Electronic Distributors International Inc. also known as EDI is committed to excellent customer service combined with respecting your right to privacy. The appropriate management and protection of any personal or business information that you provide us with is of utmost importance.

Collection & Identify Purpose

EDI collects personal information about individuals for a number of reasons including credit applications, employment applications and to comply with legislation.

We will identify this reason at or before the information is collected.

Credit information is collected from potential customers to verify your identity and validate your credit history.
Personal information required from employees includes, but is not limited to address, SIN# and Date of Birth.
A Driver’s license or Photo ID is used to confirm your identity when you are selling precious metals.

Consent

EDI is required to obtain an individuals knowledge and consent before collecting, using or disclosing personal information in accordance with this privacy policy and as permitted or required by law.

Accuracy

EDI will make every effort to ensure that the information it collects and uses is accurate and complete. EDI will from time to time review and update information that it has on file and on written request by an individual, to whom the information relates, will modify the information as required.

Storage

EDI protects the confidentiality of your Personal Information by maintaining the appropriate physical, administrative, procedural and technological safeguards over our offices and information storage facilities so as to prevent unauthorized collection, access, use, modification, disclosure or disposal of the information.

The measures of protection include:
Physical – locked filing cabinets and restricted access to offices
Procedural – shredding sensitive information when no longer required
Administrative – security passes and limiting access to the personal information
Technological – the use of passwords and encryption

Disclosure

EDI will not use or disclose personal information unnecessarily to anyone other than to whom it was intended unless by consent of the individual it effects.

There are circumstances where collection, use or disclosure may be justified or permitted without your consent as required for purposes of debt collection, breaches of agreements or as required by applicable legislation or law.

Website analytics and session recording

When you visit edirefining.com, we use two services to understand how people use the site, so we can fix anything confusing and make it easier to reach us.

Google Analytics, provided by Google LLC, counts visits and records actions such as which pages are viewed, whether the price panel, booking window or contact form is used, and whether a phone number is tapped.

Microsoft Clarity, provided by Microsoft Corporation, records how visitors move through a page, including scrolling, clicks, taps and mouse movement, and turns this into heatmaps and replays of visits.

What these services do not see: anything you type into our contact form, booking window or chat assistant is hidden before it leaves your device, so it is never recorded. We do not use these services to identify you, and we do not sell this information.

Cookies: both services store cookies or similar identifiers in your browser. You can block or delete them in your browser settings, and the site works normally without them. Google offers an opt-out add-on for browsers at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

Where the information goes: Google and Microsoft process this information on servers in the United States and other countries. While it is there, it is subject to the laws of those countries and may be accessed by their courts, law enforcement and national security authorities.

For more on how each company handles this information, see Google’s privacy policy at policies.google.com/privacy and Microsoft’s privacy statement at privacy.microsoft.com.
