Privacy Policy (PIPEDA)

We collect personal information that is reasonably necessary to provide educational program information, respond to inquiries, and maintain basic site operations. The categories below describe what we may collect, depending on how you interact with the website.

We collect information through several straightforward methods:

• Web forms: When you submit a contact request or newsletter sign-up, the information you type into the form is sent to us. You can choose how much information to provide, and we mark required fields clearly.
• Cookies and local storage: Our cookie banner stores your cookie preference so we can respect your choice on future visits. Where analytics is enabled, cookies or similar identifiers may be used to understand aggregated site usage.
• Analytics tools (optional): We may use privacy-respecting analytics configurations to understand how educational pages perform. If analytics cookies are rejected, we aim to limit analytics to essential measurement where possible and to honor consent choices.
• Server logs: Like most websites, our servers record basic request information (such as IP address and timestamps) to operate the site reliably and to help detect abuse.

We do not use deceptive techniques to collect data. We do not hide forms, do not cloak content, and do not use pop-ups that block content before the main page loads.

We use personal information for specific, limited purposes that are consistent with an educational program and reasonable expectations:

We do not use your personal information to provide financial services or to offer investment opportunities. Any references to tools, platforms, or payment methods are for educational explanation only.

Under PIPEDA, consent is a key principle. Depending on the context, consent may be express (for example, ticking a checkbox to receive educational emails) or implied (for example, providing your email in a support request where a response is expected).

• Withdrawing consent: You may withdraw consent for marketing emails at any time via unsubscribe links or by contacting us. Withdrawal does not affect processing already completed.
• Cookie preferences: You can accept or reject cookies using the banner on the site. You can also clear your browser cookies to reset choices. See Cookie Policy.
• Limiting data you provide: You can choose not to submit optional fields. If certain fields are required to respond, we label them as required.

If you have questions about consent or want clarification on a specific data practice, contact our Privacy Office (see the end of this policy).

Cookies are small text files stored on your device. Some cookies are necessary for basic site functions, while others help measure aggregated usage. We also use local storage to remember cookie preferences so the banner does not reappear every time.

For a more detailed explanation of cookie types and how to manage them, please read our Cookie Policy. You can also manage cookies through your browser settings, including deleting cookies or blocking future cookies for this site.

We do not sell personal information. We may share limited personal information with service providers that help us operate the website and deliver communications, under contractual confidentiality and security obligations.

We may disclose personal information if required by law, regulation, legal process, or a lawful request by public authorities. If we receive a legally valid request, we limit disclosure to what is necessary and appropriate.

Our Company is registered in the United States and operates support services in Toronto, Canada. Some service providers that help us host or maintain the website may process information in Canada, the United States, or other jurisdictions. When information is processed outside of Canada, it may be subject to the laws of that jurisdiction, including lawful access by courts or law enforcement.

We take reasonable steps to protect personal information through contractual measures, limited access, and security controls appropriate to the sensitivity of the information. We aim to share only what is necessary with service providers.

We retain personal information only as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required by law or is necessary to resolve disputes. Retention depends on the category of information:

When information is no longer needed, we take reasonable steps to delete, anonymize, or securely destroy it.

We use administrative, technical, and physical safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the information. No method of storage or transmission is perfect, but we work to reduce risk through reasonable measures such as:

• Access controls: limiting access to personal information to staff or contractors who need it for support and operations
• Secure transmission: using HTTPS for data in transit where supported
• Operational monitoring: monitoring for abuse, suspicious traffic, and error conditions
• Vendor management: selecting service providers that offer security features and contractual protections
• Data minimization: collecting only what is needed for the educational purpose and support

If we become aware of a breach involving personal information that creates a real risk of significant harm, we will take reasonable steps consistent with applicable laws to mitigate harm and provide notifications where required.

Subject to limited exceptions permitted by law, you may request access to the personal information we hold about you and request corrections if it is inaccurate or incomplete. You may also request deletion or anonymization when appropriate. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe and may need to verify your identity to protect your privacy.

This website is designed for learners who can understand business and digital systems education. It is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from individuals under 16. If we learn that we have collected personal information from someone under 16 without appropriate consent, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.

If you believe a minor has provided personal information to us, please contact our Privacy Office and include enough detail for us to locate the record (such as the email address used).

We may update this policy to reflect changes to our practices, technology, or legal requirements. When we make material changes, we will post the updated policy on this page and revise the “Last Updated” date. If a change significantly affects how we use personal information you provided, we may also provide additional notice through the website or email, depending on the context.
