When do we collect your personal information

This Privacy Policy applies to personal information or information we may collect about you:

Why do we use your information

VOX TALENT will only collect information about you that is necessary to achieve the purpose identified in this Privacy Policy.

VOX TALENT collects information from you for the following reasons:

To provide information on our services that may be of interest to you
To contact you, when necessary, regarding issues concerning your use of our services
To better understand your needs, as input to future product and service development plans

To diagnose, troubleshoot and resolve technical problems, and contact you to resolve such technical problems.
To administer VOX TALENT’s website.

We will obtain your consent prior to the collection, use or disclosure of your information. Consent may be express or implied. Implied consent means that you provide the information to us and the purpose of providing such information would be clear to you, even if we did not state it. Our privacy policy, however, does not limit VOX TALENT from collecting and using information that is publicly available. This means, for instance, your name and business email address could be added to our email and / or postal communication list so that we can provide further information to you on our products and services.

How we use your personal information we collected

VOX TALENT will use the information you provide only for the purposes identified in this policy. We will not use this information for any other purpose unless we have obtained your consent.

VOX TALENT will only disclose information about you to its affiliated companies, distributors, and to authorized agents that assist us in performing our functions for the limited purposes listed above. Our agents may include companies and individuals that process credit card transactions.

We will not sell or otherwise disclose the information collected from you to other third parties, except in those limited cases where we are legally required to do so (such as in response to a court order, or disclosure to a public body to assist in an investigation).

We will retain the information that we have collected from you only so long as it is necessary to achieve our stated purposes or if it is legally required that we retain such information.

How we protect personal information

We securely keep your information for as long as we reasonably require it, either for business purposes, to comply with any legal obligations, or for as long as we are contractually obliged. In some jurisdictions, you can request that your personal information be deleted. Please note that if you request deletion of your personal information, we may retain your personal information for as long as necessary for our legitimate business interests, such as prevention of money laundering, fraud detection and prevention, and enhancing safety, and to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations.

Access to sensitive personal information is limited to those individuals and agents having a need to know.

When we engage a third party service provider to collect or otherwise process personal information on our behalf, the third party is selected carefully and will be required to have appropriate data protection agreements and security measures in place.

Transfer of Personal Information Outside of Canada and the EEA

VOX TALENT’s operational center is located in Canada. Canada has robust and comprehensive laws that protect your personal information. The European Commission has recognized Canada as an “adequate” jurisdiction that offers a level of data protection similar to the EEA.

However, we may need to transfer your personal information across international borders to countries that have different levels of data protection laws than the country from where you submitted your personal information. In these circumstances we will take appropriate steps to reasonably ensure that your personal information is treated securely and as described in this Privacy Policy, in accordance with applicable data protection laws. These steps will include appropriate contractual mechanisms or other approved methods.

Your rights regarding your personal information

We want to keep your personal information accurate and we will provide you with access to your information and the opportunity to change your information. To protect your privacy and security, we will also take reasonable steps to verify your identity, such as a password and user ID, before granting access to your information.

If we rely on consent to process your personal information, you may withdraw that consent at any time, subject to legal and contractual restrictions and reasonable notice. Please note, however, that withdrawing consent may affect our ability to provide our services to you and maintain our relationship.
