Privacy Notice

 

This privacy notice discloses the privacy practices for www.oel.org.

 

Information Collection, Use, and Sharing

We are the sole owners of the information collected on this site. The Ontario Electrical League (OEL) collects member information through membership applications and renewals, online member profiles, conference and event registrations and publication subscriptions. Member information may be collected via direct telephone contact, through the Internet or on a prescribed form provided by the organization. We only have access to/collect information that you voluntarily give us via email or other direct contact from you. We will not sell or rent this information to anyone.

 

We will use your information to respond to you, regarding the reason you contacted us. We will not share your information with any third party outside of our organization, other than as necessary to fulfill your request, e.g., to register for training.

 

Unless you ask us not to, we may contact you via email in the future to tell you about industry news, events, new products or services or changes to this privacy policy.

 

You may opt out of any future contacts from us at any time. You can do so by contacting us via the email address or phone number given on our website.

 

Security

We take precautions to protect your information. When you submit sensitive information via the website, your information is protected both online and offline.

 

Wherever we collect sensitive information (such as credit card data), that information is encrypted and transmitted to us in a secure way. You can verify this by looking for a lock icon in the address bar and looking for "https" at the beginning of the address of the Web page.

 

While we use encryption to protect sensitive information transmitted online, we also protect your information offline. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, billing or customer service) are granted access to personally identifiable information. The computers/servers in which we store personally identifiable information are kept in a secure environment.

 

The OEL tracks visitors to their public website for statistical purposes. The site captures limited information about visits. No personally identifiable information is collected, only aggregate data – such as the number of hits per page.

 

For members only web pages accessible by authorized members, names of the members and email addresses are captured to authenticate levels of access and track the number of times members have visited the site.

 

Links

This website contains links to other sites. Please be aware that we are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of any other site that collects personally identifiable information.
