Your personal and non-personal data are collected in various ways in connection with our websites, services, and your devices. In many cases, the information is provided directly by you. For example, you may be required to provide personal information in the following situations:

  • Submitting a paper form or transmitting information online or by phone;

  • Visiting and interacting with our websites.

Use and Disclosure of Information

We use your information for business purposes and to provide you with monitoring services. Your information may be shared with third-party service providers and emergency service providers to deliver or improve our services. We may share your information for legal reasons, including cooperation with law enforcement, upon receiving valid requests, to protect our rights, or in the event of a full or partial sale of our company.

We do not sell your information to third parties for their own business purposes. We may share your information with partners, service providers, retailers, distributors, agents, or subcontractors engaged by Global Sécurité Alerte to perform services on our behalf (including authorized Global Sécurité Alerte distributors and third-party monitoring centers) to provide you with certain services and achieve our business objectives as described above. Global Sécurité Alerte will only share your personal information with third parties if their use or disclosure is contractually limited to the performance of services on our behalf or compliance with legal requirements. These companies may use your personal information only within the scope of the services we assign to them, unless you have authorized them to use it for other purposes. If you no longer wish to share your personal information for this purpose, we will give you the opportunity to revoke such authorization.

To deliver our services, we share your information with individuals listed in your contact list and third-party emergency services such as police, fire, and emergency medical services. We may also disclose your information for legal reasons, such as complying with subpoenas or court orders, cooperating with law enforcement, or when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, safety, or that of others, to investigate fraud, or to respond to a government request. We may also transfer your information to a third party in the event of a reorganization, merger, sale, joint venture, assignment, transfer, or other disposition of all or part of our business, assets, or stock.

Global Sécurité Alerte is committed to ensuring the security and integrity of personal information. We have adopted reasonable physical, technical, and administrative procedures to safeguard your personal information. However, due to the nature of Internet communications, we cannot guarantee or warrant that your transmissions are secure.
