OUR COMMITMENT TO PRIVACY
Fuel Cell LLC (“Fuel Cell LLC”) and its affiliated corporations (each,
a "Fuel Cell LLC") are committed to controlling the collection, use and
disclosure of the personal information provided by its customers and
employees (including full and part time employees, contractors,
volunteers, and prospective employees who provide personal information in
the course of applying for a position at Fuel Cell LLC). This Privacy
Statement is a simplified version of the Fuel Cell LLC Privacy Policy,
which adopts the ten principles of fair information practices suggested by
the Canadian Standards Association Model Code for the Protection of
Personal Information.
A SINGLE POLICY
Any time you do business with a Fuel Cell LLC, or with anyone acting as
an agent on our behalf, you are protected by the rights and safeguards
contained in the Fuel Cell LLC Privacy Policy.
WHAT IS PERSONAL INFORMATION?
"Personal information" is personally identifiable information, and may
include your name, residential address, personal telephone number(s) and
personal e-mail address. Personal information is collected by Fuel Cell
LLC only when you specifically and knowingly choose to provide it us, such
as when you choose to receive information, products or services from a
Fuel Cell LLC or when you apply for a position at a Fuel Cell LLC. We may
also receive personal information from our business partners and other
third parties provided that such third parties confirm to us that they
have obtained your consent to the disclosure of your personal information.
Publicly available information, such as a public directory listing of your
name, address, telephone number and electronic address, is not considered
personal information.
COLLECTION AND USE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
The Fuel Cell LLC collect and use your personal information primarily
for the purpose of providing you with any products and services you have
requested from us or, where applicable, for evaluating your application
for employment by a Fuel Cell LLC. Fuel Cell LLC may also contact you from
time to time to continually improve our product and service offerings.
Unless you specifically authorize us to release your personal information,
or release is required or permitted by law, Fuel Cell LLC will not sell,
lease or trade your personal information to other third parties. Anonymous
or "non-personal" information gathered by Fuel Cell LLC through Fuel Cell
LLC websites may be used for technical, research and analytical purposes.
Fuel Cell LLC will only ask for information about you that we need and
will only ask for it when we need it. When we ask you for the information,
we will explain to you why we need it and what we are going to do with it.
We will seek your prior consent to the collection, use and disclosure of
the information as required by applicable privacy legislation. Subject to
legal and contractual requirements, you can refuse to consent to our
collection, use or disclosure of information about you. You may also
withdraw your consent to any further collection, use or disclosure of
information about you at any time by giving us reasonable notice. If our
intended disclosures or uses of information change, we will notify you
accordingly. Your personal information will not be used for any other
purpose without your consent.
DISCLOSURE
To enable us to more efficiently provide the products and services you
have requested from us or, where applicable, to evaluate your application
for employment by a Fuel Cell LLC, Fuel Cell LLC may share your personal
information with other Fuel Cell LLC and with selected third parties who
are acting on our behalf as our agents, suppliers or service providers.
Such third party service providers are provided only with such information
as is necessary in the circumstances. Information provided to third
parties may be used only for the purpose stipulated and is subject to
strict terms of confidentiality.
