we have reasonable grounds to believe an individual has been, is, or may
be victim of financial abuse

an agreement or a contravention of the laws of Canada or a province
- If
disclosure is required to comply with a subpoena, warrant, court order, or
rules of the court relating to the production of records

8. CONTROLS FOR
DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES

and implementing DNT signals has been finalized.
As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other
mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online.
If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future,
we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this privacy
notice.

phone or email) that you have previously provided to us. We may also use other
verification methods as the circumstances dictate.
We will only use
personal information provided in your request to verify your identity or
authority to make the request. To the extent possible, we will avoid requesting
additional information from you for the purposes of verification. However, if
we cannot verify your identity from the information already maintained by us,
