True North values the privacy and personal information of its patrons, customers, and vendors. As part of our commitment to protecting your privacy, this policy outlines how True North collects, uses, discloses and manages your personal information.

True North uses information in operating our business, our websites, our mobile and other software applications, and any other online service that displays or provides an authorized link to this Privacy Policy (collectively, our “Services”).

PERSONAL INFORMATION

For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, “Personal Information” means any information that allows us to identify an individual. Such information may include but is not limited to, your name, mailing address, e-mail address, phone number, date of birth, payment information, age and information relating to an account you created with True North. Personal information does not include the name, title or business address or telephone number of an employee of an organization. It also does not include information that is aggregated and cannot be associated with an identifiable individual.  By using any of True North’s Services and/or choosing to provide personal information to us, you signify your consent to the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information as outlined in this Privacy Policy and in accordance with applicable law.

COLLECTION OF INFORMATION

True North may collect your Personal Information in a number of different ways:

Information You Provide Directly: True North collects any Personal Information you submit in relation to using our Services. For example, information is collected when you sign up for newsletters, request customer service or information, post comments or otherwise interact with us in relation to the Services. By providing any Personal Information required by any online form and by agreeing to its terms, you consent to receive communications from us related to our Services. Typically, we will seek your consent at the time your Personal Information is collected.

Surveys, Events, Contests, Sweepstakes, and Offers: True North collects Personal Information when you choose to participate in any survey, event, contest, sweepstakes, or offer. Participation is voluntary. We use this information to contact you about the event, contest, sweepstake, or offer for which you sign up or as otherwise specifically indicated in the rules and regulation of the contest, sweepstake or offer. If you do not provide all of the requested Personal Information, you will not be able to participate in the event, contest, sweepstake, or offer. True North may offer the survey, event, contest, sweepstake, or offer in coordination with one of our partners. In these circumstances, the submission form used to participate or sign up for those activities shall indicate the relevant partner organizations. This Privacy Policy will apply to our use of this information and we are not responsible for how our partners use the information collected from your submissions. True North encourages you to review the relevant partner’s privacy policy that applies to their data collection and use. Your submissions may result in you being added to our marketing lists as well as those of third parties associated with the survey, event, contest, sweepstake, or offer.

Information Collected through Apps: If you download and use any of True North’s mobile apps, True North or any third party service providers may collect certain information through that mobile app. Please note some of our mobile apps are developed and operated by a third party and more information about how any third party processes your Personal Information can be obtained via their respective privacy policies. These mobile apps may frame portions of our Services and you may provide information directly to us through each mobile app in those circumstances. If you choose to use our mobile apps, we may collect geolocation information if you have activated this functionality. For instance, we can recognize that you have entered a venue and recognize you if you are a member of Jets 360.

Social Media: If you sign into one of our websites or apps using a social media account such as Facebook, Google, LinkedIn or Twitter (“Social Media Platforms”), we will collect information that you have added in your registration profile from those accounts and which is made available to us by default by Social Media Platforms. We may also collect Personal information about you from your use of Social Media Platforms, through which you allow us to collect (or the third party to share) Personal information about you, such as details of your friends/connections, “likes”, comments you have shared, groups and location. In addition, we may receive Personal information about you if other users of a third party website give us access to their profiles and you are one of their friends/connections or information about you is otherwise accessible through your friends’/connections’ web page, profile page, or similar page on a Social Media Platform or other third party website or interactive service. We may supplement the information we collect about you directly with the information we receive from third parties in order to enhance our ability to serve you, to tailor our content to you and send you details of promotions and/or offers which we believe may be of interest to you, although at all times, in compliance with applicable privacy laws.

Automatically Collected Information: Our Services automatically collect certain Personal Information from you when you visit them. For example, our servers or networks may collect your device’s IP address and other device or network information. This collected information may be combined with information that you provide us with directly in order to personalize content and advertising based on your interest. Such collected information may include log information, device information, or location information.

