Our Commitment to Member & Customer Privacy
BOMA Ottawa is committed to providing every member and customer with quality service. We consider the protection of personal identifiable information concerning each of our current or potential members and customers to be a key part of our commitment.
Why we collect personal identifiable information
We collect and use personal information about our members and customers in order to identify them, to communicate with them, to protect the Association and our members and customers against error and fraud as well as to better understand what products or services our members and customers want. We do not disclose the personal information of our customers to anyone else and we will not permit anyone else to use the personal information of our members or customers for any purpose without the customer’s consent. BOMA Ottawa does, from time to time, use external suppliers to deploy messaging on our behalf, but do so under the strictest of guidelines, and only for the purposes outlined by BOMA Ottawa, and no information is retained by the external supplier.

We may use “cookies” that identify you as a return visitor. A cookie is a piece of data that a website can send to your browser, which may then store the cookie on your hard drive, for the purposes of expediting future visits and to tailor information to individual preferences.
