We do not use personal information for a new purpose that is incompatible with the purpose for which it was originally collected unless we obtain consent or the law otherwise permits the use.

Cookies, Google and Similar Technologies

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies.

Certain cookies are necessary for the operation, security or proper display of the website.

Other technologies may be used to understand how visitors use our website, measure conversions, evaluate advertising performance and improve our services.

Depending on the website’s active configuration, these technologies may include Google services such as:

  • Google Tag Manager;
  • Google Analytics;
  • Google Ads;
  • related conversion measurement and advertising performance technologies.

These technologies may collect information such as IP address, pages viewed, certain website interactions, device information, browser information and certain digital identifiers.

Where consent is legally required for a particular technology, consent is requested in accordance with applicable requirements.

Profiling and Advertising

Certain analytics or advertising technologies may analyze interactions with our website to help us understand how the website is used or how our advertising campaigns perform.

These activities may include:

  • measuring website visits and interactions;
  • identifying the general source of website traffic;
  • measuring quote requests or other conversions;
  • evaluating advertising campaign performance;
  • improving website content and user experience.

Entretien Pro-Écolo does not use this information to make significant decisions about an individual based exclusively on automated processing.

Consent

Where consent is required, we seek consent that is clear, free, informed and related to one or more specific purposes.

By voluntarily providing personal information in connection with an inquiry, quote request or service request, you consent to our use of that information to process your request and communicate with you about it.

If we wish to use personal information for a new purpose requiring separate consent, we will request that consent where required.

You may withdraw consent to certain uses or disclosures of your personal information, subject to applicable legal or contractual restrictions.

Withdrawal of consent may prevent Entretien Pro-Écolo from providing certain services where the information is necessary to provide those services.

Commercial Communications

Where required by law, we obtain consent before sending commercial electronic communications.

You may request that we stop sending such communications by using the unsubscribe mechanism provided, where applicable, or by contacting us directly.

Withdrawing consent to receive promotional communications does not prevent Entretien Pro-Écolo from contacting you regarding an active request, contract, service, invoice or another communication necessary to our business relationship.

Who May Access Your Personal Information?

Within Entretien Pro-Écolo, personal information is available only to individuals who reasonably require it to perform their duties.

This may include:

  • management;
  • administrative personnel;
  • personnel responsible for quotations and client service;
  • billing personnel;
  • individuals responsible for scheduling and delivering services;
  • individuals responsible for managing or maintaining our digital systems.

Access is limited according to operational requirements and individual responsibilities.

Service Providers and Third Parties

Entretien Pro-Écolo may use external service providers to perform certain functions necessary to its operations.

These may include providers of:

  • website hosting;
  • email services;
  • website management systems;
  • website forms;
  • information technology maintenance and security;
  • data storage and backup services;
  • accounting or billing services;
  • professional services;
  • website analytics;
  • digital advertising;
  • Google services associated with our website, analytics or advertising.

These providers may receive or process only the information necessary to perform the services assigned to them, subject to applicable laws and obligations.

We do not sell personal information belonging to our clients or website visitors.

We do not rent lists of personal information to third parties.

We may also disclose information where required or permitted by law, including in connection with a court order, regulatory obligation, lawful investigation or the protection of our legal rights.

Information Processed Outside Quebec

Some of our technology providers may operate infrastructure outside Quebec.

As a result, certain personal information may be disclosed, processed or stored outside Quebec, including elsewhere in Canada or in other countries.

Before entrusting personal information to a service provider outside Quebec where required by law, Entretien Pro-Écolo takes the necessary steps to assess privacy-related factors and determine whether the information will receive adequate protection.

Information processed in another jurisdiction may be subject to the laws applicable in that jurisdiction.

Retention of Personal Information

We retain personal information only for the period reasonably necessary to achieve the purposes for which it was collected and to comply with applicable legal, contractual, tax, accounting or administrative requirements.

Retention periods vary depending on factors such as:

  • the nature of the information;
  • why the information was collected;
  • whether a client relationship exists;
  • applicable legal obligations;
  • whether the information is needed to establish or defend legal rights.

Inquiries or quote requests that do not result in a business relationship are not intended to be retained indefinitely.

Records associated with an active or former client relationship may be retained for a longer period where necessary to provide services, manage the business relationship or comply with legal obligations.

Destruction or Anonymization

Once the purposes for which personal information was collected have been fulfilled and no legal obligation requires its continued retention, we take reasonable steps to:

  • securely destroy the information; or
  • anonymize it where the law permits its continued use in a form that no longer allows the individual to be identified.

Our destruction practices take into account the nature and sensitivity of the information.

Security

Entretien Pro-Écolo uses reasonable administrative, technical and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information against:

  • unauthorized access;
  • loss;
  • theft;
  • unauthorized disclosure;
  • alteration;
  • misuse;
  • unauthorized destruction.

Depending on the circumstances, these safeguards may include:

  • access controls;
  • account and password management;
  • website and information technology security measures;
  • backups;
  • security updates;
  • role-based access restrictions;
  • confidentiality obligations;
  • internal procedures governing personal information.

No electronic transmission or storage method can be considered completely risk-free.

Privacy Incidents

Entretien Pro-Écolo maintains procedures for assessing and managing incidents that may compromise the confidentiality of personal information.

Where an incident creates a risk of serious injury to affected individuals, we take the measures required by applicable legislation, which may include notifying affected individuals and the appropriate authorities.

Entretien Pro-Écolo also maintains information regarding privacy incidents as required by applicable law.

Entretien Pro-Écolo does not control the privacy practices of those third parties.
