With the new Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA), in effect as of January 1, 2004, we would like to make sure that all Opus customers are aware of Opus' ongoing practices to protect your privacy.

Opus has always taken the issue of our customers' privacy very seriously, and in future, we will continue to do so. We have been collecting our customers' contact information for almost 30 years now, for the purpose of our monthly newsletter mailings, occasional customer surveys, free monthly draws, special promotions, and notices of art-related events. In that time, we have always used this information as intended and as presented to you, our customer, because we recognize it is good business and good faith to do so.

We have also ensured that we only mail to those customers who have voluntarily given their names and we have never sold or lent our lists to any third party. In addition, we respect all requests received by customers wishing to be removed from our mailing list, ensuring that those individuals do not receive future mailings from us. We also endeavour to keep this information up-to-date but rely on you to keep us informed of any changes to your information.

With this in mind, you will not see any major changes to our systems as a result of this legislation, because Opus already complies with this method of doing business. If you have any questions, or if you wish to be removed from our mailing list so that you do not receive the type of mailings outlined above, we ask that you contact us immediately.
