Your use of this site or the Valongroup.com services constitutes acceptance of these terms and conditions. If you do not agree with these policies, please cease using this site immediately. These terms were last revised on Feb 11, 2009. Valon Group reserves the right to amend these policies from time to time. If such amendments affect how Valon Group uses or discloses personal information already held by Valon Group in a material and adverse way over and above previous express or implied consent, Valon Group will contact you to obtain consent. Notwithstanding the terms of this policy, the collection, use, and disclosure of personal information may be made outside of the terms herein to the extent provided for in the Canadian Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act, and other relevant Canadian and Ontario legislation in effect from time to time. These exemptions include, without limitation, publicly available information, or information disclosed for criminal or civil investigations or compliance with law or court orders. Valon Group takes reasonable precautions to ensure your privacy on the terms contained in this policy. Valon Group uses reasonable efforts to, but cannot totally prevent, unintended disclosures by such means as hackers and other unauthorized individuals, and inadvertent or illicit employee actions.

Cardholder provided Information
Our electronic purchase service requires that cardholders provide contact information (including without limitation: name, address, city, state or province, postal code, country, telephone and email), and financial information (including without limitation: name on credit card, credit card number and expiry date), and ordering information. This information is collected and used to process the transaction and for internal accounting and other procedures. Following a transaction, we may contact cardholders by phone or email for security purposes.

Our site’s user application form requires user applicants to provide contact information (including without limitation: company name, contact name, address, city, province, country, postal code, telephone number, fax number, email address). We use information collected from the user to send to Valongroup.com, to contact the merchant for various reasons, and for internal accounting and other procedures. Information is used to check the user's eligibility for our service and to obtain and verify further information from financial institutions and credit reporting agencies or bureaus in regard to the request, and to support the ongoing provision of service. Such information may be provided to such third parties for those purposes. It is also used for login validation purposes.

Information Automatically Collected
Our Web site keeps track of usage data, such as the source address that a page request is coming from, your IP address or domain name, the date and time of the page request, the referring Web site (if any) and other parameters in the URL. The IP addresses we collect on our electronic purchase service are linked to personally identifiable information. This is collected in order to combat fraud during the purchase process. We also use this data to better understand Web site usage in the aggregate so that we know what areas of our Web site users prefer. Automatically collected information is also used for the same purposes as cardholder supplied and merchant supplied information.

Sharing of Information
Certain information submitted through the electronic purchase service is shared with the provincial registries from whom the cardholder is requesting services so that Valongroup.com can fulfill the order. Information is also shared with other parties necessary to complete credit card transactions, including, without limitation, companies related to Valon Group, credit card companies, credit card clearing houses and processors, and financial institutions. Valon Group is acting as an intermediary between the provincial registries and a user’s credit card company. The parties mentioned in the above paragraph, and not Valon Group, are responsible for their own privacy polices and for maintaining privacy and confidentiality for all information Valon Group provides them. If a user has any questions or concerns about the privacy policies of those parties, it must contact such parties. Except for the above parties, and for use by Valon Group’s consultants and professional advisers on Valon Group’s behalf for the uses disclosed herein, Valon Group does not share personal information with any other third parties. Valon Group may, however, provide to third parties aggregate or statistical information that does not disclose personally identifiable information. Valon Group may disclose personal information to another entity purchasing (including for diligence purposes prior to purchase) the assets of Valon Group, providing that entity abides by this or a similar privacy policy.

Contact Us / Email Inquiries
No information sent to Valon Group via email or the website inquiry form is used for any other reason than to respond to and maintain a record of the inquiry. This information is not sent to third parties or retained for mailing list purposes.

Security
Valon Group takes measures to protect and keep information secure. Our User's area, application form and electronic purchase service are secured with SSL encryption. RapidSSL has supplied us with digital certificates for our Web sites. All information collected by Valon Group is held offline, secured via SSL encryption, and protected by a firewall. Whenever sensitive information is transmitted to Valon Group through our Web site, such as a credit card number, our server provides 128-bit encryption of the information as it travels across the Internet.