Payment Information: True North and our service providers may collect your payment or banking information when you make a purchase using our Services and may use such information to complete transactions.

Tickets: True North will collect Personal Information, including relevant financial information, from you when you perform transactions such as purchasing tickets or subscribing to be a season ticket member or suiteholder. Such information is necessary to process any such purchases or administer such accounts.

CCTV:  As a security measure and in order to ensure the safety of our guests, tenants and occupants of our venues, we may use Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) at various locations in order to maintain the security of our venues. This collection is subject to applicable privacy laws and may be shared only in limited circumstances.

True North limits the amount and type of Personal Information collected from you to the extent which is necessary for the purposes communicated to you.

True North may use the collected and received Personal Information for the following purposes:

  • To complete your requests.

These companies are contractually obligated to protect your information in a manner that is comparable to the way we protect your information and are only allowed to use it for the purpose it was collected.
  • Operational Partners. We partner with third parties to operate certain Services and may provide information about you to these operational partners.

With your consent, True North may share information about you with other select business partners, such as our sponsors, other retailers, and broadcast partners, so that they can provide you with special offers, promotional materials, and other materials that may be of interest to you.

However, True North is not responsible for the privacy practices of our business partners, which may use your information for their own purposes.
  • Leagues. True North may share information about you with the professional sports leagues to which our sports teams belong (“Leagues”). For example, the National Hockey League and the American Hockey League.

Where required by applicable law, True North will seek your consent before sharing your information with the Leagues for promotional purposes. Please note that League websites and services are not controlled by True North and are subject to their own individual privacy policies. True North is not responsible for the privacy practices of any such Leagues.
  • Legal Disclosures. True North or our service providers may disclose your information, including the contents of your communications, to other parties when required or permitted by applicable law, such as when we have reasonable grounds to believe that:
    • Doing so is necessary to respond to lawful governmental requests or legal process;
    • The information is relevant to a crime that has been or is being committed;
    • An emergency exists that poses a threat to your safety or the safety of another person or persons; or
    • Doing so is necessary to protect our rights or property.
  • Ownership Change. In the event that the ownership of True North, or any portion of our assets, changes as a result of a business transaction (i.e. a merger, acquisition, corporate reorganization or insolvency event), your information may be transferred to another entity. If such a transaction occurs, you will be notified that it has occurred in an update to this Privacy Policy or through other appropriate means.
  • Interactive Features. True North may share information with third parties when you post information to a public user profile or a public area of our Services. If you post information to these interactive features, it may be publicly available and you may receive unsolicited messages from other parties. True North cannot ensure that parties who have access to such information will respect your privacy. Please exercise caution when using these features and do not post sensitive personal information.
  • Games and Contests. True North may share information with third parties in connection with the administration or marketing of games or promotional contests which run on our Services. This may include, for example, names of the winners of a content or in connection with a game leaderboard.

Also, if you submit Personal Information to the website (such as your name, interest or preferences), we may use cookies to keep track of such information so that you will not need to re-enter this information during subsequent visits.

If a standard for responding is established, True North will update the Privacy Policy on responding to these signals.

At True North, we take our responsibilities to our younger visitors seriously.

We will not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 (such as full name, home address, e-mail address, phone number, etc.). We may use age screening mechanisms to help us determine if a user is under the age of 13. If the True North Services determine that the user is under the age of 13, he/she will be directed to content that does not involve the submission of personal information.

From time to time, we may post information on our site about other promotions, contests or games that are open to children but that require Personal Information to participate. For these contests, children will be required to provide proof of consent from their parent or legal guardian.

If at any time, a parent or legal guardian becomes aware that their child has provided us with information without their consent, or wishes to withdraw their consent to our use, disclosure or retention of Personal Information collected from his or her child, the parent or guardian should contact us at [email protected] and we will promptly remove such information from our database(s).
