What we collect
When you submit the contact form, we collect the information you provide: your name, company, email address, and any optional details you choose to include (telephone, website, company stage, revenue range, service interest, location, timing, and your message). We also record basic source information (such as the referring site or campaign parameters) to understand how enquiries reach us.
We do not ask for, and you should not send, confidential financial records, banking details, or sensitive personal information through the website.
How we use it
- To respond to your enquiry and assess whether we can help
- To administer any subsequent engagement
- To understand, in aggregate, how visitors find and use the site
We do not sell personal information, and we do not use enquiry information for marketing lists. No newsletter signup currently exists; if one is introduced, it will operate on an express-consent basis consistent with Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL).
