How We Collect and Use Your Personal Information |
| |
|
| |
Processing of Subscriptions |
| |
|
| |
When
you subscribe to our service, we ask for your personal
information, including but not limited to, email address
and a password, for your name, postal address, telephone
number and a valid credit card number. We use this information
to process your rental requests and to ship requested
or ordered DVDs to you. We will also use your telephone
number for the sole purpose of contacting you in the
event of shipping or order-related issues, and not for
marketing or other purposes.
We use your email address to notify
you that DVDs in your rental list or shopping cart have
been shipped to you, to answer inquiries that you send
to us, and to communicate with you when necessary concerning
billing, the administration of your account and the
processing of your rental or purchase requests. As these
functions are necessary to the proper administration
of your subscription account, we do not offer an opt-out
from such email communication.

|
| |
Rental History |
| |
|
| |
We
track and retain your order history. You can access
your order history in the My Pyasa section of the website.
This information is available to you alone and is not
disclosed to other users, members or unaffiliated third
parties. |

|
| |
Email for Marketing Purposes |
| |
|

Pyasa.Ca
does not have any plans to use your email address for
marketing purposes. However, should this change, Pyasa.Ca will
offer you an opportunity to opt-out of receiving different
types of marketing email communications from us. We will make
the opt-out options available to you in the My Pyasa section. |

services to assist it in assessing and improving the
subscription service. Pyasa.ca does not use personal
information in generating such analysis, nor does it
relate this information to any individual member. |
