Privacy Statement 

Protecting your privacy

An important part of the Team Brandon Ambassador Program is our commitment to maintaining the security, confidentiality and accuracy of all personal information we collect from Ambassadors. The following principles outline our commitment to this.

Collecting personal information

Either before or when we collect personal information, we explain what that information will be used for and ask for your consent for it to be used in those ways. We won't collect information beyond what is relevant to the program, and we will not use personal information for anything beyond what you have agreed to. Your personal information is protected by the Protection of Privacy provisions of The Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act.

Disclosing personal information

We will not share personal information we have without your permission. The only exception to this is when we need to share information with a support or service provider in order to carry out the Team Brandon Ambassador campaign. When we disclose information to a third party, we do this on a confidential basis to ensure that the other party handles this information securely and uses it only for the purposes that we and you have authorized. We never make our Ambassadors list available to companies that are not affiliated with Team Brandon.

Protecting personal information

Ambassador information is at all times protected with appropriate safeguards and security measures. We keep personal information only as long as we need it in order to fulfill the purposes for which it was obtained or as long as you are a participant in Team Brandon Ambassador Program; and we do our best to ensure that information we have about each Ambassador is always accurate and up-to-date.

Providing access to personal information

You may at any time inquire about the personal information we have about you. We'll explain what information we have, how we use it, and to whom we may disclose it. If you believe any of the information we have about you is incorrect, you can request that it be changed.

Using personal information

We use Ambassador information, with permission, to provide you with information we think you may be interested in as an Ambassador, such as the Team Brandon Ambassador newsletter, as well as e-mail updates on breaking or exciting Brandon news, events, and business or networking opportunities that may be of interest to you.

Giving and changing your consent

When you enroll in Team Brandon Ambassador Program, we ask you to complete a form and indicate your communications preferences and other program options, thereby giving your consent for us to contact you and provide you with the information you have requested. If you wish to change these preferences or withdraw consent at any time, just contact us and we will make the changes.

You Belong in Brandon

“I arrived from the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) five years ago, to assume the role of Vice-President Academic at Assiniboine Community College. Two years ago, I accepted the President’s job without reservation, due in large part to the opportunities afforded me by this vibrant community. Brandon has much to offer – an active arts community, a college and a university as well as all the amenities you would expect in a city approaching fifty thousand people.
