If you are located in Canada, this section applies to you.
We may process your information if you have given us specific permission (i.e., express consent) to use your personal information for a specific purpose, or in situations where your permission can be inferred (i.e., implied consent).

Verification process
Upon receiving your request, we will need to verify your identity to determine you are the same person about whom
we have the information in our system. These verification efforts require us to ask you to provide information so that
we can match it with information you have previously provided us. For instance, depending on the type of request
you submit, we may ask you to provide certain information so that we can match the information you provide with
the information we already have on file, or we may contact you through a communication method (e.g., phone or
email) that you have previously provided to us. We may also use other verification methods as the circumstances
dictate.
We will only use personal information provided in your request to verify your identity or authority to make the
request. To the extent possible, we will avoid requesting additional information from you for the purposes of
verification. However, if we cannot verify your identity from the information already maintained by us, we may
request that you provide additional information for the purposes of verifying your identity and for security or fraudprevention purposes. We will delete such additionally provided information as soon as we finish verifying you.
