Consent.
Consent is defined as voluntary agreement with the collection, use and
disclosure of personal information for defined purposes. Consent can
either be express, implied or deemed and can be provided directly by
the individual or by an authorized representative. Express consent can
be given orally, electronically or in writing. Implied consent is
consent that can reasonably be inferred from an individual's action or
inaction. Deemed consent is consent that is deemed to be given
pursuant to applicable regulations.
In obtaining consent,
Mountain Creek shall use reasonable efforts to ensure that an
individual is advised of the purposes for which personal information
will be used or disclosed. Purposes shall be stated in a manner that
can be reasonably understood by the individual. Generally, Mountain
Creek shall seek consent to use and disclose personal information at
the same time it collects the information. However, Mountain Creek may
seek consent to use and disclose personal information
after it has
been collected, but before it is used or disclosed for a new purpose.
Mountain Creek will require individuals to consent to the collection,
use or disclosure of personal information as a condition of the supply
of a product or service only if such collection, use or disclosure is
reasonably required to fulfill the identified purposes. In determining
the appropriate form of consent, Mountain Creek shall take into account
the sensitivity of the personal information and the reasonable
expectations of an individual.
Disclosure of Personal Information.
Only Mountain Creek employees with a business need to know, or whose
duties reasonably so require, are granted access to personal
information about individuals. Mountain Creek may disclose an
individual's personal information to a person who in the reasonable
judgment of Mountain Creek is seeking the information as an agent of
the individual; a company or individual employed by Mountain Creek to
perform functions on its behalf, such as but not limited to research or
data processing; another company or individual for the development,
enhancement, marketing or provision of any of Mountain Creek's products
and services; an agent used by Mountain Creek to collect the
individual's account; a public authority or agent of a public
authority, if in the reasonable judgment of Mountain Creek it appears
that there is imminent danger to life or property which could be
avoided or minimized by disclosure of the information; another entity
as part of a merger, a sale of assets or all or part of a business, or
any
other corporate change or re-organization; a third party or parties,
where the individual consents to such disclosure or disclosure is
required or permitted by law.
In certain circumstances
personal information can be collected, used or disclosed without the
knowledge and consent of the individual such as in the case of an
emergency where the life, health or security of an individual is
threatened. Mountain Creek may disclose personal information without
knowledge or consent to a lawyer or other advisor representing Mountain
Creek, to collect a debt, to comply with a subpoena, warrant or other
court order, or as may otherwise be required or authorized by law.

as loss or theft, unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use,
modification or destruction. Any and all personal information
collected will be used only by Mountain Creek and its affiliated
entities. Except as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy
statement, personal information collected by any means will not be
shared outside of Mountain Creek and its affiliated entities without
your consent. Mountain Creek shall use appropriate means to protect
personal information while information is being processed by a third
party on behalf of Mountain Creek.
