Privacy Policy

Norfolkian.ca is committed to respecting the privacy concerns of its visitors to this website. Norfolkian.ca has created this privacy policy (the “policy”) to establish guidelines that will govern the collection, use, protection and disclosure of the personal and non-personal information of its visitors.

By registering on this website, by submitting your advertisements or any information through the use of this website, or by otherwise accessing this website, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy and consent to the policies and practices described for the collection, use or disclosure of personal information.

Norfolkian.ca makes every effort through terms and conditions and through the use of user IDs and passwords to restrict those who have access to this website. However, Norfolkian.ca cannot guarantee that all registered users with access will adhere to the limitations that Norfolkian.ca imposes on them, or that unauthorized persons will not gain access to the database.

Norfolkian.ca collects three kinds of information from this website: (1) your voluntarily provided personal information; (2) anonymous non-personal information; and (3) “cookie” based information.

(1) Personal information: Norfolkian.ca does not automatically collect personal information, such as name, address, phone number, email address and other personally identifiable information, from its visitors (“Personal Information”). From time to time, Norfolkian.ca will collect Personal Information that is voluntarily provided by its visitors in filling out registration and/or contest entry forms and subscribing to newsletters and other activities carried out on the website from time to time. Norfolkian.ca will only collect and use such Personal Information solely for the purpose(s) disclosed by Norfolkian.ca at the time of collection. Norfolkian.ca also sometimes uses email addresses that have been voluntarily provided by its visitors to respond to visitors who communicate with us, to inform winners of contests or to subscribe to newsletters, if any. All emails from Norfolkian.ca to its visitors include instructions on how to discontinue receipt of emails, newsletters and other communications from Norfolkian.ca and visitors can discontinue such communications at any time. Email addresses from visitors who wish to discontinue receipt of Norfolkian.ca emails will be removed from Norfolkian.ca’s distribution lists and databases. All Personal Information that may identify a visitor and has been collected with the visitor’s consent by Norfolkian.ca is not disclosed in any identifiable form to any other party outside the company except for the fulfillment of specific purpose identified to the visitor at the time of collection. However, Norfolkian.ca may disclose such information in anonymous, aggregated and non-personally identifiable form to other parties for marketing, advertising or other purposes and to better understand visitors’ use of this website. At any time, a visitor may send an email to community(at)Norfolkian.ca to request that Personal Information be changed, removed or updated in Norfolkian.ca’s databases.

Although Norfolkian.ca is committed to protecting the Personal Information provided to it by its visitors in compliance with this Privacy Policy, it cannot guarantee the security of information, whether personal or otherwise, that visitors disclose online in publicly or privately accessible areas of this website.

(2) Anonymous Non-Personal Information: When visitors visit the website, anonymous, non-personal information about their visit may be automatically collected. Such information may include the length and date of the visit, how the visitor navigated the website, what pages the visitor viewed, the type of browser being used by the visitor, the type of operating system used by the visitor and the domain name of the visitor’s Internet Service Provider. Norfolkian.ca uses this anonymous, non-personal information to track the success of its website with its visitors and to better tailor the website to visitors’ needs and interests. This anonymous, non-personal information may be shared with other parties, such as broadcasters, advertisers, sponsors and partners.

(3) Cookie-based Information: Norfolkian.ca may use cookies on its website. “Cookies” are pieces of information that a website transfers to a visitor’s hard drive for record keeping and identification purposes.

Norfolkian.ca does not use cookies to collect personally identifiable information except in connection with a password-protected online registration for a contest or newsletter or other service and only with the visitor’s informed consent. Visitors may visit the website with its cookies turned off to avoid collection of cookie-based information.
