This Privacy Policy ("Policy") sets out our privacy obligations and principles that apply to you (hereinafter referred to as "you" or "user") and Hiveologie including the underlying service provider, Learning Library ULC (collectively "Hiveologie").

These statistics and aggregate reports will not contain any personally identifiable information. Your individual identity is always kept anonymous.

However, if you are completing a program through Hiveologie that is provided by your Broker or your Association or Board, where completion and other data are mandatory, we will be providing that information to your Broker or your Association or Board as needed to fulfill that mandatory requirement. You may contact at any time for more details.

How do we protect your personal information? 
When you provide us with personal information or make a purchase, it's done through a secure server.

Only when it reaches our servers is your information decrypted.

All of our employees with access to personal information will be required as a condition of employment to contractually respect the confidentiality of personal information.

• With your consent

Unless required by law, Hiveologie will not use or disclosure personal information for any purpose other than those described above without first identifying and documenting the purpose and obtaining your consent, where such consent may not reasonably be implied.

Your consent is important to us 
It is important to us that we collect, use or disclose your personal information where we have your consent to do so. Your consent may be implied, deemed (using an opt-out mechanism) or express. Express consent can be given orally, electronically or in writing. Implied consent is consent that can be reasonably inferred from your action or inaction. For example, when you enroll in a Product, we will assume your consent to the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information for the purposes related to the performance of the Product and for any other purposes identified to you at the relevant time.

Typically we will seek your consent at the time that we collect your personal information. In certain circumstances, your consent may be obtained after collection but prior to our use or disclosure of your personal information. If we plan to use or disclose your personal information for a purpose not previously identified (either in this Policy or separately), we will endeavor to advise you of that purpose before such use or disclosure.

As we have described above, we may collect, use or disclose your personal information with your knowledge or consent where we are permitted or required to do so by applicable law.

E-commerce Securities & Guarantees 
We use technology and third party e-commerce transaction processing companies that ensures your payment information is kept confidential and secure. Unless you enroll in a Product or Products that are billed on a subscription basis, credit card details will not be stored after your purchase is processed and billing information will need to be provided each time a course is chosen.

Your Rights 
You may review and approve the information about what you collected upon registration in our customer database. Upon request, we will remove that information from our customer database or change/correct personal information that you state is erroneous. However, you should understand that information about you in our databases may come from a number of sources, including orders placed by you.
