trade-mark of Capital Sports & Entertainment Inc.
This policy will govern the use, collection and disclosure of your personal information and will be posted on our Sites.
This Privacy Policy applies only to transactions made and information collected on the Sites, and does not apply to any other transactions, information, web site, telephone or offline point of contact with you or other consumers.
The Information We Collect From You For the purposes of operating the Sites we may collect various types of information from you, including: “contact information” (i.e. information that could be used to contact you such as your name, postal address, phone number and email address as well as your computer’s unique IP address); “financial information” (i.e., passwords, credit card numbers and financial institution account numbers); and “demographic information” (e.g., postal code, hometown, income, gender, interests, purchase history information, posting and sales information and age). We may request demographic information for purposes such as registration for newsletters, chat rooms, contests and auctions, and for participation in other interactive online activities. We also may use this information to better understand your needs and preferences and to recommend particular products and services that may meet your needs.
What is “Personal Information”? Some of the information we collect from you may constitute “personal information” for the purposes of PIPEDA. Personal information is any information that identifies you and includes your name, address and telephone number.
Why We Collect Your Personal Information We collect personal information only by lawful and fair means and not indiscriminately. The purposes for which we collect personal information will be limited to those related to our business and to those a reasonable person would consider appropriate. Those purposes may be disclosed in writing, while in other cases, the purposes will be implied. For example, when you sign up to be a SENS INSIDER, you implicitly consent to our use of your personal information for the purpose of delivering this service to you.
Consent Consent for the collection, use and disclosure of personal information may be obtained orally, or in writing and may be expressly given or implied. In determining how we obtain your consent, we take into account the sensitivity of the personal information to be collected, used or disclosed. Where the information is not sensitive, your consent may be implied at the time of collection unless you inform us otherwise. For example, when you fill out a ballot for a contest, you imply consent to our use of your personal information to administer the contest. Similarly, when you purchase tickets, you provide implied consent to our processing your purchase and including you in any direct marketing activity we undertake concerning the Belleville Senators Hockey Club or CAA Arena* news and events, unless you specifically advise otherwise. If you advise us that you no longer wish to receive information about these matters, we will not send you any further material.
You can withdraw your consent for the use of your personal information at any time (see the section entitled “Inquiries/Complaints” below), subject to legal restrictions and upon reasonable notice to us. However, not allowing us to use this information about you may mean that we may not be able to provide you with certain products and services. We will seek your consent at the time your personal information is collected. Where we want to use your personal information for a purpose not previously identified, we will seek your consent prior to such new use of your personal information.
Camera Policy Cameras are not permitted for most events. Refer to the event fact page on the CAA Arena website for the camera policy for each event. Recording devices are not permitted for any event or Belleville Senators game. For Belleville Senators games cameras are permitted. Cameras with detachable lenses exceeding 75 mm are not permitted. Flash photography is also not permitted at Belleville Senators games.
Information Other Web Sites Collect From You On the Sites, we place links to other web sites operated by third parties. We do not control these other web sites or their business practices, and this Privacy Policy does not apply to these other web sites. The operators of these other web sites may collect different kinds of information about you, and may use and disclose that information in different ways than we would if it were collected on the Sites. It is important that you review their privacy policies and we remind you that we will not be responsible for their actions.
How We Collect Your Personal Information We collect your personal information in a number of different ways. For example, we collect information from you when you register for one of our contests or promotions, sign up for our e-newsletter, or complete market research studies conducted by us from time to time. We also collect your information when you subscribe to become a Belleville Senators season seat holder or CAA suite holder, or purchase other tickets from us. We may also collect your personal information when you request information from us to process a complaint that you have registered with us. We also collect your information through the Sites: see the section entitled “Cookies/IP Addresses” below.
Disclosure We do not disclose your personal information to any third party to enable them to market their products and services to you without first obtaining your express consent.
We may transfer certain personal information to third parties solely for the purpose of administering, processing, or fulfilling an order or service you have requested on our behalf, such as mailing houses, contest administration, etc. We will insist that any such third parties maintain the confidentiality of the personal information we provide to them and implement appropriate safeguards to prevent its unauthorized disclosure.
We reserve the right to co-operate with local, provincial, national and international authorities in investigations of improper or unlawful activities and this may require the disclosure of personal information. We may also report to other organizations about improper or unlawful user activities on the Sites and this reporting may include disclosure of personal information relating to those individuals conducting such improper or unlawful activities.
Responsibility We will not be responsible or otherwise liable for any use or disclosure of any information you provide to us by a third party to whom we are allowed to disclose such information under this Privacy Policy.
Safeguarding Your Personal Information We take all reasonable precautions to ensure that your personal information is kept from loss, unauthorized access, modification, or disclosure, and to limit access to your personal information to those employees who may need it for use in accordance with our Privacy Policy. The Sites employ security measures to protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of the information we receive from you. Where applicable we use secure socket layer (SSL) technology to maintain the security of commerce transactions. We also encrypt your contact information and financial information as it travels over the Internet and we store your financial information on our servers in encrypted form. Your information may be transferred to and maintained in whole or in part on computer networks which may be located outside of the province, country or other governmental jurisdiction in which you reside, and may be stored on equipment or in facilities leased or licensed from third parties.
Access to Your Personal Information You may ask for access to any personal information we hold about you. We will respond to your request within 30 days. There is no cost for reasonable requests unless you require copies of records. We may not be able to provide you with access to your personal information where denial of access is required or permitted by law, the information cannot be separated from the records of others, cannot be disclosed for reasons of security or confidentiality, or is protected by legal privilege. If we deny your request for access to, or refuse a request to correct, information, we shall explain the reasons for the denial/refusal.
Additionally, if you have an account on For The B account you may modify the information you have submitted to us by following the applicable link on the Site.
