Introduction
Navigator Ltd. (“Navigator” or “we”) is committed to keeping our clients’ information confidential, consistent with our obligations as professionals. This commitment extends to personal information of our clients and other individuals (“you”). This Privacy Commitment has been designed to assist you in understanding the type of information we collect, how we use that information and the safeguards we have in place to protect that information and your privacy.
Collection, Use and Disclosure of Personal Information
Canadian privacy legislation defines “Personal Information” broadly as information about an identifiable individual or as information that allows an individual to be identified. For the purposes of this policy, Personal Information means information about an identifiable individual as defined from time to time in applicable privacy legislation. Generally, Personal Information does not include your name, business address or business contact information, such as your business title, email address or phone numbers, which you provide to us for business purposes.
Navigator generally collects Personal Information that you voluntarily provide, but we may collect information from third parties and as agents on behalf of our clients where we or they have obtained the requisite consent, or as otherwise permitted or required by law. Examples of types of Personal Information that Navigator may collect about you includes your name, home address, telephone number, personal e-mail address, billing and account information, information about a client issue and other information incidental to providing our advice and services (including Personal Information about individuals involved in your issue, including directors, officers, employees, decision-makers, experts, other professional advisors and our clients’ business partners, investors, shareholders, competitors and customers whom are individuals).We may also collect information through our website, although that information is typically restricted to your name, home address, and/or email address .
We will obtain your consent prior to collecting, using or disclosing Personal Information for any purpose, except where otherwise permitted or required by law. Consent may be provided orally or in writing or may be implied, such as where you continue to provide Personal Information to us in the context of our ongoing relationship, or where you provide members of Navigator with non-business contact information in connection with our service offerings. By providing Personal Information to Navigator, you consent to our collection, use and disclosure of such Personal Information in accordance with this Privacy Commitment and as permitted or required by law. To the extent that you provide Personal Information of another individual to Navigator, you represent that you have the necessary consent or authority to permit us to collect, use and disclose such Personal Information for the purposes set out in this Commitment.
Navigator collects, uses and discloses Personal Information primarily to provide advice and other services to clients and prospective clients, for administrative and relationship management purposes (including to develop and manage our knowledge management systems, and to market and deliver Navigator services) and as otherwise permitted or required by law.
Navigator only keeps Personal Information as long as it is required for the reasons it was collected or to comply with law or professional standards.

Your Personal Information is treated as private, confidential information by Navigator and we strive to ensure that your Personal Information, regardless of format, is protected and kept secure at all times.
