Get in TouchPam Lavallee Corporate Services ("we," "us," "our," or the "Company") is committed to protecting the privacy and security of the personal information we collect, use, and disclose in the course of our business operations in Ontario. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle personal information in compliance with the federal Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), which governs the collection, use, and disclosure of personal information by private-sector organizations in Ontario. Ontario does not currently have its own general private-sector privacy statute, so PIPEDA serves as the primary law governing how we handle your personal information, alongside applicable common law protections recognized by Ontario courts, such as the tort of intrusion upon seclusion.
By using our website or engaging our services, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with the terms outlined here, we encourage you to contact us before providing any personal information.
This Privacy Policy applies to personal information collected through our website, in the course of providing our services, and through any other interactions you may have with us, including phone calls, emails, and in-person consultations. It does not apply to information collected by third parties, including any linked websites, service providers, or partners who maintain their own privacy practices.
Depending on the nature of your relationship with us, we may collect the following categories of personal information:
We only collect personal information that is reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes identified at or before the time of collection, in keeping with PIPEDA's principle of limiting collection.
We use personal information for purposes that a reasonable person would consider appropriate in the circumstances, including to:
We will not use your personal information for purposes beyond those identified at the time of collection without obtaining your additional consent, unless otherwise permitted or required by law.
In accordance with PIPEDA, we collect, use, and disclose personal information only with the knowledge and consent of the individual, except where consent is not required by law — for example, in connection with legal proceedings, to comply with a court order, or to investigate a breach of an agreement. Consent may be express or implied, depending on the sensitivity of the information involved and the reasonable expectations of the individual in the circumstances. You may withdraw your consent at any time, subject to legal or contractual restrictions, by contacting us using the information provided below. Please note that withdrawing consent may affect our ability to continue providing certain services.
We do not sell, rent, or trade personal information. We may disclose personal information to third parties only in the following circumstances:
Some of our service providers, including cloud storage or software providers, may store or process personal information outside of Canada, including in the United States. Where this occurs, personal information may be subject to the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is held, including potential access by foreign authorities under local law. We take reasonable steps to ensure that any third party handling personal information on our behalf provides a comparable level of protection, consistent with PIPEDA's accountability principle.
We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by law, regulatory obligations, or applicable Ontario limitation periods. Once personal information is no longer required, we take reasonable steps to securely destroy, delete, or anonymize it.
We maintain administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information against loss, theft, unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use, or modification. These safeguards are designed to be proportionate to the sensitivity of the information involved, in keeping with PIPEDA's safeguarding principle. While we take reasonable measures to protect your information, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Subject to certain exceptions provided by law, you have the right to:
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the information below. We may require you to verify your identity before processing your request, and we will respond within the timeframe required by PIPEDA.
