Overview

ENABC (“ENABC”, “we”, or “us”) are committed to ensuring your personal data remains private. For that purpose, if we are to ask you for any personal information, it is only the minimum amount of information that allows us to perform our work.

ENABC is governed by the laws of Canada and the laws of British Columbia. We are committed to protecting personal information in alignment with British Columbia’s Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA). Although our intended viewers are citizens of Canada, we extend our privacy policy to comply with the European Union’s Global Data Protection Regulation (REG (EU) 2016/679), or the “GDPR”. 

Further information about our privacy policy can be directed towards ENABC by emailing secretary@enabc.ca.
