We invite you to review our Privacy Policy where you will find answers to your questions, including what information we collect, why we ask for personal information, what we do with such information and the safeguards we use to protect it.
We do not collect your personal information unless you voluntarily provide it to us. When you provide us with personal information, you agree to the manner in which we collect, use, disclose and manage such information as described herein.

Please keep in mind, however, that if you refuse to provide us with certain information or withdraw your consent to its use, we may not be able to provide you with some or all of our products and services as some information is essential to our customer relationships.
By voluntarily providing us with your personal information, you consent to our use and disclosure of that information as set out in this policy.
We collect the above information to properly complete your file, to respond to your requests and to offer you our products and services.
We may also use your personal information, depending on the choice you have made, such as when you subscribe to our mailing list to receive promotional communications, to keep you informed of our new products and services or to send you advertising material or additional information about our products, services, surveys, etc. for marketing and solicitation purposes.
