INFORMATION COLLECTED

 

In the course of operating the OAKVILLE SYMPHONY YOUTH ORCHESTRA services, we may collect two types of information about our users: Personal Information and Non-Personal Information. “Personal Information” is personally identifiable information, such as your name, address, email address, birth date and gender. Personal Information is collected by us when you choose to provide it to us when registering for a OAKVILLE SYMPHONY YOUTH ORCHESTRA service, such as:

  • Enter a OAKVILLE SYMPHONY YOUTH ORCHESTRA promotion or contest
  • Choose to receive an OAKVILLE SYMPHONY YOUTH ORCHESTRA newsletter
  • If you choose to contact any of our board members, volunteers or staff, including the Music Director, General Manager, Personnel Manager and/or Music Librarian.

 

We may keep a record of that correspondence so that we may fully address the subject matter. We may also receive Personal Information from our business partners and other third parties, provided that such third parties confirm to us that you have permitted them to share such information. Business contact information such as the name, title, business address, email address or telephone number of a business or professional person or an employee of an organization is not considered Personal Information.

 

“Non-Personal Information” is information of an anonymous nature, such as your Internet Protocol Address (IP Address), the domain you may have used to access a OAKVILLE SYMPHONY YOUTH ORCHESTRA service, the type and version of browser or operating system you may be using, and the website you may have come from and visit next.

 

Aggregate information, such as demographic statistics of our users (e.g. average age or geographical allocation of our users), number of visitors and average time spent on an OAKVILLE SYMPHONY YOUTH ORCHESTRA service, is also considered Non-Personal Information.

 

Non-Personal Information is collected or derived by us in the course of operating the OAKVILLE SYMPHONY YOUTH ORCHESTRA services. For example, our Web servers may automatically collect Non-Personal Information which is provided through your browser or stored on a Cookie (as defined herein) or through a Web Beacon (as defined herein) when you choose to visit a OAKVILLE SYMPHONY YOUTH ORCHESTRA service.

 

Non-Personal Information is used by OAKVILLE SYMPHONY YOUTH ORCHESTRA as described in this Privacy Policy.
