This page informs you of our policies regarding the collection, use and disclosure of Personal Information when you use our Service.
Your privacy is important to us. We are committed to protecting and respecting your privacy. We will not use or share your Personal Information with anyone except as described in this Privacy Policy.
We use your Personal Information for providing and improving the Service. By using the Service, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. If you do not consent to this Privacy Policy, then do not use the Service. Unless otherwise defined in this Privacy Policy, terms used in this Privacy Policy have the same meanings as in our Terms of Service. This Privacy Policy is incorporated by way of reference into the Terms of Service.
INFORMATION COLLECTION AND USE
While using our Service, we may ask you to provide us with certain personally identifiable information that can be used to contact or identify you. Personally identifiable information (“Personal Information”) may include, but is not limited to:
- Full name
- Username
- Email address
- Telephone number
- Address
- Company name
We collect and use this information in order to serve you and your needs and so that we can contact you when necessary. Collecting this information allows us to remember you and personalize the Service towards you. We will not sell any of your personal information.
When using our service, you must create an account first, and choose a username and password. We strongly recommend not using your real name or information in your username. Usernames are public and cannot be changed after you register. If you use personal information, such as your real name, keep in mind it will show on your profile and cannot be hidden. Please choose a username that is appropriate and professional. You may use capitals and numerical characters with no spaces. You may change your display name, as in the name that appears next to your picture throughout the website, in your profile settings. You may change your password at any time through your account settings. We recommend choosing a strong password that you do not use for any other website. Accounts have a numeric User ID assigned to them when they are created that cannot be changed. You may delete your account at any time through your account settings or by contacting us at info@diyassist.ca. Please note it may take up to two business days for a response.
You may optionally include other personal information on your profile at your own risk. You can manually set the privacy of information on your own profile through your profile settings to decide who can see that information, with an exception. Please note that all profile information, regardless of privacy settings, is viewable and editable by administrators of the Service. This allows us to moderate and monitor to ensure that all content on profiles follows the Terms of Service. In the profile privacy settings, “Everyone” means that the information is public. “All Members” means all Members of the Community can see the information. “All Friends” means only your friends can see the information. “Only Me” means only you can see the information, with the exception of administrators of the Service.
We may contact you through your given email address at any time, including to give Notices, as described further in the Terms of Service.

You may remove any and all information in the Community associated with your account at any time by deleting your account through the account settings page, or by contacting us at info@diyassist.ca.
