Privacy Policy
www.captablemafia.com (the “Website”) and all of its related services (which services,
together with the Website, the “Services”; the Website and the Services together, “we”
or “us”) take your privacy seriously. We are committed to maintaining the privacy of
personal information in accordance with applicable legislation. This Privacy Policy describes our practices concerning the collection, use, and disclosure of your personal
information. By providing information to us, you consent to our Privacy Policy.
What Personal Information Do We Collect?
The application of this Privacy Policy is limited to Personal Information and does not
apply to business information to the extent it is not also Personal Information. Canadian
privacy legislation defines “Personal Information” broadly as information about an
identifiable individual or as information that allows an individual to be identified.
The types of Personal Information that we may collect about you includes:
Contact and residency information, such as your name, home address, telephone
number, personal e-mail address;
Government ID information, such as passport information and driver’s license
information;
Financial information, such as billing, and account information, banking information,
credit card information, credit record information, financial records, and tax information;
Information we are lawfully permitted to collect;
We also collect any other personal information you voluntarily provide to us. For
example, if you submit Personal Information to us through any of our online forms, PDF
forms, physical forms, by email, by telephone, or in person, we may collect that
Personal Information and may use and disclose it as set out in this Privacy Policy.
Consent to Our Collection of Personal Information
In most cases, we obtain your consent to collect, use and disclose your Personal
Information. By using the Services, you consent to our collection, use, and disclosure of
your Personal Information as necessary to provide the Services to you and to comply
with our legal obligations.
Generally, we collect your Personal Information directly from you at the start of or during
the course of your use of the Services. Sometimes we may obtain information about you
from other sources.
If you voluntarily send us Personal Information, we will consider that to be your consent
to us collecting, using, and disclosing that Personal Information for the purposes of
providing the Services to you. We will obtain your consent before using or disclosing
your Personal Information beyond the scope of the consent you originally provided.
Where permitted or required by applicable law or regulatory requirements, we may
collect information about you without your knowledge or consent.
Why do We Collect Your Personal Information?
We collect, use, and disclose Personal Information in order to provide the Services to
you.
Withdrawal of Consent
You may withdraw your consent to our collection, use, and disclosure of your Personal
Information at any time, subject to legal and/or contractual restrictions and upon
reasonable notice. Your withdrawal of consent to our collection, use and disclosure of
your Personal Information will preclude our ability to provide the Services to you.
You can ask us not to send you e-mail communications by following the opt-out
instructions in each communication or you may let us know by contacting us at
bullriders@captablemafia.com.
Disclosure of Personal Information
We do not disclose your Personal Information to third parties without your consent
unless permitted or required by applicable laws or court orders. However, in order to
provide you with the Services, we may need to disclose your Personal Information to
our employees, contractors, consultants and other parties who require such information
to assist us with managing our relationship with you, including: third parties that provide
services to us or on our behalf; third parties that assist us in the provision of the
Services to you (such as couriers); and third parties whose services we use to conduct
our business.
Additional, in order to provide you with the Services, we may need to disclose your
Personal Information third party technology companies for the purposes of processing
and storing your Personal Information. Some of these technology companies are
located in foreign jurisdictions – this may affect your legal rights with respect to such
Personal Information.
Due to the cross-border nature of the Internet, personal information and other data
disclosed to any Internet based services may become subject to the laws and court
orders of other jurisdictions (such as the United States). While we rigorously evaluate
the privacy policies and data protection standards used by all of the service providers
we engage, you acknowledge and agree that there are inherent risks in the
transmission of data while using such services or any other Internet based services,
such as data leaks, hacking, misappropriation, data loss, identity theft, and disclosures
to foreign governments and agencies.
We may also contract with a third party to provide us with certain services such as
archival file storage or insurance. In such cases, we will use contractual or other means
to ensure the third-party service provider is bound by obligations regarding privacy
which are consistent with this policy.
Accuracy of Your Information
It is important that the information that we have on file be accurate and up-to-date. If,
during the course of your use of the Services, any of your information changes, please
inform us so that we can make any necessary changes. Although we are under no
obligation to do so, we may also ask you from time to time whether your Personal
Information is up-to-date.
Safeguards and Risks
We use various safeguards to ensure that your Personal Information is protected
against loss, theft, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, copying or alteration.
These include: security of our physical premises; our professional obligations; and
security software, anti-virus software, and firewalls to prevent unauthorized computer
access.
While we endeavour to keep your Personal Information safe, our collection, use, and
disclosure of your Personal Information is not without risks. For example, our security
safeguards may be compromised by viruses, hacking attempts, or physical break-ins.
Consequently, we cannot guarantee the security of your Personal Information. If your
Personal Information was wrongfully accessed, there is a risk that you may suffer a
harm, such as identity theft, financial loss, prejudice to your legal position, or personal
embarrassment.
