Where permissible with applicable law, we may use certain information about you, such as your email address, de-identify it, and share it with social media platforms, to generate leads, drive traffic to Sunrise Apothecary or otherwise promote our products and services.

4.2 Complying with Law.

We may disclose your information to courts, law enforcement, governmental or public authorities, tax authorities, or authorized third parties, if and to the extent we are required or permitted to do so by law or where disclosure is reasonably necessary: (i) to comply with our legal obligations, (ii) to comply with a valid legal request or to respond to claims asserted against Sunrise Apothecary, (iii) to respond to a valid legal request relating to a criminal investigation to address alleged or suspected illegal activity, or to respond to or address any other activity that may expose us, you, or any other of our users to legal or regulatory liability, (iv) to enforce and administer our agreements with Customers, or (v) to protect the rights, property or personal safety of Sunrise Apothecary, its employees, its Customers, or Customers of the public.

Where appropriate, we may notify Customers about legal requests unless: (i) providing notice is prohibited by the legal process itself, by court order we receive, or by applicable law, or (ii) we believe that providing notice would be futile, ineffective, create a risk of injury or bodily harm to an individual or group, or create or increase a risk of fraud upon or harm to Sunrise Apothecary, our Customers, or expose Sunrise Apothecary to a claim of obstruction of justice.

Some or all of the personal information we collect may be stored or processed in jurisdictions outside of Canada.

These providers have access to your personal information to perform these tasks.
