1. Website Users
Like most websites, PacificOsteopathy.ca collects information that does not identify you as a person, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date you visited. Pacific Osteopathy's purpose in collecting this information is to better understand how users utilize our website and to apply this information to improve your experience.

2. Collecting Personally-Identifying Information
Certain users of PacificOsteopathy.ca will utilize the website in ways that require us to collect personally-identifying information. The type and quantity of data that we collect depends on the kind of interaction. For instance, we ask users who utilize our forums to provide a username and email address. Pacific Osteopathy gathers such information only as necessary and appropriate to meet the purpose of the user's interaction with PacificOsteopathy.ca. We do not release information that reveals your identity other than as described below. Users have the choice not to supply personally-identifying information, but it may limit their use of the website.
3. Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information
Pacific Osteopathy discloses information, that will or may identify you, only to those of its contractors, employees, and associated organizations that (a) require this information in order to supply services available at PacificOsteopathy.ca or process the information on our behalf and (b) have agreed to keep it confidential. Some of those contractors, employees and associated organizations may reside outside of your home country; by utilizing our website and service, you permit the transfer of such information to them. Pacific Osteopathy will not sell or rent information that will or may identify you, to anyone.
Other than to its contractors, employees, and associated organizations, as detailed above, Pacific Osteopathy discloses information that will or may identify you, only when legally obligated to do so, or when Pacific Osteopathy believes in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect the rights or property of Pacific Osteopathy, third parties, or the general public.
As a registered user of PacificOsteopathy.ca, the website system will be in frequent contact with you, i.e. it will send emails reminding you to complete tasks and it will respond to your requests for information. In addition, we occasionally send you emails to tell you about new site features, ask for your feedback, or to update you with what is happening with our services and products.
If you send us a request (for example a support email or through one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it, i.e. in our staff training manual or as a frequently asked question on our website, in order to help us better serve you and other users.
Pacific Osteopathy takes all reasonable precautions necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration, or destruction of your personal information.
