MARYOS ACCOUNTING SERVICES INC. is committed to ensuring that you are aware of how your personal information is used. We will not collect, use, or disclose your personal information without your consent. By providing us with your personal information for the purposes listed above, you consent to our collection and use of the information for those purposes. With respect to personal information that you provide for the preparation of your tax and other returns, you consent to our transmitting such personal information to the appropriate government or regulatory authorities.
If we wish to collect your personal information for purposes other than stated above, we may request that you consent, verbally or in writing, to such collection. If we wish to use personal information that we have already collected, for a purpose other than stated above, then we will first seek your consent to such use.
We may periodically request written confirmation from you to ensure that the personal information collected and maintained by us is up-to-date and accurate. We also may ensure that we have your continuing consent to the use and retention of your personal information.
You have the right to refuse or withdraw your consent to the collection, use, and disclosure of your personal information at any time. In some cases such refusal or withdrawal may prohibit or adversely affect the completion of our professional engagement. We will advise you if that is the case.
MARYOS ACCOUNTING SERVICES INC. will disclose your personal information, for other than the purposes stated above, only if required to do so by law. We will notify you of any such disclosure and provide you with the reason that obligates us to release the personal information.
MARYOS ACCOUNTING SERVICES INC. restricts the collection of personal information only to that information that is necessary for the limited purposes noted above. We are committed to collecting personal information in a fair, open and lawful manner.
For this reason, our firm does not indiscriminately collect personal information. We collect personal information to fulfill the above-noted purposes only, and for no other purposes.
MARYOS ACCOUNTING SERVICES INC. does not use personal information for purposes other than those for which it was originally collected, unless it has first obtained the consent of the person from whom such information was received. We retain personal information only for as long as it is needed and only for the fulfillment of the purposes for which it was originally collected.
MARYOS ACCOUNTING SERVICES INC. is committed to maintaining accurate, complete and up-to-date personal information. If you are aware of changes to the personal information you have given to us, simply inform us of the changes and we will update our records accordingly.
MARYOS ACCOUNTING SERVICES INC. has developed and implemented security safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the personal information kept by us. These security safeguards include physical security measures, such as locked cabinet storage and restricted access to areas where personal information is stored.
We have and will continue to take every safeguard to protect the confidentiality of electronically transferred personal information, but may not guarantee absolute assurance that it will not be compromised during transmission.
Each and every one of our employees is responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of all personal information to which they have access. Our employees are trained to know and respect our privacy policy, and compliance with our policies and procedures for protecting personal information is a condition of their employment.
Any personal information kept by us is disposed of or destroyed once it is no longer needed to meet the purposes for which it was collected.
We are pleased to answer any questions that you may have regarding the collection and maintenance of personal information. Please forward any questions in writing or email to info@maryos.ca
