On our website, we collect only personal information that is required to improve the services we offer, to improve our site content and, with your permission, to contact you with information about our services. We will not share any personal information obtained on this web site with any other organization without your express knowledge and consent.

You can visit all public areas of our site without providing any personal information. Our site collects only non-personal information based on a visitor’s Internet Protocol (IP) address (this is not personally identifiable). Information collected includes the date and time of visit, the type of Internet browser used to access the site, the referring address (the link a visitor uses to access the site). This data is used to create statistics on site usage and improve online services.

Links to Other Websites
Our website contains links to other websites that are part of, affiliated with, or have a business relationship with Hudson Bay Credit Union. When you leave our site to visit one of these other sites, the only information transferred to the new site is the fact that you came from the Hudson Bay Credit Union web site. Transmission of this referring address allows other sites to monitor their own web traffic, but does not disclose any personal information about you.

Challenging Compliance
If you have any concerns about how your personal information is handled or distributed, please contact us. Our Privacy Officer will be pleased to discuss your concerns with you.

Our privacy officer can be reached at (306) 865-2209.

If, for any reason, you feel your concerns were not appropriately addressed, you may then take the matter to the Hudson Bay Credit Union Board of Directors and the Office of the Privacy Commissioner in Ottawa.

Email Security
General email is not secure since it passes through many points on its route from you to us. If you are using general email to communicate with us, we strongly recommend that you do not include personal financial information (such as account numbers) within the email as we cannot guarantee its confidentiality on route to us.

When you email us your comments, questions or instructions, you provide us your email address and we use it to correspond with you. We then store your email and our replies to you so that we can refer to them in the future. By sending us information or material, you grant to us an unconditional, irrevocable license to use those materials or information and you acknowledge that we may use any ideas, concepts or techniques that you send to us for any purpose, without compensation.

We will not provide your email addresses to any third party without your consent. We may use your email address to send you information about financial products and services that we think may be of interest to you. If you do not want us to contact you with product information by email, you may tell us so at any time and we will discontinue the practice.

If you have asked us to provide you with information on a regular basis, or if we email you information about our products or services, you may ask us to remove you from the list at any time. We intend to include instructions to unsubscribe from the list in every mailing, and on the site when you originally subscribed to the list.
