What is "Personal Information?"
Personal Information" is information about an identifiable individual. It may include information such name, address, telephone number and other contact information.
How Your Personal Information may Reach Us

Personal information is also collected as part of the registration process for Conservative Party conventions and other events. Our collection of personal information is limited to what is necessary and reasonable.
How we use your Personal Information
Your information is used to communicate with you, or to facilitate your participation as a volunteer if you wish to assist. We take great care in the way we store and use your personal information.

For example, if you have made a financial contribution, the local riding may contact you for continued support.
As a federal political party registered under the Canada Elections Act, the Conservative Party including its “electoral district associations" (riding associations) are subject to extensive regulation under that Act, including in particular public disclosure requirements for contributions over $200.
We will not sell your personal information that you have chosen to provide us, nor will we disclose it to third parties except as required by the Elections Act.
