Who we are and why this matters
Look, we get it - nobody really enjoys reading privacy policies. But here's the thing: we actually care about your information and want you to know exactly what we're doing with it. No corporate speak, no hiding behind jargon.
Nexus Val Quinth Architecture operates out of Toronto, and we're bound by Canadian privacy laws (specifically PIPEDA, if you wanna get technical). We've been designing spaces since we started, and throughout that time, we've collected some info from clients, potential clients, and website visitors. This policy breaks down what we collect, why we need it, and how we keep it safe.
If something here doesn't make sense or you've got questions, just reach out. We're architects, not lawyers, so we'll explain things in plain English.
The data we gather and where it comes from
When you reach out through our contact forms, schedule a consultation, or send us an email, you're voluntarily sharing stuff like:
Like most websites nowadays, we automatically gather some technical info when you visit:
Once we're working together, we'll collect additional info necessary for your project - site surveys, photos, architectural drawings, building permits, contractor details, and whatever else we need to make your vision happen. This is all part of our professional service agreement.
What happens with your data
We're not in the business of selling data or bombarding you with spam. Here's what we actually do with your information:
Responding to inquiries, scheduling consultations, delivering architectural services, and keeping you updated on your project's progress. Pretty straightforward stuff.
We analyze how people use our site to make it better. If everyone's bouncing off a particular page, we wanna know so we can fix it.
Maintaining records as required by professional architectural standards and Canadian law. We need to keep project files and communications for regulatory purposes.
If you've worked with us or expressed interest, we might send occasional emails about new projects, sustainability tips, or changes to our services. You can opt out anytime - we won't be offended.
What you can do with your data
Under Canadian privacy law, you've got some solid rights when it comes to your personal information. Here's what you can do:
Request a copy of the personal information we hold about you.
If something's wrong or outdated, let us know and we'll fix it.
Ask us to delete your info (subject to legal retention requirements).
Opt out of marketing emails or other non-essential communications.
To exercise any of these rights, just shoot us an email at info@nexusvalquinth.info. We'll respond within 30 days. Keep in mind that we might need to verify your identity before processing certain requests.
