In order to help you understand the role technology plays in the collection and use of information you provide CanLaw , the following guidelines have been created.

Personally Identifiable Information

  • Our site uses an order form for customers to request information, products, and services. Your credit card is protected by the highest available security encryption and ordering online with us is probably safer then your giving your card to say, a waiter in a restaurant. Contact information from the order form is used to send orders and information about our company to our customers. The customer's contact information is also used to get in touch with the visitor when necessary. Financial information that is collected is used only to bill the user for products and services.

  • CanLaw will never supply your personal information to anyone for any reason. Your personal information when submitted by you requesting our services is used only for that purpose and thereafter isolated in our secure archives.

  • Credit card information is protected behind secure passwords and retained only for accounting purposes.

  • Credit card orders placed on CanLaw are safe and secure. They are converted to a secure document that uses a high-grade encryption key (RC4, 128 bit} The information you enter on the form is encrypted and can only be read by CanLaw.

BE DISCREET WHEN REQUESTING REFERRALS
Remember that the internet and "ordinary" email is generally not secure unless security measures such as encryption are used by you. Email can be intercepted and read by others without your knowledge.
