At Computershare, we take privacy seriously. In the course of providing services to our corporate clients and other customers, and in meeting the service needs of their investors, we receive personal information about individuals, perhaps including yourself. Protecting your privacy and the confidentiality of your personal information is important to us, and is a fundamental part of our day-to-day business operations.

What is Personal Information?
Personal information (or “PI”) is any piece of information, either factual or subjective, about an identifiable individual. But personal information does not include business contact information if it is being used for the purpose of communicating with an individual in relation to their employment, business or profession*.
Computershare may receive personal information about you from you directly but we may also receive information about you from a third party authorized by you, such as the issuing company, your broker, a class action defendant or another intermediary acting on your behalf. As another example, we will obtain information about you if you participate in an employee stock ownership plan, dividend reinvestment plan, or retirement savings plan that we administer. Depending on the type of plan or service we administer, we may receive this information from enrollment forms you complete, through transactions we perform for you, from your employer (if it is sponsoring the plan) and through other communications. This personal information could include your name, contact details (such as residential address, correspondence address, email address), financial information (including account details, securities holdings and transactions), a copy of a government issued photo ID (such as passport, driver’s license) and related facial recognition (biometric) data, date of birth, identification details/numbers (including SINs, SSNs), survey responses.

Our Approach to Privacy
Computershare collects, uses or discloses personal information for many purposes: to administer your account, to undertake transactions you direct, to mail you dividend cheques or Annual Reports, to conduct tax or other reporting required by law, for other lawful purposes relating to the services we are providing and to better serve your and our clients’ needs. To us, that includes treating your personal information with appropriate safeguards and with respect. Each Computershare employee and representative is familiar with the procedures that must be adhered to in order to keep your information secure and must abide by our commitment to privacy.
