Privacy Policy

Effective Date: March 1st, 2020

Coin Nerds Inc., may be referred to in this Privacy Policy as “we,” “us,” “our” or other similar pronouns. This privacy policy (“Policy” or “Privacy Policy”) outlines, in general, the Personal Information (as defined herein) and other information that is collected by us from consumers and how we use and protect it. This Policy governs your use of our consumer-directed websites (the “sites” or “websites”) and collection of data through both online means and offline means.

Introduction

At Coin Nerds, we take data security very seriously. Safeguarding your data and privacy is at the top of our priority list having been established as one of our key pillars to success. You have entrusted us with your personal information and we intend to use every tool at our disposal to keep it out of the hands of bad actors.

To start, we limit the use, disclosure and retention of your information. That means we only collect data that is absolutely necessary to comply with Anti-Money Laundering and Know-Your-Customer requirements set out by FINTRAC and always ensuring PIPEDA guidelines are incorporated into policies and procedures that come in contact with your information. We utilize best-in-class encryption protocols for both data-at-rest and data-in-transit. We employ routine penetration tests and dynamic threat models to get ahead of and defend against new vulnerabilities and cyber-attacks.

Our initiatives are underpinned by a firm belief that there are no shortcuts in cyber security. Being a successful business to us means your data is as secure as your funds.

You May be Contacted

Should you contact us in any form for the purpose of ordering our products, we consider such an inquiry for a return contact. As such, we may contact you via telephone in order to follow up with you and help you complete you order. Accordingly, even if your contact information appears on any state or federal Do Not Contact lists, you acknowledge in such a case that you may receive a telephone call or other contact from us pursuant to your express business inquiry or transaction. You may stop us from calling you at any time by simply asking us to refrain from further calls to you. We maintain an internal no-call list and abide by all applicable laws relating to such.

We may use cookies to collect information during and about your visits to our websites, such as the particular site areas you visit and the products or services you buy through our websites. Cookies may also be used to recognize that you have provided Personal Information to us and refrain from requesting the same information a second time (e.g., a username and/or password, or an e-mail address or other contact information).

Such information may be used to personalize your web site experience, and to evaluate statistics about usage of our websites. Such information may be used anonymously and in the aggregate or may be linked to your Personal Information. Also, our server may record your activities as you navigate to, on and from our websites.

We may use pixel tags (also called clear gifs) or other similar tracking technologies in our websites and/or in our communications to collect information about your navigation on our websites, and to enable us to know whether you have visited a Web page or received a message.
