PLEASE NOTE THAT BY CONTINUING TO USE THIS SITE, YOU ARE PROVIDING YOUR CONSENT TO THE COLLECTION, USE, DISCLOSURE, AND RETENTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION AS SET OUT IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IN SOME CASES, YOUR CONSENT MAY BE “IMPLIED” I.E. YOUR PERMISSION IS ASSUMED BASED ON YOUR ACTION OR INACTION AT THE POINT OF COLLECTION, USE OR SHARING OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION.

Personal information includes any information that can be used to identify or contact you, such as your name, address, email address, telephone number, or Social Security/Insurance number. Perform does not collect personal information unless it is voluntarily provided. We may use personal information only as required or permitted by law, including to verify your identity or to respond to requests or inquiries from you.

We do not sell, share, or rent information collected on this site to others in ways different from what is disclosed on this Privacy Policy.

We limit the collection of personal information to what is reasonably required to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected. We collect personal information in the following ways:

Information You Provide Directly to Us
We collect information that you provide to us when you inquire about or purchase products and/or services through this website or your use of any of our programs, content, or materials.

We may also collect personal information about you from third parties, such as consumer reporting agencies, your contacts, a social media site, or a plug-in you use to log into or connect to this website. We may associate or combine the information you provide through this website with the information collected from third parties.

We may use different social media websites and applications to interact with you. Any information collected about you from our interactions with you or other users (e.g., any users who are connections of yours) is subject to the requirements and restrictions set out in our social media best practices.

Information Automatically Collected
When you use this website, the server may automatically recognize you by a “cookie” or other tracking technology. These technologies act as unique identifiers and allow us to tailor this website to your specified interests and keep track of your activity on this website. This information may be added to your user profile and used to deliver offers and advertisements that we believe are relevant to your interests.

Furthermore, we may retrieve certain information from your browser (e.g., browser type, referrer URL, date and time of your visit, IP address) and device (e.g., MAC address, device type, screen resolution, and OS version). We use this information to monitor the performance of this website, analyze traffic patterns and usage, ensure that this website, and any related transactions function properly, and that they gather demographic information about our user base as a whole. This information may also be appended to your user profile so that we may further tailor this website to your interests and send you offers based on such information.

Our advertisers, publishers, and other third-party partners may also utilize third-party cookies and other tracking technologies like clear pixel GIFs (i.e., Web beacons) to identify you and monitor your activity on our website.

You can opt out of some of our third-party partners’ use of cookies and other technologies at http://optout.aboutads.info.

Tracking Options and California Do Not Track Disclosures
Certain parts of this website require “cookie” technologies (e.g., pixel tags), and we may use them to deliver more relevant advertising and to link data collected across other devices you use. You can adjust your settings to limit tracking (e.g., cookies or pixel tags), but as a result, you may not be able to use certain features of this website or take full advantage of all of our offerings. Please refer to your device or browser settings for more information on how to delete or decline cookies and control your tracking preferences.

We may process and store your personal information outside of your province, state or country of residence, including in the United States and Canada. Where personal information is located outside your jurisdiction of residence, it is subject to the laws of that jurisdiction which may differ from those in your jurisdiction and any personal information transferred to another jurisdiction will be subject to law enforcement, local courts, and national security authorities in that jurisdiction.

These standards include reasonable administrative, physical, and technical safeguards, such as encrypting sensitive information. Understand, however, that no security system is impenetrable. We cannot guarantee the security of our databases, and please understand that email or other communications over the Internet, as well as SMS or text messages, are not secure and may be intercepted while being transmitted to and from us over the Internet, by WiFi, or other means. We strongly recommend that e-mail messages do not contain personal or confidential information, particularly highly identifiable, sensitive information such as your Social Security number and driver’s license information.

This website is not intended for minors under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under the age of 18. In the event we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under age 18 without verification of parental consent, we will delete that information. If you have any questions or concerns about the collection of the personal information of children, please contact us online or the address below.

Access, Correction, and Deletion
To submit a verifiable privacy request to access what personal information we may have, or to request deletion, or correction, you may contact customer service. For existing policyholders, you may be asked to verify your identity through the existing authentication procedures, and we may re-authenticate you to verify your identity. For non-policyholders, we will verify a consumer’s identity by matching at least two or three consumer-provided data points with data points that we maintain, depending on the sensitivity of the information involved.

Consent
You may withdraw your consent at any time, except in limited circumstances, including legal or regulatory requirements or as a result of your contractual obligations with us by contacting customer service. If you choose not to provide us with certain personal information or if you withdraw your consent, where such withdrawal is available, we may not be able to offer you the products or services that you requested or that could be offered to you.

We will only retain your personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, regulatory, tax, accounting or reporting requirements. We may retain your personal information for a longer period in the event of a complaint or if we reasonably believe there is a prospect of litigation in respect to our relationship with you.

When your personal information is no longer necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, or any other legal purpose, we will securely destroy or anonymize your personal information.

We may change this Privacy Policy from time to time without notice. The most current policy will be posted on this website. You are encouraged to review this online Privacy Policy regularly.
