Types of Personal Information We Collect

CanPharmCo™ gathers and uses only such information that is necessary for providing our services and fulfilling your orders. It typically includes the following personal information: name, mailing address, e-mail address, telephone numbers, occupation, employment status, referral source, the name of your primary physician and his or her contact information, age, height, weight, sex, date of birth, the existence and types of drug allergies, medications requested, family medical history information, your personal medical history information, details of your existing medications, credit card information (including card type and number, expiry date and name of card holder), banking information (including transit and account numbers) and prescription information. The choice to provide us with personal information is always yours. However, your decision to withhold particular details may limit the products and services we are able to provide and make it more difficult for us to advise you or suggest appropriate alternatives. If we are unable to accommodate your request based on the information that has been provided, we may ask for additional details in order to identify other ways to be of assistance. We may also maintain a file containing contact history for customer inquiry purposes.

Anonymous/Non-Personal Information

Anonymous/non-personal information is information that cannot be associated with or traced back to a specific individual or business entity.

Purposes for Using Your Personal Information

We use your personal information to communicate with you, enhance your visit to our website, process your prescription orders, and effectively provide the products and services you have requested. We may provide your personal information to an affiliated company, a licensed pharmacy, or to a prescribing physician in order to fulfill your prescription.

We may also use your personal information to offer additional products and services sold by CanPharmCo™. In the event of a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of CanPharmCo™, records containing personal information may be transferred to the purchaser. We will not furnish your personal information to an outside organization for its use in marketing or solicitation without your prior consent.

We only use your personal information for the purposes that we have disclosed to you. If for any reason your information is required to fulfill a different purpose, we will notify you and ask for your consent before proceeding.

In some instances, such as a legal proceeding or court order, we may be required to disclose certain information to authorities. Only the information specifically requested is disclosed, and we ensure that the requesting authorities have legitimate grounds.

In certain situations, we are legally permitted to disclose personal information, such as when employing reasonable and legal methods to collect a delinquent account, in a medical emergency, or when suspecting illegal activities.

We sometimes contract external organizations to perform specialized services. Our trusted service suppliers may, at times, handle some of the personal information we receive from you.

When you visit our website, information that can personally identify you is not collected unless you choose to provide it voluntarily. You may browse our website anonymously without revealing any personal information.

We use current technologies and maintain security standards to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or misuse. Electronic files are kept in secure, restricted environments, and paper files are stored in secure areas.

Our server environment and firewall infrastructure are strictly maintained, and our security practices are periodically reviewed. We employ current technologies to safeguard the confidentiality and privacy of your information.

Access to personal information is limited to authorized employees who have a legitimate business purpose. All employees of CanPharmCo™ are required to sign confidentiality agreements, adhere to our privacy standards, and comply with all applicable laws and regulations. Unauthorized access or disclosure by an employee is strictly prohibited and may result in disciplinary action, including dismissal.
