PRIVACY POLICY
The Stonemill Inn is committed to respecting the privacy of individuals who visit our website.
​
This page sets out our privacy policy and describes why and how we collect, use and disclose personal information which you choose to provide to us on our website. This policy doesn’t apply to anyone who isn’t under our control or management, such as the operators of other websites that you might link to from our website. Such operators may have their own privacy policies, which might differ from ours. For more information about links to other websites, please read our Terms of Use.
​
WHAT IS “PERSONAL INFORMATION”?
​
The Stonemill Inn is governed by the Ontario Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. F.31, which defines “personal information” to mean recorded information about any identifiable individual, including his or her name, address, telephone number, email address, age, gender, marital status, personal views, preferences and opinions.
​
HOW WILL WE COLLECT PERSONAL INFORMATION?
​
You are under no obligation to disclose any personal information to us at any time. But if you want to take advantage of all of the website’s features, such as the newsletter or contests, we will ask you to subscribe or enter information. In the process you may be asked to give your name, e-mail address, country, and other basic contest information.
​
Some features of the website need some personal information to work – for example, if you want us to send you newsletters by e-mail, we would need your e-mail address. If you want us to mail you brochures or other printed information, then we would need your mailing address. If you want us to send you newsletters or e-mails that are personalized to your preferences, then we would need you to provide some information about those preferences.
HOW DO WE USE AND DISCLOSE PERSONAL INFORMATION?
​
If you choose to subscribe or enter a contest, we will keep track only of the information and preferences that you choose to provide to us. We will keep that information stored securely on our system and will not release it to any third party without your prior consent.
​
Any personal information you give us will only be used for the purpose of sending you publications, newsletters and notices and promotions; for questionnaires; and for responding to your comments or inquiries. Except for the foregoing, you will not be placed on any mailing lists. None of your personal information will ever be shared, rented, sold or otherwise released to any third party without your prior consent.