Please be careful whenever sending personal information to us via email. Email is
generally not a secure means of transferring information. We therefore cannot
guarantee that this information will not be lost or used in a fraudulent manner and we
encourage the use of email encryption to communicate with us.
Access to Your Personal Information
You have a right to challenge the accuracy and completeness of your Personal
Information and to have it amended, as appropriate. You also have a right to request
access to your Personal Information and receive an accounting of how that information
has been used and disclosed, subject to certain exceptions prescribed by law. However,
if the requested information would reveal Personal Information about another individual,
your request for access may be limited or denied. If your request for access is denied,
CTM will notify you in writing of the reason for the denial.
To request access or to amend your Personal Information, please contact us at
inquries@captablemafia.com.
Challenging Compliance
CTM will respond to inquiries about its policies and practices relating to its handling of your Personal Information. Inquiries should be directed to
bullriders@captablemafia.com. CTM will investigate all complaints and will respond within 30 days of receipt of a written inquiry. If the complaint is found to be justified, CTM will take appropriate measures to resolve it, including, if necessary, amending this Privacy Policy and its procedures.
Website Usage
Like most other websites, we may monitor traffic patterns, website usage, and related
website information to optimize your visit to the Website.
Cookies
In addition to any information that you choose to submit to us, we or selected third
parties may use a variety of technologies that store or access information already stored
on your personal computer, laptop, tablet or mobile phone (each a device) whenever
you visit or interact with the Website.
A few of the methods that may be used to store or access information already stored on
your device include the following (and in future other technology and methods may be
developed):
Cookies – a cookie is a file placed on a device when a user visits a website. Cookies
can be temporary (e.g. session) or permanent (e.g. persistent).
HTML5—HTML5 cookies can be programmed through HTML5 local storage and do not
require a plug-in.
ETag or entity tag—an opaque identifier assigned by a web server to a specific version
of a resource found at a URL that acts as a form of device identifier.
When you visit the Website, we may use any of the above technologies to collect
information such as the type of Internet browser and operating system you use, the
domain name of the website from which you came, your preferences, date and duration
of the visit, number of visits, average time spent on our website, pages viewed and
number of cookies accumulated. Unless a visitor specifically informs us (e.g. by
registering for an event or sending us correspondence from the website), we will not
know who visitors are. Visitors can reset their browsers either to notify them when they
have received a cookie or refuse to accept cookies. However, if a visitor refuses to
accept cookies, he or she may not be able to use some of the features available on the
Website.
We obtain your consent to our information collection technologies by providing you with
transparent information in our privacy policy and providing you with the opportunity to
make your choice whether to use the Website. You have the right to object to the use of
information collection technologies. Regular cookies may generally be disabled or
removed by tools that are available as part of most commercial browsers, and in some
but not all instances can be blocked in the future by selecting certain settings. Each
browser you use will need to be set separately and different browsers offer different
functionality and options in this regard. Also, these tools may not be effective with
regard to HTML5 cookies.
Please be aware that if you disable or remove these technologies some parts of the
Website will not work and that when you revisit the Website your ability to limit cookies
is subject to your browser settings and limitations.
IP Addresses
The server that hosts the Website automatically collects IP addresses. We may view the
IP log from time to time, for example, to maintain the security of the Website. We do not
link the IP addresses to other personally identifiable information unless necessary for
the purposes of a criminal or civil investigation.
Online Communications
In order to obtain the Services, visitors may voluntarily submit Personal Information to
us for purposes such as asking a question, obtaining information, reviewing or
downloading a publication, subscribing to a newsletter or a mail or e-mail list,
participating in a seminar or other event, and participating in contests and surveys.
E-mail Communications
From time to time, we may send marketing or promotional e-mail communications to
concerning information about the Services and other third parties with whom we have a
relationship and with information that may be useful to you. In doing so, we may collect
related information such as the time and date you first opened our email
communications, how many times our email communications are opened, the number of
click-throughs per article, and total click-through in connection with our email
communications. We may also compile generally the related statistics. We may store
and use any such information for the purposes of managing and improving our email
communications with you. If you decide you no longer wish to receive these
communications, you can use the unsubscribe link included in such communications.
Links
From time to time we may link to other websites. These links are provided as a
convenience only. Please be advised that the privacy policies and practices of third-
party websites very likely differ from those of CTM, and we have no responsibility for
such third party websites. You should take the time to read the privacy policies of such
third-party websites before using them.
Third Party Collection
This Privacy Policy does not apply to applications (apps), technologies or sites that are
owned by and/or operated by other parties (such as app developers, third party
advertisers or third-party ad servers), even if we use their technology to store or collect
data. The relevant third party’s terms of use, privacy policy, permissions, notices and
choices should be reviewed by yourself regarding their collection, storage and sharing
practices since they may be different from ours.
