Your personal information will be used only with Rejoining Joy Publishing, Inc., to help complete transactions with us, and to send updates.
What is most important is that, unlike what commercial businesses often do, we do not sell lists of personal information to telemarketers and other such businesses. Your identifying information will not be sold or rented to any party.
Furthermore, we have taken the following steps:
To review, in respect of your privacy, everyone in the company Rejoining Joy Publishing, Inc. follows 10 privacy principles. These principles set standards for how we handle your personal information.
This Privacy Statement is designed to tell individuals with whom we may interact in the course of our business as well as others who purchase our products about our practices regarding collection, use, and disclosure of your personal information, including information you provide over the telephone, by mail, or facsimile and via our Web Site. Rejoining Joy Publishing, Inc. maintains these web sites: http://www.rejoiningjoy.com, and http://www.rejoiningjoy.ca (the “Web Sites”).

We collect personal information from you that you provide voluntarily to us. Such personal information might include personal contact information, such as name, address, and telephone number; your personally identifiable comments/ questions about our products and services, and information required to order our products and services (including credit card information). Information regarding method of payment is collected solely to process orders for products.
We collect personal information about guests and visitors for business purposes. Specifically, visitors to our offices could be asked to provide their name, telephone number, and email.
In some cases, we may collect information about you that is not personal information. Examples of this type of information include the type of Internet Browser you are using.
In addition, please remember that any personal information that is voluntarily posted to any public area of the Web Sites – such as a chat room – may always be accessible to other visitors. There is nothing we can do to prevent collection, use or disclosure of this information by those visitors.
We use and disclose this personal information for the following purposes:
(a) to fulfill your orders, to process your credit card payments, and to collect amounts you owe;
(b) to assess your eligibility for credit that you may have requested from us (not applicable now);
(c) to respond to your requests for information and service and to communicate with you;
(d) to carry out internal financial processes, including to credit our sales representatives;

(i) We might also use or disclose your personal information for other purposes, which we will disclose at the time of collection, or later on, through updates to you.
Your consent to the collection, use and disclosure of personal information may be given in various ways. Consent can be express (express consent may be oral, in writing or electronic), implied (such as when you provide your name and address in order for us to send you products you have ordered or information you have requested) and, in some cases, may be given by your authorized representative (such as a legal guardian or a person having a power of attorney). Generally, if you provide us with your personal information, we will assume that you consent to our collection, use and disclosure of such information as described in this Privacy Policy, if applicable, or otherwise at the time of collection.
Collection, Use, or Disclosure Without Your Consent: In certain limited circumstances our collection, use, or disclosure of your personal information without consent is permitted or required by law, for example, to collect a debt you owe to us or to comply with a subpoena or court order.
What if I do not want my personal information collected, used, or disclosed? If you do not want your personal information collected, used, or disclosed by us, please do one of the following the procedures to “opt out” from the particular purposes of use and disclosure. (1) If you do not want this information used for updates, tell us verbally, by email, in writing, or any means at Privacy Official, Rejoining Joy Publishing, Inc., 106-1333 Sheppard Ave. East., Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M2J 1V1.
