For visitors in Canada, we manage personal information in accordance with the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), where it applies.

  • Your name

2.3 Children

This website is not aimed at young children.

4. Legal Basis for Processing

4.1 Canada (including PIPEDA and comparable provincial laws)

We collect, use, and disclose personal information only for purposes that a reasonable person would consider appropriate in the circumstances, and we rely on:

  • Consent: When you voluntarily provide information (for example, through the contact form) and confirm agreement with this policy
  • Legitimate interests: Operating, securing, and improving the website, provided the impact on privacy is proportionate and not outweighed by your interests
  • Legal requirements: When we must retain or disclose information to comply with Canadian or other applicable law

Where consent is required and you withdraw it, we will stop using your information for those purposes unless another lawful basis applies or we are legally required to retain certain records.

4.2 European Economic Area (GDPR)

If you are in the EEA, we additionally process personal data on the following GDPR bases:

  • Consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR): When you submit the contact form with your explicit consent
  • Legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR): For website security and improvement
  • Legal obligation (Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR): When required by applicable law

5. Data Retention

We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy:

  • Contact form submissions: up to 12 months after the last communication
  • Server logs: up to 90 days
  • Cookie consent preferences: until you withdraw or modify your consent

6. Data Sharing

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal data to third parties. We may share data with:

  • Web hosting providers (for site operation)
  • Analytics services (if analytics cookies are accepted)
  • Legal authorities (when required by law)

Service providers who process personal information on our behalf are required to use appropriate safeguards and to process information only as we instruct them, consistent with PIPEDA (or applicable provincial law) and, where relevant, the GDPR.

7. Your Rights

7.1 Canada

Subject to legal exceptions, you may request access to the personal information we hold about you, ask us to update or correct it, and ask how we have used and disclosed it. You may also challenge our compliance with fair information practices by contacting us. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may contact the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada (OPC) or, where applicable, your provincial privacy commissioner or ombudsman.

7.2 European Economic Area (GDPR)

If the GDPR applies to you, you may have the following rights:

  • Right of access: Request a copy of your personal data
  • Right to rectification: Request correction of inaccurate data
  • Right to erasure: Request deletion of your personal data
  • Right to restriction: Request limitation of data processing
  • Right to data portability: Receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format
  • Right to object: Object to processing based on legitimate interest
  • Right to withdraw consent: Withdraw your consent at any time

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at support@phakronxuzvon.world. We will respond within a reasonable period and, for GDPR requests, within the timeframes required by law where applicable.

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal data, including:

  • HTTPS encryption for all data transmission
  • Restricted access to personal data on a need-to-know basis

9. Cookies

Our website uses cookies. For detailed information about the types of cookies we use and how to manage them, please refer to our Cookie Policy.

10. International Data Transfers

Our website may be hosted or supported by service providers in Canada and other countries. When personal information is stored or processed outside Canada, we take steps that are reasonable in the circumstances to ensure a comparable level of protection through contractual means, consent where appropriate, or other lawful mechanisms under PIPEDA (or applicable provincial law).

If your data is transferred outside the European Economic Area (EEA), we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place where required by the GDPR, including standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission or other approved mechanisms.

11. Regulatory Complaints

Canada: If you believe we have not handled your personal information appropriately, you may file a complaint with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada. Depending on your province, a provincial privacy commissioner or similar authority may also accept complaints about private-sector organizations.

European Economic Area: If you believe that our processing of your personal data violates data protection laws, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority in the EU member state of your habitual residence, place of work, or place of the alleged infringement.

12. Commercial Electronic Messages (Canada’s Anti-Spam Legislation — CASL)

We do not send unsolicited commercial electronic messages (such as marketing email or SMS) unless we have your express or implied consent as permitted by CASL, and each message identifies us and includes a functioning unsubscribe mechanism where required. Replies to your contact form inquiries are considered transactional communications related to your request and are not treated as promotional mailings. If we introduce optional newsletters or promotions, we will obtain appropriate consent and provide clear unsubscribe instructions.

13. Quebec Residents

If you reside in Quebec, the Act respecting the protection of personal information in the private sector (as modernized) may grant you additional rights, including enhanced transparency, rights regarding automated decision-making in prescribed circumstances, and the ability to request cessation of dissemination or de-indexing in certain cases. You may contact us using the details above to exercise those rights where they apply.

14. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
