Thank you for visiting Total Diving's website. Please be assure that your privacy is very important to us - just like we value our own privacy as individuals.

Total Diving Canada Inc. and Waddell Aquatics Ltd. ("Total Diving", "we", "us", "our") are committed to preserving and safeguarding your right to privacy. As part of this commitment, we want you to be fully aware of what happens to the personal information we collect through our website located at www.TotalDiving.com (the "Website"). Accordingly, this Total Diving Website Privacy Statement sets out the manner in which we will collect, use, disclose and otherwise manage your personal information.

Collection of Personal Information

You may visit our Website without providing any of your personal information to us.

The only personal information that we collect through our Website is personal information that you voluntarily provide to us through the contact us portion of the Website when you choose to send an email to someone at Total Diving, or by filling up various forms available throughout the Website when you choose to use one or some of these forms.

Otherwise, we may automatically collect general anonymous information related to your use of our Website, such as the date and time you visit the Website and the pages you consult. The hosting servers may also automatically collect information about the type of browser you use, the name of your Internet Service Provider and your IP address. In addition, we may collect "cookie" information from your browser to identify your computer and provide us with a record of your visits to our Website (collectively, the foregoing is referred to as "Usage Data"). This information does not result in the identification of your personal eMail address or other personal information. The technology used to gather “cookie” information is provided by the Internet browser you use and is stored on your computer. You may set your browser to disable or refuse to accept cookies, although doing so may affect your viewing of certain portions of our Website.

Use of Personal Information

Any personal information you provide to us when you send us an eMail is only used to identify who you are in order to respond to the purpose for which you submitted the message. Any personal information you provide to us when you fill up a form is used solely for the purpose stated in that form.

We use Usage Data for the purposes of monitoring and improving the content and features of the Total Diving Website.

Disclosure of Personal Information

Except as expressly set out in this Privacy Statement, Total Diving will not transfer, sell or otherwise disclose any of your personal information to any third party without your prior written consent. Certain personal information may be disclosed to third parties for the purposes of answering your request, for issuing certification cards and/or certificates for the courses that you have completed, for issuing Government permits, for registering your warranty and service records for the equipment that you purchase from us or have serviced by us, or for answering your questions. We may also disclose your personal information to third parties that may administer or manage on-line services on our behalf.

Third Party Links

The Website include links to third party websites. These linked sites have separate and independent privacy policies which we recommend you read carefully. We have no control over such sites and therefore have no responsibility or liability for the manner in which the organizations who operate such linked sites may collect, use, disclose or otherwise treat your personal information.

Security of Personal Information

To the extend possible, we will maintain your personal information in secure data storage to safeguard it from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. We will maintain the strict confidentiality of all personal information collected and will only disclose such information on a confidential basis to employees and third parties who require such information for the purposes set out above. We will only keep your personal information for as long as it remains necessary or relevant for the purposes stated above or as otherwise required by law, regulations and industry standards.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, you should be aware that, unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be secure. As a result, Total Diving does not represent, warrant or guarantee that personal information will be protected against loss, misuse or alteration and does not accept any liability for personal information submitted by you, nor for your or third parties' use or misuse of personal information.

Changes to Website Privacy Statement

If we decide to change our Privacy Statement, we will post those changes on our Website so you are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it. If at any point we decide to use personal information in a manner different from that stated at the time it was collected, you will have a choice as to whether or not we use your information in this different manner.
