• Contract: Processing is necessary to fulfill a contract with you or take steps at your request before entering into a contract.
• Legitimate interests: Processing is necessary for our legitimate interests, such as improving our services, provided these interests are not overridden by your rights.
• Legal obligation: Processing is necessary to comply with applicable laws.

Your Rights Under GDPR

If you are located in the EEA, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

Right of Access

You have the right to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you and information about how we process it.

Right to Rectification

You have the right to request that we correct any inaccurate or incomplete personal data we hold about you.

Right to Erasure

You have the right to request that we delete your personal data in certain circumstances, 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 in certain circumstances, such as when you contest the accuracy of the data.

Right to Data Portability

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

Right to Object

You have the right to object to processing of your personal data based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing purposes.

Right to Withdraw Consent

Where processing is based on consent, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

Exercising Your Rights

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at [email protected]. We will respond to your request within one month, though this period may be extended for complex requests. We may need to verify your identity before processing your request.

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 adequate protection for personal data. Where we transfer data to other countries, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place.

Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected. When determining retention periods, we consider:

• The nature and sensitivity of the personal data
• The purposes for which we process the data
• Applicable legal, regulatory, or contractual requirements
• Our legitimate business interests

Automated Decision-Making

We do not use automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal effects or similarly significantly affects you.

Complaints

If you believe we have not handled your personal data properly, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. If you are in the EEA, you can contact the data protection authority in your country of residence.
