Folk’d Up Radio and Records is committed to safeguarding the personal information
entrusted to us by our clients. We manage your personal information in accordance
with New Brunswick’s Personal Information Protection Act and other applicable laws.
This policy outlines the principles and practices we follow in protecting your personal
information. This policy applies to Folk’d Up Radio and Records and to any person providing
services on our behalf. A copy of this policy is provided to any client on request.
What is personal information?
Personal information means information about an identifiable individual. This includes
an individual’s name, home address and phone number, age, sex, marital or family
status, an identifying number, financial information, educational history, etc.
What personal information do we collect?
We collect only the personal information that we need for the purposes of providing
services to our clients, including personal information needed to:
– deliver requested products and services
– enrol a client in a program
– send out association membership information
We normally collect client personal information directly from our clients. We may
collect your information from other persons with your consent or as authorized by law.
We inform our clients, before or at the time of collecting personal information, of the
purposes for which we are collecting the information. The only time we don’t provide
this notification is when a client volunteers information for an obvious purpose (for
example, producing a credit card to pay a membership fee when the information will
be used only to process the payment).
Consent
We ask for consent to collect, use or disclose client personal information, except in
specific circumstances where collection, use or disclosure without consent is
authorized or required by law. We may assume your consent in cases where you
volunteer information for an obvious purpose.
We assume your consent to continue to use and, where applicable, disclose personal
information that we have already collected, for the purpose for which the information
was collected.
