By submitting your personal information or engaging with our website, you consent to the collection, use, and disclosure described in this Privacy Policy.

3. How We Disclose and Share Your Personal Information
ÚÚJǪ does not sell personal information. We may disclose information:

As an entity owned by the Doig River First Nation, ÚÚJǪ recognizes the importance of Indigenous data sovereignty and stewardship. Personal information is treated with respect for Indigenous governance principles, privacy expectations, and community values.
Where applicable, we may apply Indigenous data governance principles to how information is accessed, stored, and used.
5. Where We Store and How We Transfer Your Personal Information
We use secure, industry-standard systems to store your personal information in secured locations and on servers controlled by us located either at our offices or at the offices of our service providers. We require that our service providers privacy and security standards be consistent with or no less protective than this Privacy Policy and in compliance with all applicable Canadian legislation. When we transfer your personal information to a third party to provide administrative and other services, we use appropriate measures to ensure that the third party will only use your personal information to perform the services we have specified. We may process, store, and transfer your personal information in and to a foreign country, with different privacy laws that may or may not be as comprehensive as Canadian law. In these circumstances, the governments, courts, law enforcement, or regulatory agencies of that country may be able to obtain access to your personal information through the laws of the foreign country. Whenever we engage a service provider, we require that its privacy and security standards adhere to this Privacy Policy and applicable Canadian privacy legislation.
6. How We Secure Your Personal Information
We use physical, electronic, and administrative measures to protect your personal information from accidental loss, unauthorized access, use, alteration, and disclosure, including anti-malware solutions, firewall applications, and data encryption. No method of transmitting information is completely secure. Although we do our best to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information transmitted to our website. Any transmission of personal information is at your own risk. We are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on the website.
