Your Rights Under GDPR
If you are located in the European Economic Area, 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. We will provide this information within one month of receiving your request.
Right to Rectification
You have the right to request that we correct any inaccurate personal data we hold about you, or complete any incomplete data.
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 purposes for which 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, and 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 we rely on consent as the legal basis for processing, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. This does not affect 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. In certain circumstances, we may extend this period by two months if your request is complex or we receive multiple requests from you.
We may need to verify your identity before processing your request. We will not charge a fee for most requests, but may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded or excessive.
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 GDPR. This means that personal data can be transferred from the EEA to Canada without additional safeguards.
Data Retention
We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by law. When personal data is no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymize it.
Complaints
If you believe that we have not complied with your data protection rights, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. If you are in the EEA, you may contact the data protection authority in your country of residence.
