Privacy Notice
Introduction
SAVIIUM TECHNOLOGY SOLUTIONS INC (“Saviium” or “we”) is committed to keeping our clients’ information confidential, consistent with our obligations as professionals. This commitment extends to personal information of our clients and other individuals (“you”).
Our privacy policy adheres to both the guidelines and principals underlying the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), as well as our own commitment to ensuring that clients are comfortable providing us with personal information.
Collection, Use and Disclosure of Personal Information
Personal Information is any information about an identifiable individual or that permits an individual to be identified. Generally, Personal Information does not include your name, business address or business contact information, such as your business title, email address or phone numbers, which you provide to us for business purposes. Saviium generally collects Personal Information that you voluntarily provide, but we may collect information from third parties and as agents on behalf of our clients where we or they have obtained the requisite consent, or as otherwise permitted or required by law. We may also collect information through our website, although that information is typically restricted to your name and email address.
By continuing to use our website or services and / or by submitting your Personal Information to Saviium, you consent to our collection, use, and disclosure of such personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy and as permitted or required by law. To the extent that you provide Personal Information of another individual to Saviium, you represent that you have the necessary consent or authority to permit us to collect, use and disclose such Personal Information for the purposes set out in this Policy.
Saviium collects, uses and discloses Personal Information primarily to provide advisory and consulting services to clients and prospective clients, for administrative and relationship management purposes (including to develop and manage our knowledge management systems, and to market and deliver Saviium services) and as otherwise permitted or required by law. We may from time to time use third party service providers to perform certain functions for us, such as office services and data processing. In these circumstances, such third party service providers are contractually bound to safeguard the Personal Information transferred to them with measures comparable to that provided by us and described in this Policy and not to retain, use or disclose Personal Information transferred to them for any purpose other than the provision of services to Saviium. Personal Information supplied to Saviium is confidential and we do not distribute such information to any third party except with your consent or as permitted or required by law. Saviium does not sell Personal Information.
Security
Your Personal Information is treated as private, confidential information by Saviium and we strive to ensure that your Personal Information, regardless of format, is protected and kept secure at all times. Most methods of communication are not fully secure and security measures may create challenges to the efficient exchange of information. Email is often our preferred method of communication and unless you object we usually use unencrypted plain text emails when communicating with you. If wish to communicate via encrypted email, please advise us in advance.

The only information we collect through our website is the information voluntarily supplied by you if you contact Saviium through the website. Unless otherwise indicated, this information is typically restricted to your name and e-mail address.
