Your Right to Privacy:

Milton Hydro Distribution Inc.(“Milton Hydro”) is pleased to be your provider of electricity distribution services and where connected to Town water, a billing agent for your water and wastewater services. Providing you with a reliable supply of electricity and/or billing for your water and wastewater services requires that Milton Hydro collect and keep certain personal information about you. We are committed to protecting the privacy of your personal information and we have developed policies and procedures in compliance with the Personal Information Protection and Electronics Document Act (“PIPEDA”).

 

We would like to take this opportunity to inform you about the personal information that we collect, how it is used, how we protect its confidentiality and your rights in respect to this information.

 

The nature of personal information we collect may include:

•  Information we receive from you such as your name, address, contact information and general financial, credit and

   reference information;

•  Facts about your historical and current consumption of electricity and water;

•  Information about your transactions with us, such as meter number, account number, account balances, payment

   history and account activity;

•  Identifying information such as driver's license.

 

 

Milton Hydro uses the information we collect for the following purposes:

•  To provide you with continuous electricity service and to bill you for electric and/or water and wastewater services;

•  To assist us in the collection of accounts;

•  To respond to your inquiries about electricity and/or water use and billing;

•  To prevent fraud with respect to both you and our company;

Because of the structure of the electricity sector in Ontario, it may be necessary to share your billing and consumption information with third party billing and settlement agencies. For example, if you have signed a separate contract with a retailer, we may provide your billing and consumption information to them. Our billing, settlement and regulatory relationships with third parties are governed by licenses and codes which are established by the Ontario Energy Board. As required by law or regulation, your information may also be shared or disclosed to other agencies or organizations.
