1. Introduction

1205 Consulting Inc. ("we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting the privacy of our clients, website visitors, and prospective clients. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and safeguard personal information when you interact with our website and services.

2. Information We Collect

We collect information you voluntarily provide when you contact us, including:

Name, email address, phone number, company name, and any details you include in your message through our contact form. We do not collect information automatically through cookies or tracking technologies beyond basic server logs that record IP addresses and page requests for security and performance purposes.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information you provide solely to respond to your inquiry, assess how we may assist you, and deliver our consulting services. We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes. We may share information with service providers who assist us in operating our website (e.g., form processing), subject to confidentiality obligations.

4. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected, comply with legal obligations, or resolve disputes. Contact form submissions are retained for up to 24 months unless a client engagement begins, in which case data is retained per the terms of the engagement agreement.

5. Data Security

We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your personal information. Our website is served over HTTPS, and form submissions are transmitted securely. However, no method of internet transmission is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

6. Your Rights

Under applicable Canadian privacy legislation (including PIPEDA), you have the right to access, correct, or request deletion of your personal information. To exercise these rights, contact us at contact@1205consulting.com. We will respond within 30 days.

7. Third-Party Services

Our website may contain links to third-party websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites. We use Formspree for contact form processing and Vercel for website hosting. Each operates under its own privacy policy.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. Your continued use of our website after any changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
