WCG Services - Privacy Policy

WCG Services (WCG) is subject to the Personal Information Protection Act and other jurisdictional private and public sector privacy legislation as required by our clients. WCG is committed to protecting the privacy of both our customers and our employees. It is our goal to not only meet the requirements of this legislation, but to exceed the requirements by implementing “best practices” with respect to the collection, use, disclosure and security of the personal information in our custody and control.

WCG also requires our third-party service providers to demonstrate full compliance with our privacy obligations, principles and processes outlined in this policy.

WCG only collects personal information as supplied by our clients and users in support of the services that we provide. Only that information which relates directly to, and is necessary for, the operation of our programs is collected. We do not collect personal information unlawfully or unfairly. In most circumstances, we only collect personal information directly from the relevant individual. Indirect collection occurs only in very limited and specific circumstances, or as required by law.

Collected personal information will only be used by authorized WCG staff, to fulfill the purpose for which it was originally collected, for specific purposes if directed by the individual from whom the personal information is being collected or our clients, or for a use consistent with the original purpose.

WCG does not sell, share or disclose your information to others for any type of mailing list.

WCG administers the highest security standards to ensure that the personal information that is in our custody and/or control is always secured. Security measures include: secure facilities, locked filing cabinets, limited user access, use of passwords, firewalls and encryption software.
