Privacy
At Columbia Fire & Safety Ltd. , we are committed to protecting your privacy. You can travel through most of columbiasafety.com without giving us any information about yourself. But sometimes we do need information to provide services that you request, and this statement of privacy explains data collection and use in those situations.
Please read this complete privacy statement.
Collecting Your Personal Information
The Canadian Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act defines personal information as any of the following: name, age, weight, height, medical records, income, purchases and spending habits, race, ethnic origin and color, blood type, DNA code, fingerprints, marital status and religion, education, home address, and telephone number.
We will ask you when we need information that identifies you personally or allows us to contact you.
In general, we request limited personal information when you order email newsletters, enter contests, contact us through one of the email forms on our web site, or purchase our products.
The personal information we ask you to provide often is limited to your email address but may include other information that could identify you personally.
For instance, if you choose to make a purchase from our web site, we will request personal information such as your name, email address, shipping address, billing address, and telephone number. We do not actually receive your credit card information ourselves. This is handled exclusively by InternetSecure and is protected by their privacy policy available at internetsecure.com.

Use of IP Resolution Technology
When you visit our web site, we automatically log your IP address with our web analytics software. (An IP address is the unique address that identifies your computer on the Internet.)

Use of Cookies
