For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, the following terms will have the following meanings: “Business Contact Information” means your business position, name or title, business address, business telephone
number, business email address and business fax number. “Personal Information” means information about an identifiable individual, but does not include Business Contact Information or general, statistical or
aggregated information. Personal Information includes a name, home address, date of birth, contact information (including personal telephone number and personal e-mail address), employment status, and income. We
will identify the purpose for collecting your Personal Information when we request such information. We collect Personal Information only as necessary to provide services to you and will not use or disclose your

Providing Services, Sharing Information and Surveys. Your Personal Information may be collected and used by Willow Tree to provide services to you via our Website or otherwise. Your Personal Information may be
used by Willow Tree so that we can share information about Willow Tree, the Website, and our Services with you. We may use your Personal Information to communicate with you regarding your inquiries for
information or other issues as they relate to your use of the Website and the Services, and based on your Personal Information, we may send you personalized promotions or offers. We may also invite you to
participate in online customer surveys. If you choose to participate in such surveys, we may use the Personal Information that you may provide to contact you or to improve our Services.
Project Information. You may provide your Personal Information to us by completing a form in one of our properties. We will use the information requested on the sign-up forms only for the purpose of facilitating
communication with you about the project and future Willow Tree projects. We may also use the information to allow us to tailor our future projects to meet your interests.
Service Analysis. When you use our Website, a cookie may be placed within the memory of your internet access device. We may use permanent cookies or server-side artifacts to help us track use of our services by
users, including casual visitors to the Website—such as (without limitation) the number and frequency of visits to our pages and which parts of our Website are visited. Similarly, we may also collect information
regarding the type of device, your operating system, the browser you use, your internet service provider, your domain name, your internet protocol (IP) address, the date and time that you accessed our service,
the website that referred you to our Website, the web pages you requested and the subject of the ads you click or scroll over, and use such information to evaluate Website performance and service quality. To
collect this information, we use cookies, web beacons and similar technologies. We may also use your Personal Information to detect, prevent or investigate security breaches or fraud, to protect our business and
to maintain appropriate records for internal administrative purposes.
We may also use your Personal Information for such other purposes as may be introduced to this Privacy Policy from time to time upon notice being given to you. For greater certainty, you hereby agree that
sufficient notice includes making the Privacy Policy available on the Website. You may withdraw your consent to collect, use and disclose Personal Information by contacting us. You may further choose to
unsubscribe from receiving emails from us at any time, but you may no longer be able to access our Services if you withdraw your consent.
2. OUR DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
Willow Tree may disclose Personal Information if a law, regulation, search warrant, subpoena or court order legally requires or authorizes us to do so. We will use reasonable efforts to ensure that any third
party to whom Personal Information is disclosed provide a comparable level of protection for your Personal Information, as provided in this Privacy Policy.
Additionally, Willow Tree reserves the right to disclose and to transfer Personal Information to a third party in the event of a proposed or actual purchase, sale, merger, amalgamation, or any other type of
acquisition, disposition, or financing of all or any portion of Willow Tree or any of the assets or shares of Willow Tree, provided that the third party represents that it will continue to use the information for
the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy and in accordance with applicable privacy laws.
3. RETENTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
We routinely destroy Personal Information that is no longer required for the purposes described herein, in accordance with applicable laws.
4. ACCURACY OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
Willow Tree uses reasonable and appropriate measures, including encryption software, designed to help you secure your Personal Information against accidental or unlawful loss, access or disclosure. Only staff and
service providers who have a legitimate business purpose for accessing the Personal Information collected by us are authorized to do so. Unauthorized use of Personal Information by anyone affiliated with Willow
Tree is prohibited and constitutes grounds for disciplinary action.
You and you alone are responsible for ensuring that you do not disclose your account access information to third parties. This includes but is not limited to not disclosing such information to anyone, ensuring
that sufficient security software is installed and running on your computer, smartphone or tablet, that your network firewall is of sufficient quality and that your wireless connection is encrypted to a degree
that will prevent third party access. Willow Tree is not responsible for any failure by you to secure your 2 own device and its access to the Internet or your use of public, unsecured networks. Willow Tree also
is not responsible for any failure by you to eliminate malware. These failures and others can make you vulnerable to privacy breaches and would put you and your data at risk.
5. LINKS TO THIRD PARTY SITES
The use of our services may lead you to third party websites. Those organizations are separate and distinct from Willow Tree and have their own separate privacy policies. We are not responsible in any way for how
any third party collects, uses or discloses your Personal Information, so it is important to familiarize yourself with the privacy policies of these websites before providing your Personal Information to them.
6. INDIVIDUAL ACCESS
Upon written request to info@willowtreehomes.ca, you will be informed of the existence, use and disclosure of your Personal Information, and will be given access to that Personal Information. Willow Tree provides
an opportunity for individuals to challenge the accuracy and completeness of their Personal Information and have it amended as appropriate.
7. CONTACTING US
