Introduction
CADS-Alberta will use only personally identifiable information which can be attributed to you, for uses relevant and reasonable to the functioning of CADS-Alberta as outlined in this Privacy Policy. CADS-Alberta will not retain personally identifiable information unrelated to CADS-Alberta functioning. Personally identifiable information will herein be referred to as "personal information" and consists of any or all of the following: name, age, physical characteristics such as weight or height, medical records, ID numbers as well as subjective information such as past evaluations, disciplinary action and/or past disputes. Personal information does not include job titles or publicly available information such as telephone numbers or addresses, or any personal information previously made public for artistic, literary or journalistic purposes (media).
Collection of Personal Information

To use specific features and services provided on CADS-Alberta website, CADS-Alberta will require provision of certain personal information. CADS-Alberta may issue a unique "user id" which must be provided each time the aforementioned features and services are accessed.
With a "user id", CADS-Alberta may collect information about your use of the features and services of its website (whether or not you provide your user id on each visit) and CADS-Alberta may associate this information with your other personal information. If a visitor does not have a user id but does permit cookies, then CADS-Alberta has the means to track use of its website by that visitor but has no ability to determine who that visitor is unless the visitor provides that information.
If possible, CADS-Alberta will collect personal information directly from the individual themself and will only seek outside information relating to the specific individual if it is inappropriate to obtain personal information directly.

However, CADS-Alberta will require that party to agree that it will be similarly bound by the provisions of this Privacy Policy and that it will only use and disclose your personal information as set out by this Privacy Policy.
In the event CADS-Alberta amalgamates with another organization, CADS-Alberta reserves the right to permit that amalgamated organization to continue to use and disclose your personal information.
