Focused Psychological Services Privacy Policy
GENERAL STATEMENT
Focused Psychological Services (“FPS”) respects the privacy of all individuals visiting our website (https://www.focused-psychological-services.com/). This Privacy Policy is written to comply with Canada’s Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (“PIPEDA”). This Privacy Policy will outline what type of information we will collect through our website, and what may be done with this information. FPS reserves the right to amend this Privacy Policy at any time. Any changes will be posted here.
PERSONAL INFORMATION
“Personal Information” includes any factual or subjective information, written or oral, about an identifiable individual (such as your name, address, e-mail address, or phone number). FPS will not collect your Personal Information unless you submit that information to us on purpose, using the information provided on the “Contact” page of our website.
If you do submit Personal Information to us, it may be stored by FPS and may be used by us to contact you. Your Personal Information WILL NOT be sold or given to a third party for use in marketing or solicitation. FPS will confidentially maintain your personal information and will use it only to enhance or support your relationship with us. It is possible, however, that Focused Psychological Services may be forced to disclose your information to the government or another third party in certain circumstances.
While Focused Psychological Services will work hard to keep your personal information private, it is possible that a third party could intercept your information illegally. If, to our knowledge, this occurs, Focused Psychological Services will contact you to explain the situation.
If you would like to remove your information from our database, change your information, or opt out of receiving communication from Focused Psychological Services, you may contact us.
OTHER INFORMATION AND “COOKIES”
Certain information (such as your internet browser, operating system, and IP address) may be collected automatically by our website host but is not collected or retained by FPS.
When you visit our site, your computer may receive a small file called a “cookie” from our website. This “cookie” will be stored on your computer’s hard drive and used to collect information that can then be sent back to a website to identify you. Most internet browsers will allow you to block or erase “cookies” from your hard drive. Please refer to your browser’s help section to learn more about this.
SECURITY
FPS maintains a high level of security and uses an encrypted email account to receive your questions. However, no internet data transmission is 100% secure, and it is possible that any information that you send by email could be intercepted. Therefore, we cannot guarantee the security of your information, and ask that you not send sensitive information by email. If you become our client, we will provide instructions for how to send us any sensitive information or documents.
THIRD-PARTY WEBSITES
FPS may provide or publish links or access to third party content, websites, or services. If you choose to access third party content, websites, services, or systems, you may be required to accept terms of use applicable to them, and agree to accept and comply with any such terms of use. FPS does not represent that it has reviewed such third party websites and is not responsible for them or any content appearing on them, which may change from time to time. Trademarks displayed in conjunction with such third party content, websites, or services are the property of their respective owners. FPS does not endorse any third party content, websites, services, or systems, or guarantee or warrant their quality, accuracy, reliability, completeness, currency, timeliness, non-infringement, merchantability, or fitness for any purpose. Third party content, websites, services, or systems are not under FPS’s control, and if you choose to access any such content, websites, or services, you do so entirely at your own risk.
