What information may be collected
The information collected depends on how you interact with the site. It can include your name, email address, message contents, project details you submit, account or portal details, invoices or purchase records, and routine technical logs such as IP address, request metadata, and browser information used for security, fraud prevention, and operational troubleshooting.
Why information is used
- To respond to inquiries and provide estimates or technical guidance.
- To deliver custom development, maintenance, debugging, infrastructure, or consulting services.
- To manage billing, payment processing, and client portal access.
- To maintain security, detect abuse, investigate incidents, and keep the service reliable.
- To comply with contractual, accounting, tax, and legal obligations.
Legal basis and consent
Where consent is required, it is requested at the point of collection. In other cases, information may be processed because it is necessary to communicate with you, deliver requested services, protect the business and its systems, or comply with legal obligations. You may withdraw consent where the law allows, subject to contractual or legal restrictions.
Sharing with service providers
Information may be shared with carefully selected third parties only where needed to operate the service, such as payment processors, hosting providers, email delivery providers, and infrastructure vendors. These providers only receive the information needed for their role and may process data outside Canada.
International transfers
If service providers or infrastructure are located outside Canada, your information may be processed in other jurisdictions. When that happens, comparable contractual and operational safeguards are used where appropriate, but foreign laws may permit government or regulatory access under those jurisdictions.
Retention
Information is kept only as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose it was collected, including service delivery, dispute handling, fraud prevention, backups, and legal or tax recordkeeping. Inquiry submissions and form data may be deleted earlier when no longer needed. Security or audit logs may be retained for a limited period where operationally necessary.
Your rights
Subject to applicable law, you may request access to personal information, ask for corrections, request deletion where appropriate, or ask questions about how information is handled. To make a request, use the contact page and clearly describe the request so identity and scope can be verified.
Complaints
If you have a concern about how personal information is handled, please raise it first through the contact page. If the matter is not resolved, you may complain to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada.
