• Consent: Where you have given us clear consent to process your personal data for a specific purpose, such as marketing communications.
• Contract: Where processing is necessary for the performance of a contract with you or to take steps at your request before entering into a contract.

Your Rights Under GDPR

If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

Right to Access

You have the right to request copies of your personal data. We may charge a small fee for this service in certain circumstances.

Right to Rectification

You have the right to request that we correct any information you believe is inaccurate or complete information you believe is incomplete.

Right to Erasure

You have the right to request that we erase your personal data under certain conditions, such as when the data is no longer necessary for the purpose it was collected.

Right to Restrict Processing

You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data under certain conditions, such as when you contest the accuracy of the data.

Right to Object

You have the right to object to our processing of your personal data under certain conditions, particularly where we are processing data for direct marketing purposes.

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to request that we transfer the data we have collected to another organization, or directly to you, under certain conditions.

How to Exercise Your Rights

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at [email protected]. We will respond to your request within one month. If your request is complex or you have made multiple requests, we may extend this period by a further two months, but we will inform you of any extension within one month of receiving your request.

We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data or exercise any of your other rights.

International Data Transfers

As a Canadian business, your data may be stored and processed in Canada. Canada has been recognized by the European Commission as providing adequate protection for personal data. Where we transfer data to third parties outside of Canada or the EEA, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place.

Data Retention

We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.

To determine the appropriate retention period, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure, the purposes for which we process the data, and applicable legal requirements.

Data Security

We have implemented appropriate technical and organizational security measures designed to protect your personal data against accidental loss, unauthorized access, use, alteration, or disclosure. Access to your personal data is limited to those employees, agents, contractors, and other third parties who have a business need to know.

Complaints

If you are not satisfied with how we handle your personal data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. If you are in the EEA, you can contact your local data protection authority. In Canada, you can contact the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada.
