Security
The personal information that Défis RH collects is kept in a secure environment. Défis RH has adopted appropriate measures to preserve the confidentiality of personal information and to protect it against loss or theft, as well as unauthorized access, communication, reproduction, use or modification, taking into account, in particular, its sensitivity and the purposes for which it is used. In addition, Défis RH requires that each employee, agent or representative of Défis RH comply with this Policy.
To ensure the security of the User’s personal information, Défis RH uses the following measures, among others:
Défis RH is committed to maintaining a high level of security by integrating the latest technological innovations to ensure the confidentiality of the User’s transactions in order to protect his or her personal information from unauthorized access, use or disclosure.
However, since no mechanism offers maximum security, there is always a degree of risk involved when using the Internet to transmit personal information. If a password is used to protect the User’s account and personal information, it is the User’s responsibility to ensure that it remains confidential.
Défis RH keeps an up-to-date register of privacy incidents and will contact any User whose personal information is the subject of such an incident and presents a risk of serious harm.

The User’s personal information will not be retained beyond the purposes for which it was collected. Défis RH respects the retention period established by this Policy, which complies with the Privacy Act. The deletion of personal information occurs when the User deletes his/her account. The User will then have thirty (30) days to retrieve his or her personal information, failing which Défis RH will permanently delete it.
