• Contractual Necessity: 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 a resident of the European Union, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

Right of 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 incomplete.

Right to Erasure: You have the right to request that we erase your personal data, under certain conditions.

Right to Restrict Processing: You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data, under certain conditions.

Exercising Your Rights

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at [email protected]. We will respond to your request within one month. In certain circumstances, we may extend this period by two months, in which case we will inform you of the extension and the reasons for it.

Please note that we may need to verify your identity before processing your request. We may also need to retain certain information for legal or administrative purposes.

International Data Transfers

As we are based in Canada, your personal data may be transferred to and processed in Canada. Canada has been recognized by the European Commission as providing an adequate level of data protection under the GDPR. This means that personal data can be transferred from the EU to Canada without additional safeguards.

Data Retention

We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected. The criteria used to determine our retention periods include the nature and sensitivity of the data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure, our legal obligations, and whether we can achieve the purposes through other means.

Security Measures

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include encryption, access controls, and regular security assessments.

Right to Lodge a Complaint

If you believe that your data protection rights have been violated, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority in the EU member state of your habitual residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement.
