Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Data Qualification (“we”, “us”) collects, uses and discloses personal information when you visit dataqualification.com or submit an enquiry through this website. Data Qualification operates from Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.

This policy applies to the public website and the Contact form. It does not apply to a later professional engagement, which would be governed by its own terms if you work with us.

We handle personal information in a manner consistent with applicable Canadian privacy laws. This Privacy Policy describes our current practices.

We collect personal information you choose to provide, and limited technical information that is processed automatically when you use the website.

When you use the Contact form, we collect your name, company, email address, telephone number if you choose to provide one, preferred language (English or Arabic), the service area you select, your message, and your consent to our using that information to respond to your enquiry.

This website does not currently offer user registration, login or payment processing.

When you visit the website, our hosting and content-delivery infrastructure may process technical information that web servers typically generate. This may include the requested page or URL, date and time, Internet Protocol (IP) address, general browser or device information, and response or status information. We use this kind of information to operate, secure and troubleshoot the website.

If you submit the Contact form, we may keep your IP address in server memory for a short period to limit repeated automated submissions. That record is not a visitor database.

Operational logs related to form delivery may record limited details such as the selected service area, language, and whether a telephone number was provided. They do not include the content of your message.

We use personal information to respond to enquiries and communicate with the person who submitted them, to operate and secure the website, to reduce spam and abuse, and to meet applicable legal obligations.

We do not use the Contact form to operate a marketing newsletter, and we do not currently run advertising or remarketing programmes on this website.

The Contact form is processed through the website's server-side application and delivered by email to info@dataqualification.com. We do not store form submissions in a website database. Your email address is used as the reply address so we can answer you. The message is then handled as ordinary business email by our email provider.

The form includes a technical anti-spam field that is not used to identify you. Submissions that appear to be automated are not delivered as enquiries.

This website uses limited functional storage. A locale cookie may be set so the site can remember whether you are viewing English or Arabic. Browser local storage may remember your theme preference (light, dark or system).

These tools operate the site as you configured it. They are not advertising cookies, and we do not use them to build advertising profiles.

This website does not currently use a configured website analytics service, advertising pixels or similar tracking software.

We use third-party service providers to host and operate the website and to deliver email communications. These providers may process information as necessary to provide those services and are subject to their own terms and privacy practices.

The website is hosted using third-party cloud infrastructure. Request handling, content delivery and runtime logging may form part of that hosting environment. We do not operate a separate customer database for website visitors.

We may disclose personal information to the service providers described above, where required by applicable law or legal process, or where needed to protect the rights, safety or security of Data Qualification, this website or others.

Data Qualification does not sell enquiry information or other personal information collected through this website.

Because Contact form submissions are delivered as email, they may remain in our mailbox for as long as reasonably necessary to respond, maintain an appropriate business record of the enquiry, meet applicable legal or accounting requirements, resolve disputes, and protect against abuse. We do not currently publish a fixed retention schedule. In-memory rate-limit records are temporary. Hosting and runtime logs may be retained by our service providers according to the applicable service configuration and policies.

We use reasonable safeguards appropriate to a commercial website, including encrypted connections for the site and for mail delivery. No method of transmission or storage over the Internet can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Our service providers may process information in Canada and in other countries where their infrastructure or operations are located. When information is processed outside Canada, it may be subject to the laws of those jurisdictions.

You may ask for access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information you previously submitted by emailing us at the address below. We will consider requests in accordance with applicable Canadian privacy laws and our operational and legal obligations.

We cannot promise that every record can be deleted in every case — for example, where information must be retained for legal, security or dispute-resolution reasons.

Depending on applicable Canadian privacy law, you may have rights to ask how we handle your personal information, request access or correction, and raise a concern with us. If your concern is governed by the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), you may also contact the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada.

This website is intended for business enquiries. It is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children through this website.

This website may contain links to third-party websites. Their privacy practices are their own, and this policy does not cover them.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will change the “Last updated” date on this page. The updated policy applies from that date.
