First Track pioneers Operation Welcome Home to support Ukrainian refugee families in Vancouver

“We, at First Track are proud to aid the pilot project, Operation Welcome Home, in support of Ukrainian refugee families. We’ve transformed two single-family dwellings on our future development site into fully-furnished homes for displaced families in need. Through a combined effort with municipal staff, a settlement services operator, and advisors, we were able to provide living amenities, job opportunities, English language learning, and other support that’s needed to live here in Metro Vancouver.”

SASHA FARIS, FIRST TRACK DEVELOPMENT

Giving Back
Home

This is all made possible through our partnership with CUAET, S.U.C.C.E.S.S., Maple Hope and the Rennie Foundation.

Homes pending demolition haven’t historically been represented within our supply of available housing. While these properties come with their own challenges, they also pose an opportunity for us to inspect, repair, and outfit for those in need. Due to the urgency and volume of Ukrainian refugees arriving in BC, we’re encouraging other developers with properties awaiting demolition to take part.

We believe we all have a responsibility to our communities and to help those in need. At First Track, we are committed to engaging more parties to lend a hand. For questions or additional information, please contact Sasha Faris at sasha@firsttrackinvestment.com.

Privacy Policy

This is the privacy policy (the “Policy”) of Nanaimo and 10th Limited Partnership. We are committed to protecting your right to privacy when you provide us with personal information. This Policy sets out how we collect and manage personal information, whether that information is collected via our site woodlandblock.com (the “Site”) or otherwise. In this Policy, the terms “you”, “user” and “your” refer to a visitor of our Site or a user of our services provided on the Site or otherwise, including when you register your interest in purchasing one of our properties and use our online portals (collectively, the “Services”) and the terms “we”, “us” and “our” refer to the Nanaimo and 10th Limited Partnership.

Please read this Policy carefully before using our Site or receiving our Services. We may update or modify this Policy at any time by posting our revised policy to our Site. We include a “Last Revised” date in the Policy displayed on our Site. We strongly encourage you to refer back to the Policy periodically to ensure that you stay up to date with our practices and procedures.

By using our Site or requesting or receiving any of our Services, you agree that you have read, understood and agree to be bound by this Policy, including any updates to the Policy.

By submitting personal information to us, including by using our Site or any of our Services, you hereby consent to the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information in accordance with this Policy.

If you do not agree with some or all of this Policy, you must not use the Site, our Services or submit personal information to us.

1. Privacy Officer

Our Privacy Officer is generally responsible for ensuring compliance with applicable privacy legislation. The Privacy Officer must approve the policies and practices regulating the governance of personal information. More specifically, this person is responsible for implementing this Policy and ensuring that it is known, understood and applied.

Our employees who have access to personal information or are otherwise involved in the management of such information must ensure its protection and comply with this Policy. The roles and responsibilities of our employees throughout the life cycle of personal information may be specified by other policies as well.

2. Consent

In this Policy, “personal information” means information that can identify an individual, and includes, for example, a person’s name, home address, home phone number, gender, date of birth, language preference, email address, credit card information, or account information. Personal information in Canada does not include information to enable an individual at a place of business to be contacted, such as their name, position name or title, business telephone number, business address, or business email address.

It is important to us that we collect, use or disclose your personal information only where we have your consent to do so or as provided in this Policy. Depending on the sensitivity of the personal information, your consent may be express, implied or deemed. Express consent can be given orally, electronically or in writing. Implied consent is consent that can reasonably be inferred from your action or inaction. For example, when you use our Services, we will assume your consent to the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information for purposes related to the Services or for other purposes identified to you at the relevant time. Deemed consent is consent we assume in the event that you do not exercise an opt-out mechanism offered to you, provided that deemed consent is permitted under applicable laws.

By submitting your personal information to us or obtaining our Services, you consent to the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information in the manner described in this Policy. To the extent that we are required by applicable laws to obtain your explicit consent for the collection, use or disclosure of your personal information in accordance with this Policy, such consent will be requested at the appropriate time. Further, if we plan to use or disclose your personal information for a purpose not previously identified (either in this Policy or separately), we will advise you of that purpose before such use or disclosure. However, we may collect, use or disclose your personal information without your knowledge or consent where we are permitted or required to do so by applicable law or regulatory requirements.

You may change or withdraw your consent at any time, subject to legal or contractual restrictions and reasonable notice, by contacting our Privacy Officer using the contact information set out below. In some circumstances, a change or withdrawal of consent may limit our ability to provide Services to you or your ability to access certain areas of our Site.

We assume, unless you advise us otherwise, that by receiving or having access to a copy of this Policy or by continuing to deal with us, you have consented to the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information as explained in this Policy.
