Winkler Consulting respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal information you provide through Winkler Consulting, available at www.winklerconsulting.ca (the “Website”).
This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect, why we collect it, how we use and protect it, and the choices available to you.
1. Personal Information We Collect
The Website is primarily an informational website.
We collect personal information only when you voluntarily provide it to us, such as when you contact us by email or through a contact form.
The information collected may include:
- Your name
- Your email address
- Your telephone number, if provided
- The contents of your message
- Any other information you voluntarily include in your communication
Please do not provide sensitive personal, financial, medical, or identification information through the Website.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the personal information you provide only to:
- Respond to your questions, messages, or requests
- Communicate with you regarding the services described on the Website
- Provide information you have requested
- Maintain appropriate records of our communications
- Protect the Website and prevent misuse
- Comply with applicable legal obligations
We will not use your personal information for a materially different purpose without obtaining your consent, unless otherwise permitted or required by law.
3. Consent
By voluntarily submitting personal information through the Website or contacting us by email, you consent to the collection, use, and retention of that information for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy.
You may withdraw your consent at any time, subject to legal or contractual restrictions, by contacting us using the information provided below.
Withdrawal of consent will not affect information that has already been used where such use was lawful.
4. Access to Your Information
Personal information submitted through the Website is reviewed and used only by the Website owner.
We do not sell, rent, trade, or disclose your personal information to third parties for advertising or marketing purposes.
The Website’s hosting provider, email provider, or other technical service providers may process information only to the extent necessary to operate, host, secure, or deliver communications from the Website. These providers do not receive permission from us to use your information for their own marketing purposes.
We may also disclose personal information where required by law, court order, legal process, or a lawful request from a government authority.
5. Cookies and Technical Information
The Website does not intentionally use advertising cookies, behavioural advertising tools, or tracking technologies to create profiles of visitors.
The Website’s hosting provider may automatically generate limited technical logs, such as an Internet Protocol address, browser type, access time, or requested page, for security, maintenance, and technical operation. The Website owner does not use this information to identify individual visitors.
6. Retention of Personal Information
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to:
- Respond to your request
- Maintain relevant business or communication records
- Resolve disputes
- Meet applicable legal, accounting, or reporting obligations
Information that is no longer required will be securely deleted, destroyed, or anonymized where reasonably practicable.
7. Protection of Personal Information
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards appropriate to the nature of the information we hold.
These measures may include password-protected accounts, access restrictions, secure devices, and reputable website hosting and email services.
However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is completely secure. We therefore cannot guarantee absolute security.
8. Accessing or Correcting Your Information
You may contact us to:
- Ask whether we hold personal information about you
- Request access to your personal information
- Ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete information
- Request deletion of your information, where applicable
- Withdraw your consent
- Raise a question or concern about our privacy practices
We may need to verify your identity before completing a request. Certain information may need to be retained where required or permitted by law.
9. External Links
The Website may contain links to websites or services operated by third parties.
We are not responsible for the privacy practices, security, or content of third-party websites. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any external website you visit.
10. International Processing
Depending on the providers used for website hosting or email services, personal information may be stored or processed outside your province or outside Canada.
When information is processed in another jurisdiction, it may be subject to the laws of that jurisdiction and may be accessible to courts, law-enforcement agencies, or government authorities in accordance with applicable law.
11. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to the Website, our practices, or applicable legal requirements.
The revised policy will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
