We collect and handle personal information to support our focus on Life in Focus People, Culture and Everyday Change. Our address is 3731 Millar Ct, Abbotsford, BC V2S 7K5, Canada and our phone number is 604-866-0057.
Who This Policy Applies To
This notice covers all visitors to the site, including individuals in Canada who browse content, submit forms on the Contacts page, or interact with our commercial offerings. It does not apply to employees or job applicants, who receive separate notices.
Types of Personal Information We Collect
We obtain contact details such as name and phone number directly from you when you use the contact form. Usage information like pages viewed and device type is collected automatically through standard web technologies. No information is purchased from third parties.
Purposes of Processing and Legal Bases
We process information to respond to inquiries submitted via the contact form, which relies on your consent. Site functionality and security maintenance occur under legitimate interests. Commercial communications are sent only with prior consent. Each purpose is limited to what is necessary for that activity.
Is Providing Information Required
Supplying details through the contact form is voluntary. Choosing not to provide information means we cannot respond to your specific request, though you may still browse most public pages.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
We use cookies for basic site operation and analytics. Details appear in our separate Cookie Policy, which explains how to adjust preferences through your browser settings.
Who Receives Your Information
Service providers such as hosting platforms and analytics tools receive limited data under contracts that require confidentiality. We disclose information only when required by law or to protect legal rights. No sale of personal information occurs.
International Transfers
Some service providers may be located outside Canada. When transfers happen, we use contractual safeguards consistent with PIPEDA requirements to protect the data.
How Long We Keep Information
Contact form details are retained for up to two years after the last interaction to handle follow-up requests. Usage logs are kept for twelve months for security review. Criteria for longer retention include legal obligations or ongoing disputes.
Security Measures and Data Minimisation
We apply technical safeguards including encryption in transit and access controls. Data collection is limited to what is needed for each stated purpose. No guarantee of absolute security is made, as all online systems carry inherent risks.
Your Rights Under Canadian Law
You may request access to your personal information, corrections, or withdrawal of consent by contacting us at 604-866-0057 or through the form on the Contacts page. We respond within thirty days as required by PIPEDA.
Withdrawing Consent and Objecting to Marketing
Consent can be withdrawn at any time by using the contact form or calling 604-866-0057. You may also object to any future marketing contacts through the same channels.
Complaints to the Privacy Commissioner
If you are unsatisfied with our response, you may file a complaint with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada. Contact details for the Office are available on their official website.
