This privacy statement states the rights of Peak and the User, and describes Peak’s practices in relation to any information we collect from the User, and/or that each User provides to us, and the methods that we follow when we maintain and process such information. In this privacy statement, “personal information” refers to the information that can be used to identify the User, including without limitation the User’s name, email address, and telephone number, as well as other data that relates to the User. Below are details of how Peak may collect, maintain, and process the User’s personal information, and the rights that are applicable to the User and to Peak.
By accessing and utilizing the Website, the User acknowledges that Peak may collect and process personal information from the User. If the User does not allow Peak to gather and record personal information, then Peak may not be able to communicate effectively with the User, and Peak may not be able to enter into and/or maintain an ongoing business relationship with the User.
If Peak is gathering, maintaining and/or processing personal information of the User in furtherance of its marketing efforts, then the User may notify Peak at any time to request that Peak ceases this activity. Peak will respect any such request and will take steps to cease this activity.
Currently, Peak does not use any automated tools to process the personal information of the User.
Peak can gather, maintain records of and process the User’s personal information in accordance with applicable laws, and to the extent that:
- the User has given consent to gather, maintain, and process personal information (for example by logging on to the Website);
- the relevant personal information is required in order for Peak to provide the services that the User has requested from Peak (by means of contract or otherwise);
- the relevant personal information is required in order for Peak to satisfy its internal compliance requirements and/or external legal or regulatory requirements; or
- the personal interests, rights and freedoms of the User are not compromised by Peak’s activities related to the personal information, and Peak has a legitimate business reason for such activities (including, without limitation, the reasons set out above in 2 and 3).
The User’s personal information may be disclosed to certain third parties, including Peak’s suppliers and service providers in furtherance of the services Peak provides. This would include information technology consultants, legal advisers, audit firms, and other third parties.

The Website may connect the User to pages and sites that are owned and/or controlled by other parties. Peak has no obligation or liability for any collection or usage of the User’s personal information by such pages and sites, and this privacy statement is not applicable thereto.
Any personal information that the User provides to Peak must be genuine and up to date. The User must comply with Peak’s reasonable requests related to the User’s personal information in a timely and transparent fashion.

Peak will endeavor to take reasonable steps to safeguard the personal information of the User, and to protect it from loss, accidental disclosure or misappropriation.
