Privacy Policy for The Leo Panitch School for Socialist Education


The event organiser, The Leo Panitch School for Socialist Education, has the legal responsibility to tell ticket buyers and event attendees how their personal information will be collected and used. You can find their Privacy Policy below or contact them to request it.


Introduction

This policy sets out how we collect, process and hold your personal data if you provide personal data to us. We are The Leo Panitch School for Socialist Education of 720 Bathurst Street, Toronto ON.

As an organisation that hosts public events, it is sometimes necessary to collect information from attendees to ensure the smooth operation of such events, and to allow us to communicate with past and future attendees. 

This policy affects your legal rights and obligations so please read it carefully. If you have any questions, please contact us at info@leopanitchschool.ca.

Personal data we collect

We collect, process, store and use personal data when you register for an event including your name, address and email address. We may also collect personal data that you give to us about other people if you register them to attend an event. You agree that you have notified any other person whose personal data that you provide to us of this privacy notice and, where necessary, obtained their consent so that we can lawfully process their personal data in accordance with this policy.

All personal data that you provide to us must be true, complete and accurate.

You do not need to provide us with personal data to attend one of our events. If you are uncomfortable sharing personal data with us but would still like to participate, please contact us at info@leopanitchschool.ca.


Marketing Communications

If you opt in to receive communications from us by registering for an event, you consent to the processing of your data to send you such communications, which may include newsletters, blog posts, surveys and information about new events.

You can choose to no longer receive marketing communications by contacting us at info@leopanitchschool.ca or clicking unsubscribe from a marketing email. If you do unsubscribe to communications, it may take up to 5 days for your new preferences to take effect. We shall therefore retain your personal data in our records for communication purposes until you notify us that you no longer wish to receive marketing emails from us.

Lawful processing of your personal data

We will use your personal data in order to comply with our contractual obligation to supply to you your tickets to an event and any associated products and services, including to contact you with any information relating to the event or your purchases, to deliver the event and your purchases to you in accordance with any requests you make and that we agree to, and to deal with any questions, comments or complaints you have in relation to the event or your purchases.

We may also use your personal data for our legitimate interests, including dealing with any customer services you require, enforcing the terms of any other agreement between us, for regulatory and legal purposes (for example anti-money laundering), for audit purposes and to contact you about changes to this policy.

Who do we share your data with?

Your data is only accessible by authorized staff or selected volunteers of the Leo Panitch School for Socialist Education. We do not and will not share your data with any third party without your expressed consent.

Cookies

A cookie is a small text file containing a unique identification number that is transferred (through your browser) from a website to the hard drive of your computer. The cookie identifies your browser but will not let a website know your name and/or address. These files are then used by websites to identify when users revisit that website.

Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies. You can change your browser settings either to notify you when you have received a cookie, or to refuse to accept cookies. Please note that our event ticket shop may not operate efficiently if you refuse to accept cookies.

We also use Google Analytics to monitor how the event ticket shop is used. Google Analytics collects information anonymously and generates reports detailing information such as the number of visits to the event ticket shop, where visitors generally came from, how long they stayed on the event ticket shop, and which pages they visited. Google Analytics places several persistent cookies on your computer's hard drive. If you do not agree to this you can disable persistent cookies in your browser. This will prevent Google Analytics from logging your visits.

Security

We shall process your personal data in a manner that ensures appropriate security of the personal data, including protection against unauthorised or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction or damage, using appropriate technical or organisational measures. All information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers. Any payment transactions are encrypted using SSL technology.

Where we have given, or you have chosen a password, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential.

However, you acknowledge that no system can be completely secure. Therefore, although we take these steps to secure your personal data, we do not promise that your personal data will always remain completely secure.

Your rights

You have the right to obtain from us a copy of the personal data that we hold for you, and to require us to correct errors in the personal data if it is inaccurate or incomplete. You also have the right at any time to require that we delete your personal data. To exercise these rights, or any other rights you may have under applicable laws, please contact us at info@leopanitchschool.ca.
