At WebsiteIdeas.ca, we respect your privacy. This document explains what information we collect, why we collect it, and who we share it with. We have designed our data practices to be compliant with Canadian law (PIPEDA) and general global standards.
1. Information We Collect
We only collect information that is necessary to provide our services to you.
A. Information you give us directly
- Contact Information: When you download our checklist or book a sprint, we collect your Name and Email Address.
- Project Details: Information you provide about your website goals, links, and business needs via our intake forms.
- Payment Information: We process payments through third-party providers (Stripe via Cal.com). We do not store your credit card information on our servers.
B. Technical Data
- Usage Data: We may use privacy-friendly analytics to see which pages are visited (e.g., Fathom or Plausible). These tools do not track your personal identity across the web.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use your data for the following specific "jobs":
- To deliver the digital products you requested (e.g., emailing you the 1-Page Checklist).
- To schedule and manage your Website Idea Sprint (via Cal.com).
- To process your payment (via Stripe).
- To communicate with you about your project or booking.
- To improve our website based on anonymous usage trends.
3. Sharing Your Data
We do not sell your personal data to advertisers. We only share data with the trusted third-party tools necessary to run our business:
- Cal.com: To manage your booking schedule.
- Stripe: To securely process your credit card payment.
- Web Host/Email Provider: To technically transmit our emails to you.
4. Data Retention & Security
We keep your project data (such as your Idea Map PDF) on file so we can resend it if you lose it. If you wish for us to delete your project files after delivery, please email us.
We use standard security measures (HTTPS/SSL) to protect your data during transmission.
5. Your Rights
Regardless of where you live, we extend these rights to you:
- Access: You can ask what data we hold about you.
- Deletion: You can ask us to delete your personal data (unless we are required by law to keep it for tax/accounting purposes).
