3. Information We Collect
We collect only the personal information that is reasonably necessary to operate our website and deliver our services. The categories of information we may collect are described below.
Information you provide directly
When you contact us by email, by phone, or through any form on our website, you may provide us with your name, email address, phone number, company name, and the content of your message. If you engage us for a project, you may also provide billing details, project requirements, and technical information about your existing systems.
Information collected automatically
When you visit our website, certain information is collected automatically through server logs and analytics technologies. This may include your internet protocol address, browser type and version, device type, operating system, referring pages, pages viewed, and the date and time of your visit. This information is generally aggregated and does not directly identify you.
Information we do not collect
We do not knowingly collect sensitive personal information such as government identifiers, health data, or financial account numbers through this website. We also do not collect payment card information, as any payments are processed through third party providers that have their own privacy practices.
We do not use invasive tracking techniques such as keystroke logging or covert device fingerprinting, and we do not attempt to link your browsing activity on this website to your identity for advertising purposes. Our data collection is designed to be minimal and proportionate to the services we actually provide.
4. How We Collect Information
We collect personal information through several channels. First, we collect information that you voluntarily provide when you reach out to us, whether by sending an email to inquiry@unpas.buzz, calling us at +18146359317, or submitting a request through our website. Second, we collect information automatically through the operation of our website, including the use of cookies and similar technologies described later in this policy.
Third, we may receive information from third parties where you have authorized them to share it with us, or where such sharing is permitted by law. For example, a business partner may introduce you to us for a project, or a service provider may transmit technical information needed to complete an integration.
We aim to collect personal information directly from you wherever possible. If we receive personal information about you from another source, we will use it only for the purposes for which it was provided and in line with this policy.
Where we engage a third party to help deliver a project, that third party may process limited personal information on our behalf, and we require such parties to adhere to confidentiality and data protection commitments consistent with this policy.
5. How We Use Your Information
We use personal information for a limited set of legitimate business purposes. These include responding to your enquiries and requests for quotes, preparing proposals and scoping projects, delivering and managing the computer systems design and integration services you have requested, and communicating with you about your project.
We also use personal information to maintain and improve our website, to understand how visitors interact with our content, and to detect and prevent security incidents or misuse. Where required, we use contact details to send administrative messages about changes to our services, our terms, or this policy.
We do not use automated decision making in a way that produces legal or similarly significant effects on you, and we do not sell your personal information to anyone. We do not send marketing communications without your consent where consent is required.
We may combine information collected from different sources to better understand a project or to provide a more coherent service, but only where that combination is consistent with the purposes described above and does not result in unexpected or objectionable uses of your information.
6. Legal Bases for Processing
Where the law requires us to identify a legal basis for processing personal information, we rely on one or more of the following. We process information to perform a contract with you, such as delivering services you have requested and managing our relationship. We process information to pursue our legitimate business interests, including operating, securing, and improving our website and services, provided those interests are not overridden by your privacy rights.
In some circumstances we process information to comply with a legal obligation, such as maintaining records required by tax or corporate law. Finally, we may process information on the basis of consent where consent is the appropriate basis, for example when you choose to receive optional communications from us. You may withdraw consent at any time by contacting us.
9. Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. The exact retention period depends on the nature of the information and the purpose for which it was collected.
For example, enquiry and correspondence records are typically retained for a reasonable period to respond to follow up questions and to maintain a record of our business relationship. Project documentation may be retained for the duration of a project and for a period afterward to support warranty and support obligations. Billing and financial records are retained as required by applicable tax and accounting laws.
When personal information is no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymize it so that it can no longer be associated with an identifiable individual.
Retention periods are reviewed periodically. Where we determine that a shorter retention period is appropriate, we will shorten it accordingly, and where law or legitimate business need requires a longer period, we will document that need and continue to protect the information for the duration.
10. Data Security
We take reasonable and appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect personal information against loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. These measures include administrative safeguards such as limiting access to personnel who need it, technical safeguards such as secure transmission protocols and access controls, and physical safeguards for our premises and equipment.
No method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure. While we strive to protect your information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure, please contact us immediately.
In the event of a data breach that poses a real risk of significant harm to you, we will notify affected individuals and any relevant authorities as required by applicable law.
11. Your Privacy Rights
Depending on your location and the laws that apply to you, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information. These rights may include the right to access the personal information we hold about you, the right to request correction of inaccurate information, and the right to request deletion of your information in certain circumstances.
You may also have the right to restrict or object to certain processing activities, the right to data portability, and the right to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details provided in the contact section below. We will respond to your request within the timeframes required by applicable law.
We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling a request. In some cases, legal or contractual obligations may prevent us from deleting certain information, and we will explain the basis for any such limitation when it applies.
If you are located in a jurisdiction that provides a right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, you may do so. We would nevertheless appreciate the opportunity to address your concern directly first, and we encourage you to reach out to us before escalating any matter.
12. International Data Transfers
UnPas is based in Canada, and personal information we collect is generally processed in Canada. However, some of our service providers may operate in other jurisdictions, including the United States and other countries. When we transfer personal information across borders, we take steps to ensure that it receives a comparable level of protection.
Where personal information is transferred to a jurisdiction that does not provide an equivalent level of protection, we rely on appropriate safeguards, such as contractual clauses, and we limit the transfer to information that is necessary for the service being provided. By using our website and services, you understand that your information may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your own.
13. Privacy for Children
Our website and services are intended for businesses and adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of thirteen. If you are a parent or guardian and you believe that your child has provided personal information to us, please contact us immediately.
If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child without verifiable parental consent, we will take steps to delete that information as quickly as possible. We encourage parents and guardians to monitor their childrens online activity and to help enforce this policy by instructing children never to provide personal information through our website.
14. Third Party Links and Services
Our website may contain links to third party websites, plugins, or services that are not operated by us. This privacy policy does not apply to those third parties. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of any third party, and we encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third party sites you visit.
If you access our services through a third party platform, or if a third party integrates with our systems as part of a project, the handling of your information may be subject to that third partys policies as well as ours. We will only engage third parties that we believe provide appropriate protections, but we cannot control their independent practices.
15. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, our services, or applicable law. When we make material changes, we will update the effective date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, provide a more prominent notice.
We encourage you to review this policy periodically so that you remain informed about how we protect your information. Your continued use of our website after any changes to this policy become effective constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.
