Collecting and Using Your Personal Data
While using Our Service, We may ask You to provide Us with certain personally identifiable information that can be used to contact or identify You, such as Your name and email address. Usage Data is collected automatically when using the Service and may include information such as Your Device’s Internet Protocol address (e.g. IP address), browser type, browser version, the pages of our Service that You visit, the time and date of Your visit, the time spent on those pages, unique device identifiers and other diagnostic data.
Tracking Technologies and Cookies
We use Cookies and similar technologies on Our Service. Necessary/Essential Cookies are set by Cloudflare, which delivers and protects the Website, to tell visitors from automated traffic, and by the Website itself to remember Your cookie choice. Analytics Cookies are set by Google Analytics, only after You click Accept on the Website’s cookie bar, to count visits and show Us how the Website is used. WordPress sets login Cookies only when a site administrator signs in. We do not use advertising or targeting Cookies. Our Cookie Policy lists each Cookie and how to control them.
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics, a service provided by Google, to see how visitors use the Website, such as which pages are viewed and how long a visit lasts, along with technical details about the browser and device. Google Analytics sets the Cookies _ga and _ga_<ID>, which last up to 180 days after Your last visit. Google states that Google Analytics 4 does not log or store IP addresses. How Google uses this information is described in the Google Privacy Policy and on How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services. We use Google Analytics only with Your consent: it runs only if You click Accept on the cookie bar the Website shows on Your first visit. Until You do, and whenever You choose Decline, the Website loads nothing from Google Analytics. You can change Your choice at any time with the Cookie Settings link at the bottom of every page; choosing Decline also removes the Google Analytics Cookies from Your browser. You can also block Cookies in Your browser or install the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
Cloudflare
The Website is delivered and protected by Cloudflare. Every request to the Website passes through Cloudflare’s network, which checks it for attacks and automated traffic. Cloudflare may set two Cookies for this: __cf_bm, which expires after 30 minutes of inactivity, and cf_clearance, which records that Your browser passed Cloudflare’s security check. Cloudflare describes these Cookies as strictly necessary to protect the Website. See the Cloudflare Privacy Policy.
Contact Form
When You send a message through the contact form, We receive Your name, Your email address and Your message by email. The email is delivered to Our inbox through Google’s Gmail service. The Website does not keep a copy of Your message. The form is protected by Cloudflare Turnstile, which checks that the form is sent by a person; Cloudflare states that Turnstile does not access or store what You type into the form (see the Turnstile Privacy Addendum). The form also keeps simple statistics on Our server: how often it is viewed and sent and how long it stays open, with a random identifier for each page view. These statistics do not include what You type.
Videos and Other Content from Third Parties
Video preview images on the Website are copies kept on Our own server, so opening a page sends nothing to YouTube. When You open a video, Your browser loads the Plyr video player from cdn.plyr.io and plays the video from YouTube’s privacy-enhanced domain (youtube-nocookie.com). What YouTube collects while a video plays is covered by the Google Privacy Policy. If Your browser cannot display an emoji on its own, WordPress loads the emoji image from WordPress.org (s.w.org). The Website’s fonts are served from Our own server.
Use of Your Personal Data
The Company may use Personal Data to provide and maintain our Service, to contact You regarding updates or informative communications related to the functionalities, products or contracted services, to manage Your requests, and to evaluate or conduct a business transfer. We may share Your personal information with Service Providers, in connection with a business transfer, with Affiliates, with business partners, or with Your consent.
Retention and Transfer of Your Personal Data
The Company will retain Your Personal Data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy and to comply with our legal obligations. Our web server keeps access logs, which record the IP address, the page requested, the referring page and the browser of each request, for 14 days. Daily backups of the Website and its database are kept on the server for about two weeks, and encrypted copies are kept with Amazon Web Services for about a month.
Your information, including Personal Data, is processed and stored outside Canada. Our server is hosted by Amazon Web Services in the United States (Ohio). Cloudflare handles each request in its global network. Google runs Google Analytics and Gmail. The data protection laws in these places may differ from those in Your jurisdiction. The Company will take all steps reasonably necessary to ensure that Your data is treated securely and in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
Delete Your Personal Data
You have the right to delete or request that We assist in deleting the Personal Data that We have collected about You. You may update, amend, or delete Your information at any time by contacting Us. Please note, however, that We may need to retain certain information when we have a legal obligation or lawful basis to do so.
Disclosure of Your Personal Data
If the Company is involved in a merger, acquisition or asset sale, Your Personal Data may be transferred. We will provide notice before Your Personal Data is transferred and becomes subject to a different Privacy Policy. Under certain circumstances, the Company may be required to disclose Your Personal Data if required to do so by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities (e.g. a court or a government agency).
Security of Your Personal Data
The security of Your Personal Data is important to Us, but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While We strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect Your Personal Data, We cannot guarantee its absolute security.
GDPR Privacy
We may process Personal Data under the following conditions: Consent: You have given Your consent for processing Personal Data for one or more specific purposes. Performance of a contract: Provision of Personal Data is necessary for the performance of an agreement with You and/or for any pre-contractual obligations thereof. Legal obligations: Processing Personal Data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which the Company is subject.

Public interests: Processing Personal Data is related to a task that is carried out in the public interest. Legitimate interests: Processing Personal Data is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by the Company.
Under the GDPR, You have the right to request access to Your Personal Data, request correction of inaccurate Personal Data, object to or request restriction of processing of Your Personal Data, request erasure of Your Personal Data, request the transfer of Your Personal Data, and withdraw Your consent. You also have the right to complain to a Data Protection Authority about Our collection and use of Your Personal Data.
Children’s Privacy
Our Service does not address anyone under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 13. If You are a parent or guardian and You are aware that Your child has provided Us with Personal Data, please contact Us. If We become aware that We have collected Personal Data from anyone under the age of 13 without verification of parental consent, We take steps to remove that information from Our servers.
If We need to rely on consent as a legal basis for processing Your information and Your country requires consent from a parent, We may require Your parent’s consent before We collect and use that information.

Links to Other Websites
Our Service may contain links to other websites that are not operated by Us. If You click on a third party link, You will be directed to that third party’s site. We strongly advise You to review the Privacy Policy of every site You visit. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies or practices of any third party sites or services.
