Why We Use Your Personal Information

We use your personal information for the following primary purposes across our businesses:

Service Delivery and Account Management: We use your personal information to evaluate and process applications for accounts, loans, and other financial products and services. This includes opening and maintaining your records, processing payments, investments, transfers and withdrawals, and communicating with you regarding your accounts or inquiries. For real estate and mortgage services, this involves processing property offers, deal submissions, and funding arrangements.

Credit Assessment: We use your personal information to assess your creditworthiness when you apply for a credit product in order to establish credit limits and manage financial risks, and may continue to do so on an ongoing basis throughout our relationship. See the Credit Checks and Credit Reporting Notice for more information.
Security and Fraud Management: We monitor activity across platforms and accounts to prevent and detect financial abuse, fraud, and other suspicious activities. This may include the use of third party risk assessment, geolocation, and digital behavioral data, such as mouse patterns or keyboard rhythms, to ensure that only authorized users are accessing your account.
Legal and Regulatory Compliance: We use your personal information to satisfy various legal and regulatory requirements.

Automated Decision-Making (ADM)

We may use automated decision-making tools to assess credit risk, assess eligibility for products, and prevent and detect fraud. For example, we may process your personal information using certain tools to make decisions on credit applications, or preventing fraud and other financial crimes. When we rely on an automated decision, we may notify you of the automated nature of the decision and tell you how to contact us to learn more, in accordance with applicable laws.

How We Protect Your Personal Information

We take the protection of your personal information seriously. We maintain a comprehensive privacy program with physical, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect your personal information against loss, theft, and/or unauthorized access, use or disclosure. Our privacy controls include:

Access Controls: Limiting access to your personal information to authorized personnel on a ‘need-to-know’ basis.
Transparency: Ensuring you are informed of how your personal information is used before or at the time of collection.
Governance: Clear assignment of roles and responsibilities for managing data throughout its entire lifecycle, including the appointment of a Chief Privacy Officer.
Data Lifecycle Management: Standards for the secure retention, destruction, and anonymization of personal information.
Incident Response: Dedicated procedures for investigating suspected privacy incidents and responding to inquiries or complaints.
Individual Rights: Processes to help you easily exercise your rights and choices regarding your personal information.

We reinforce these protections through regular employee training and appropriate contracts that require our service providers to meet our confidentiality and security standards.

Where We Store and Process Your Personal Information

To provide our services, we and our service providers may store or process your personal information in jurisdictions outside of your province or territory of residence, or outside of Canada. While your personal information is in a foreign jurisdiction, it is subject to the local laws of that country. These laws may allow foreign courts, law enforcement, or national security authorities to access your personal information through valid legal requests. We ensure that any transfers of personal information are protected by contractual safeguards designed to maintain a level of protection comparable to our own standards in Canada.

How Long We Retain Your Personal Information

We only keep your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, or to meet our legal, tax, and reporting obligations. Our retention periods vary based on the type of data and the nature of our relationship with you. Once your personal information is no longer required, we securely destroy it or anonymize it so that it can no longer directly or indirectly identify you.
