Privacy
PEI Liquor takes the privacy of its Internet users seriously.

Any personal information provided to PEI Liquor is collected, used and disclosed in accordance with the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act or other applicable legislation.
This website privacy statement explains the website data practices of PEI Liquor.
What is personal information?
Personal Information is recorded information about an identifiable individual. Personal information includes such things as an individual’s name, address, date of birth, email address and phone number. When the PEI Liquor collects personal information it must identify:
- the purpose for collecting the personal information;
- the legal authority for collecting it; and
- the title, business address and business telephone number of an officer or employee of Liquor PEI who can answer questions about the collection of that information.
PEI Liquor does not collect personal information unless you voluntarily provide it for the purpose of using specific online services. However, if you choose not to provide the information required for online services, you can still access PEI Liquor services in person, by phone, fax or mail. Your decision not to participate in online services will not impair your ability to browse the website, read or download any information provided on the site.
Personal information will only be used by authorized staff to fulfill the purpose for which it was originally collected or for a use consistent with that purpose, unless you expressly consent otherwise. We do not disclose your information to other public bodies or individuals, except as authorized by the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act.
What kind of information is being automatically collected?

This address can be translated to determine the domain name of your service provider as well as the type of browser and operating system being used;
- the date, time and duration of your visit;
- web pages visited and online applications or services used.
This information is used in aggregate form for statistical and systems performance management purposes only. PEI Liquor does not use this data to determine your identity unless required to do so as part of an internal investigation or other law enforcement purpose.
What safeguards are in place?
PEI Liquor is obligated to protect your personal information by making reasonable security arrangements against risks such as unauthorized access, collection, use, disclosure, disposal or destruction. Security measures have been integrated into the design, implementation and day-to-day operating practices as part of PEI Liquor’s continuing commitment to the protection of personal information.
