Collecting and Using Your Personal Data
Types of Data Collected
Information you provide. Our Website’s contact form requests your first name, last name, email address and the capacity in which you are contacting us. You may also provide a message. If you subsequently communicate with us, we may retain your correspondence and information relevant to your enquiry or business relationship.
We may keep professional contact details and records of business communications in a customer relationship management system (“CRM”). Where we send a newsletter or other business updates, we may also keep your email address, communication preferences and a record of your subscription or objection.
Please do not send sensitive Personal Data through the contact form unless it is necessary for your enquiry.
Usage Data. When you access the Website, technical information may be processed automatically by the Website and its Service Providers. This may include your IP address, browser and device information, pages requested, referring page, and the date and time of your visit. Technical information associated with a contact form submission may also be processed to deliver the submission and detect spam or misuse.
Analytics Data. If you accept analytics, Google Analytics may process information about how you use the Website, such as pages viewed, interactions, approximate location, device and browser information, and identifiers associated with analytics cookies.
Tracking Technologies and Cookies
We use technologies needed to operate the Website and remember your cookie choice. We also use Google Analytics to understand Website traffic if you choose to accept analytics.
You can accept or reject analytics through the cookie notice. You can change your choice later through “Cookie settings” in the Website footer. Rejecting analytics does not prevent you from using the Website or its contact form. You can also manage cookies through your browser settings.
The cookies and other storage technologies actually used by the Website, their purposes and their retention periods should be described in the Website’s cookie settings or accompanying cookie notice.
How We Use Personal Data
We may use Personal Data:
- to operate, maintain and secure the Website;
- to receive, assess and respond to your enquiries;
- to communicate with you about a potential or existing business relationship;
- to maintain business contact records in our CRM;
- to send newsletters, company updates or other commercial communications where we have your consent or are otherwise permitted to do so by applicable law;
- to analyse Website use and improve its content, where you have accepted analytics;
- to prevent spam, investigate misuse and address technical or security incidents;
- to respond to requests concerning Personal Data; and
- to comply with applicable law and establish, exercise or defend legal rights.
Submitting the contact form is voluntary. The fields marked as required are necessary to process a submission through the form. Submission of an enquiry does not, by itself, constitute consent to receive marketing emails.
Where we send commercial emails, we will identify the Company and provide a way to unsubscribe in accordance with applicable law. You may also ask us to stop sending marketing communications by contacting us using the details below. We may retain a limited record of your objection so that we can honour it.
Sharing Personal Data
We may disclose Personal Data to:
- Service Providers that support Website hosting, contact form delivery, email, CRM, email marketing, security and analytics, to the extent needed for their services;
- our personnel and professional advisers where access is reasonably needed for the purposes described in this Policy;
- parties to a corporate transaction, such as a proposed financing, reorganisation, merger or sale of assets, subject to applicable law and appropriate protections; and
- courts, regulators or other authorities where disclosure is required or permitted by law.
We may also disclose information at your direction or with any consent required for a particular disclosure. We do not publish contact form submissions for other visitors to the Website.
Retention of Personal Data
We retain Personal Data only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Policy. In determining the appropriate period, we consider the nature of the information, the status of an enquiry or business relationship, the need to maintain business records, and applicable legal or dispute resolution requirements.
We retain marketing preferences and a limited suppression record as needed to honour unsubscribe requests. Usage and analytics data are retained according to the purposes for which they are collected and the applicable service settings. When Personal Data is no longer required, we delete it or remove information that identifies the individual, subject to any legal requirement to retain it.
Processing and Transfers Outside Your Country
The Company is based in Canada. Our Service Providers may process or store Personal Data in other countries. Privacy laws and lawful access rules in those countries may differ from those in your place of residence.
Where EU or UK data protection law applies to a restricted international transfer, we will use a transfer mechanism permitted by that law. Information about the mechanism applicable to a particular transfer may be requested using the contact details below.
Access, Correction and Deletion
Subject to applicable law, you may request access to Personal Data under our control, ask us to correct inaccurate information, or request deletion. We may need to retain certain information where a legal obligation or another lawful reason applies.
We may ask for information reasonably necessary to verify your identity before responding to a request. We will respond within the time required by applicable law.
Disclosure for Legal and Safety Purposes
We may use or disclose Personal Data where reasonably necessary to comply with a legal obligation or valid request from a public authority; protect the rights or property of the Company; investigate possible misuse of the Website; address a security incident; or protect the safety of individuals.
Security of Personal Data
We use reasonable administrative, technical and organisational measures designed to protect Personal Data against unauthorised access, use, disclosure, alteration and loss. Access is limited to people who need the information for the purposes described in this Policy. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure.
Information About Service Providers
Contact form. The Website uses Web3Forms to receive and forward contact form submissions. Information about that provider’s practices is available in the Web3Forms Privacy Policy.
Analytics. If you accept analytics, the Website uses Google Analytics to measure Website use. Information about Google’s practices is available in the Google Privacy Policy.
CRM and email communications. We use Service Providers to maintain business contact records and may use Service Providers to manage and send newsletters or other permitted communications. Those providers receive information needed to perform their services for us.
GDPR Privacy
Legal Bases for Processing
Where the GDPR or UK GDPR applies, we rely on the following legal bases, as appropriate to the particular activity:
- Consent: for optional analytics and for marketing communications where consent is required. You may withdraw consent at any time.
- Performance of a contract or steps requested before a contract: where processing is necessary to enter into or perform an agreement with you as an individual.
- Legal obligation: where processing is necessary to comply with an obligation under applicable EU or UK law.
- Legitimate interests: to respond to enquiries, maintain appropriate business contact records, operate and secure the Website, prevent misuse, manage business relationships and protect our legal rights, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights and freedoms.
We send electronic marketing only where the rules applicable to that communication permit it. A legitimate interest in marketing does not, by itself, override a requirement to obtain consent.
Your Rights Under the GDPR
Where the GDPR or UK GDPR applies, you may, subject to the conditions and exceptions in that law:
- request access to your Personal Data;
- request correction of inaccurate or incomplete Personal Data;
- request erasure of Personal Data;
- request restriction of processing;
- object to processing based on legitimate interests;
- object at any time to the use of your Personal Data for direct marketing;
- request portability of eligible Personal Data; and
- withdraw consent for processing based on consent, without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.
You may exercise these rights by contacting us. You may also lodge a complaint with a competent data protection authority in the EU or the United Kingdom, as applicable.
Children’s Privacy
The Website is intended for a business audience and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly request Personal Data from children through the contact form. If you believe a child has provided Personal Data to us, please contact us so that we can review the matter.
Links to Other Websites
The Website may contain links to websites operated by others. We do not control their privacy practices. We encourage you to review their privacy notices when visiting those websites.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our practices, the Website or applicable requirements. We will post the revised Policy on this page and update the date above. Where required by law, we will provide additional notice or obtain consent before a material change takes effect.
