Lawful Basis for Processing

We process personal data on the following legal bases:

  • Consent: When you voluntarily submit information through our forms or agree to receive communications
  • Legitimate Interests: For analyzing website usage and improving our services, where such interests are not overridden by your rights
  • Contractual Necessity: When processing is required to fulfill service agreements
  • Legal Obligation: When we are required to process data to comply with applicable laws

Your Rights Under GDPR

As an EEA resident, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

Right of Access

You have the right to obtain confirmation of whether we process your personal data and to access that data along with information about how it is processed.

Right to Rectification

You have the right to request correction of inaccurate personal data and completion of incomplete data.

Right to Erasure

You have the right to request deletion of your personal data under certain circumstances, such as when the data is no longer necessary for its original purpose.

Right to Restrict Processing

You have the right to request limitation of processing in certain situations, such as when you contest data accuracy or object to processing.

Right to Data Portability

You have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format and to transmit it to another controller.

Right to Object

You have the right to object to processing based on legitimate interests, including profiling. We will cease processing unless we demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds.

Right to Withdraw Consent

Where processing is based on consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.

International Data Transfers

As we are based in Canada, personal data collected from EEA residents may be transferred to and processed in Canada. Canada has been recognized by the European Commission as providing an adequate level of data protection. For any transfers to other jurisdictions, we implement appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses.

Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in our Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required by law. When determining retention periods, we consider the amount and sensitivity of data, potential risks, processing purposes, and legal requirements.

Automated Decision-Making

We do not engage in automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal effects or similarly significantly affects individuals.

Data Protection Officer

For organizations required to appoint a Data Protection Officer, or for any GDPR-related inquiries, please contact us at the address provided above.

Supervisory Authority

EEA residents have the right to lodge a complaint with their local supervisory authority if they believe their data protection rights have been violated. A list of supervisory authorities is available on the European Data Protection Board website.

Exercising Your Rights

To exercise any of the rights described above, please contact us using the information provided. We will respond to requests within one month, though this period may be extended for complex requests. We may request verification of identity before processing certain requests.

Changes to This Information

We may update this GDPR information periodically. Material changes will be communicated through our website with an updated effective date.
