However, in some circumstances, we may be provided with information by third parties (including but not limited to when a customer placing an order uses a third party’s delivery address for delivery of goods).
Disclosure of Personal Information
Your Personal Information may be disclosed in a number of circumstances including the following:
- Third parties where you consent to the use or disclosure (including but not limited to providing your Personal Information to our third-party logistics provider for delivery of your goods); and

Security of Personal Information
Your Personal Information is stored in a manner that reasonably protects it from misuse and loss and from unauthorized access, modification or disclosure.
When your Personal Information is no longer needed for the purpose for which it was obtained, we will take reasonable steps to destroy or permanently de-identify your Personal Information.
However, most of the Personal Information is or will be stored in client files which will be kept by us for a minimum of 7 years.
