4. How we use personal information

As part of our business operations, we hold and use certain personal information pertaining to our members in order to process your requests, provide you with membership services and understand your needs so that we can serve you better. Generally, we need to use your personal information for the following purposes:

  • To confirm your membership status in order for you to receive certain promotions on value-added products that only members can enjoy;
  • If you ask us to, forwarding your inquiries to a third party when resolving a membership assistance case;
  • To process payment for your membership request;
  • To meet regulatory or contractual requirements relating to the services and products provided to you. 
5. When we share personal information

As outlined above, from time to time we engage unaffiliated third parties to perform certain services or provide promotional services to our members. In these circumstances, the personal information that the third party receives is limited to only the information held by us that they need in order to render their services to us.

We will disclose personal information if a law, regulation, search warrant, subpoena or court order legally authorizes us or requires us to do so.

Except as set out above, we do not sell, rent, share or disclose the personal information we hold or make our membership list available to others without your consent.

6. How long do we hold personal information?

Personal information is retained only for so long as is necessary for the purpose set out above. When no longer required, we will destroy, erase or de-personalize the information. Legal requirements may necessitate our retaining some or all of the personal information we hold for a period of time that is longer than we might otherwise hold it.

To make the site visitor's experience on our website easier, Dog Training Genesis uses per-session "cookies" (session identifiers) to track the state of the visitor session. This "cookie" is destroyed when the session with our website is over.

7. Accuracy

To ensure that the personal information you provided is accurate, complete and up to date, we urge you to provide us with updates regarding such information and to inform us of any errors affecting the personal information that we hold.

8. Security Measures

We will continue to keep in place security measures in an effort to protect the personal information held by us from unauthorized use, access, disclosure, distribution, loss or alteration.

In addition, access will be limited to only that information that is strictly necessary for the performance of those duties.

Our members are entitled to access the personal information held by us concerning them. You can access your personal information by making a written request to us. We will generally respond to your request for information within thirty days, unless, for reasons beyond our control, a longer response time is necessary, in which case, you will be advised accordingly.
