1. Purposes of the Privacy Policy:
Privacy and the protection of personal information are important to us, which is why we intend to protect personal information in accordance with applicable laws.
To ensure this protection, Clinique MFML inc. undertakes to collect, process, and share personally identifiable information only when the individual has consented to it, unless permitted or required by law, in which case your consent will not be required.
The purpose of the Policy is to inform users of why and how Clinique MFML inc. or anyone acting on its behalf, will collect and use their personal information. It is intended to be in plain language to ensure informed consent from users.
For the purposes of this Policy, “personal information” means any information about an identifiable individual or from which an individual can be identified. To the extent possible, we will anonymize, pseudonymize and/or aggregate these so that they no longer identify an individual.
2. Coming into force
This Policy applies as of 1st May 2024.
This Policy replaces the Privacy Policy as of 1st May 2024
3. How consent is obtained
We are committed to obtaining consent before collecting an individual’s personal information. Consent may be express or implied and may be provided directly by the individual or by their authorized representative.
We prefer to obtain express consent, whether verbally, electronically or in writing. However, implied consent can be reasonably inferred from an individual’s action or inaction. For example, providing a name and address to receive a publication or a name and telephone number to obtain an answer to a question is considered implied consent to the collection of information containing personal information. In determining the appropriate type of consent, we consider the sensitivity of the personal information involved, the purposes for which it is collected, and the reasonable expectations of an individual in similar circumstances.
If we want to use the personal information for a new purpose, we will describe the intended use and ask for consent again.
It is not always possible, such as through a request by the Crown, to obtain the consent of the individual to collect, use or disclose his or her personal information. We will never disclose this type of information other than in accordance with this Policy, except as required or permitted by law.

7. The treatment processes used
Clinique MFML inc. attaches the utmost importance to the security of your personal information and undertakes to treat it in accordance with industry norms and standards, only for the purposes for which it is collected as described in this policy or in a specific notice to that effect. However, absolute backup of the latter is impossible due to the security limitations inherent in transmission via the Internet. The information transmitted to us is therefore ultimately at the user’s own risk.
8. How Personal Information Is Accessed and Controlled
Clinique MFML inc. ensures that all personal information in its possession is as accurate, current, and complete as necessary for the purposes for which it is to be used.
You have the right to request access to your personal information for audit purposes and to request correction if it is inaccurate. If you believe that your personal information is inaccurate or if you wish to have access to your personal information, you may make a request using the contact information provided at the end of this Policy.
To the best of our ability, we will provide you with timely access to your personal information. However, as a security measure, we may need to verify your identity.
In addition, there may be circumstances where we will not be able to provide you with access to your personal information. This includes where access may result in the disclosure of another individual’s personal information and that individual refuses to consent to the disclosure of that information, or where legal restrictions apply. If such a situation arises, we will advise you of the reason why we cannot provide you with access to your personal information.
If your request relates to data appearing on third-party web pages or platforms, please contact those third parties directly.
9. Sharing and Reason for Sharing Personal Information with Third Parties
We do not share your personal information with companies, organizations, or individuals outside of Clinique MFML inc. except with our authorized vendors and partners who need access to the information for the purposes listed in this policy and within the limits of this policy, as well as in the following cases:
- With your consent.
- For storage in cloud servers, in which case personal information may transit through third party jurisdictions. Please note that we only retain services from reputable companies with privacy policies.
- For external processing purposes: We transfer personal information to other companies or trusted individuals who process it on our behalf, according to our instructions, in accordance with this Privacy Policy, with a degree of data security at least equivalent to our own and in compliance with any other appropriate security and confidentiality measures.
We use the services of third-party providers to share, cleanse and analyze data in the culture sector so that they can enhance this data and develop tools for the benefit of the public or actors in the sector. To do this, these providers process the information provided in the following ways:
The data is first prepared and then classified for use.
From the prepared data, the provider creates aggregate statistics that contain general, non-personal information, sometimes combined with data from similar sources. This pooled data is then used to establish global statistics such as provenance analyses (mainly via postal codes) but also seasonality analyses or price analyses (such as shopping carts).
This data is then enriched using two different processes. The first is an enrichment by open-access third-party data, such as socio-demographic data issued by the Census via postal code. The second process is called inference enrichment. Enrichment by inference consists, for example, in the context of a purchase of a ticket at the “under 25” fare, in inferring that the individual concerned is under 25 years of age.
- For legal reasons: We transfer personal information outside of our company if access to it is necessary to comply with applicable laws and regulations.
Clinique MFML inc. will not sell or rent your personal information to any third party.

You can set your browser settings to notify you of the presence of cookies, giving you the option to accept them or not.
Please note that our website may contain links or references to third party sites. This policy ceases to apply when you leave our website and Clinique MFML inc. is not responsible for the collection or processing of personal information by these third parties or through these external sources.
11. Retention of Personal Information
Clinique MFML inc. keeps the data collected for different periods of time, depending on its nature and usefulness in offering our products and services. During the retention period, Clinique MFML inc. takes physical and technical measures to ensure the security of data containing personal information.
The primary locations where personal information is stored are cities in which Clinique MFML inc. has offices or facilities and in cities in which WHC has servers containing the data collected by Clinique MFML inc.
Personal information may be stored outside of the country in which you live, if a third-party provider or other entity to whom we disclose personal information pursuant to this Policy is located outside the country. In such cases, the personal information may be subject to the local laws of the countries or territories in which the information is collected, used, disclosed, or stored, and may be accessed by government and law enforcement authorities in those jurisdictions.
Once the retention period has expired, the personal information is destroyed. Only statistics or reports containing de-identified and anonymized data may be retained for extended periods of time.
