Consent: where you have given clear consent for a specific purpose, such as receiving marketing emails or accepting non-essential cookies
Contract: where processing is necessary to take steps at your request or to perform a contract with you
Legitimate interests: where processing is reasonably necessary for our legitimate business interests, such as operating our website, improving services, responding to inquiries, and managing business relationships, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights
Legal obligation: where processing is necessary to comply with applicable laws or regulations
Where PIPEDA applies, we obtain meaningful consent for the collection, use, and disclosure of personal information, except where otherwise permitted or required by law. You may withdraw consent at any time, subject to legal or contractual restrictions and reasonable notice.
We may use cookies, pixels, tags, and similar technologies to operate our website, understand how visitors use it, improve performance, remember preferences, and support marketing activities.
These technologies may include:
Strictly necessary cookies: required for website functionality and security

We do not sell personal information. We only share personal information as needed for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy or as otherwise permitted or required by law.
Your personal information may be stored or processed outside your province, territory, or country, including in jurisdictions where privacy laws may differ from those in your home jurisdiction. When we transfer personal data internationally, we take reasonable steps to ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, which may include contractual protections and security controls appropriate to the nature of the information.
We retain personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including to provide services, maintain records, comply with legal and financial obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the purpose for which it was collected.
We use administrative, technical, and physical safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of personal information to protect it against loss, theft, unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use, or modification. These measures may include restricted access, secure service providers, encryption where appropriate, password controls, and internal practices designed to limit unnecessary access.
No method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
