Legal Basis for Processing Personal Information

If you are a resident of the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, our processing of your personal data is governed by the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (“GDPR”), the UK General Data Protection Regulation (“UK GDPR”), and applicable national laws. We process your personal data only when we have a valid legal basis, which may include:

  • Where you have provided your explicit, informed, and unambiguous consent for specific purposes, such as receiving marketing communications or allowing cookies and similar technologies (where required by law).
  • Where the processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party or to take steps at your request prior to entering into such a contract. This includes processing required to deliver our services or respond to inquiries.
  • Where processing is necessary to comply with legal and regulatory obligations to which we are subject, including obligations under anti-money laundering (AML), know-your-customer (KYC), tax, or financial services laws.
  •  
  • Where processing is necessary for the purposes of our legitimate interests or those of a third party, provided such interests are not overridden by your rights and freedoms. These legitimate interests may include fraud prevention, network and information security, direct marketing, service optimization, and improving the safety and functionality of our platform.

We may rely on different legal bases for different processing activities, depending on the nature and context of the data involved. Where processing is based on consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

How We Share Information with Others

We may disclose aggregated information about our users, and information that does not identify any individual, without restriction.

We will share your Personal Information with third parties only in the ways that are described in this privacy policy. We do not sell, rent, or otherwise disclose the information we collect to third parties for their promotional purposes, except with your explicit consent as required by applicable privacy laws. These companies are authorized to use your personally identifiable information only as necessary to provide these services to us.

Nevertheless, we may share information about you (including non-public, Personal Information) with:

  • Third-party service providers under contract with Federal Mental Health that help us with our business operations, such as transaction and data processing, data storage, security, fraud prevention, and marketing, market research, and validation of information provided. These third parties are prohibited from using your information for their own separate business purposes.
  • In the event of the sale, acquisition, or merger of some or all of our assets, your Personal Information might be a part of the transferred assets. While you acknowledge that such transfer may occur and that the acquirer may continue to use your Personal Information as set forth in this Policy, we shall nonetheless notify you in the event of such an occurrence, as well as any choices you may have regarding your Personal Information, by placing a notice on our website.
  • Law enforcement, government officials or other third parties, but only
    • in connection with a formal request, subpoena, court order, or similar legal procedure; and,
    • when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to comply with the law, prevent physical harm or financial loss, report suspected illegal activity, or to investigate violations of our Terms of Use.
  • Other third parties that you consent or direct, which may include you authorizing an account linking for a third party service, account and/or platform.
    • For the purposes of this privacy policy, an “account linking” with such a third party is a connection you authorize or enable between your website and a non- Federal Mental Health instrument, or platform. When you authorize such a connection, Federal Mental Health and the third-party may be required to exchange your Personal Information and other information directly. Examples of account connections include: connecting your website to a third-party marketing, data aggregation or financial services company, if you provide such company with your account log-in credentials;
    • Information that we share with a third-party based on an account connection will be used and disclosed in accordance with the third-party’s privacy practices. Federal Mental Health is not responsible for the actions of any third party and the use of information you provide to them. Any information you disclose to a third party is dealt with in accordance with the privacy policies adopted by each of those third parties. Before authorizing an account connection, you should review the privacy notice of any third-party that will gain access to your Personal Information as part of the account connection.
  • For any other purpose disclosed by us when you provide the information.

Your Data Protection Rights

You can access, modify, delete, or update your Personal Information submitted on our website by logging into your account and changing your preferences, by emailing our Customer Service. We will respond to your request to access within 30 days, as required by PIPEDA, unless we notify you that we require an extension. However, we may not accommodate a request to change information if we believe the change would violate any law or legal requirement or cause the information to be incorrect.

We may request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and your right to access, and to provide you with the Personal Information that we hold about you or make your requested changes. Applicable law may allow or require us to refuse to provide you with access to some or all of the Personal Information that we hold about you, or we may have destroyed, erased, or made your Personal Information anonymous in accordance with our record retention obligations and practices. If we cannot provide you with access to your Personal Information, we will inform you of the reasons why, subject to any legal or regulatory restrictions.

We will provide access to your Personal Information, subject to exceptions set out in applicable privacy legislation. Examples of such exceptions include:

  • Information protected by solicitor-client privilege.
  • Information that is part of a formal dispute resolution process.
  • Information that is about another individual that would reveal their Personal Information or confidential commercial information.
  • Information that is prohibitively expensive to provide.

In addition to the rights described above, depending on your location and applicable privacy laws you may also have the right to request restriction of processing, object to certain types of processing (including direct marketing), request data portability, or withdraw your consent where we rely on it. Where applicable, you may also have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, that produces legal or similarly significant effects. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at info@fedmh.com. We will respond in accordance with applicable laws and within a reasonable timeframe.

Withdrawing Your Consent

Where you have provided your consent to the collection, use, and transfer of your personal information, you may have the legal right to withdraw your consent under certain circumstances.

We have put in place SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption technology to protect your sensitive information transmitted through our Website. We also require a username and password from each user who wants to access their information on our Website. However, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

Retention

Except as otherwise permitted or required by applicable law or regulation, we will only retain your Personal Information for as long as necessary to fulfill the specific purposes we collected it for, and we will securely destroy or anonymize Personal Information when it is no longer needed, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. Under some circumstances we may anonymize your Personal Information so that it can no longer be associated with you. We reserve the right to use such anonymous and de-identified data for any legitimate business purpose without further notice to you or your consent.
