Privacy Policy
for
David Robertson Artist Blacksmith
and
The Hammer
and Tongs
As of Jan. 1 , 2004 The Canadian government has required all businesses to develop
a privacy of information policy. This document is in response to that policy, and
outlines how I treat the information that you provide me.
Consent:
I generally
assume that if you provide me with contact information (address, telephone, email,
etc.) that this is giving me consent to use this information to contact you. I do
not sell or trade contact information of individuals, but will refer businesses.
Financial
Info:
Credit card information is not stored on the computer but is kept separate
in a locked filling cabinet. Due to the recent increase in costs associated with
Visa, credit card transactions will be processed on the day of shipping not 30 days
later for wholesale customers. Pay Pal is now another option available.
Contact
Info:
If you are an individual I generally do not pass on your contact information.
If you are a business I will refer your business to people looking for a specific
product or service, either in writing, email or conversation. It becomes the person's
responsibility to look your business up for further contact.
Students:
Occaisionally
while teaching a course I will photograph the students for the purpose of advertising.
This may mean that your picture could be published on the web. In these pictures
I use no name identifiers. I will upon occaission use the information that you have
provided me to send you course updates, or notification of up coming events, or specfic
pieces of information. If you do not wish this form of contact it is your responsibility
to inform me and I will remove you from my mailing list.
I, David Robertson
am the Privacy Officer for the Hammer and Tongs and you may contact
me if you questions about this policy.
