Disclosure of personal information

In these circumstances, we provide only the personal information necessary to fulfill their mandate, and we undertake to ensure that the principles set out in this Policy are respected. 

In addition, these service providers provide us with sufficient guarantees that they have implemented adequate safeguards to protect your personal information before it is processed or disclosed to them.

We do not sell, trade or otherwise disclose your personal information to third parties, subject to exceptions provided by law.

Retention of personal information
