Privacy & Data Practices

Plain‑language summary of how I collect, use, and protect information on themarketerguy.com.

Last updated: September, 2025 • Jurisdiction: British Columbia (PIPA) and applicable Canadian law (PIPEDA).

No sale of personal data. I don’t sell or rent your personal information.

Simple choices. You can request a copy, correction, or deletion of your data at any time.

BC & Canada first. I follow the principles of BC’s PIPA and Canada’s PIPEDA.

What I Collect

Information you provide
  • Contact details you submit (name, email, phone).
  • Messages sent via contact forms or email.
  • Newsletter sign‑ups (if you subscribe).
Information collected automatically

Like most sites, limited technical data may be collected by your browser or device (e.g., IP address, pages viewed, device type). If analytics are enabled, they help me understand site performance in aggregate.

How I Use Your Information

  • Respond to inquiries and provide services you request.
  • Send updates or newsletters (only if you opt in; you can unsubscribe anytime).
  • Improve content, user experience, and site reliability.
  • Protect the site, prevent spam or abuse, and meet legal obligations.

Cookies & Tracking

Essential cookies

Required for basic site functions (e.g., security, load balancing). You can block them in your browser, but parts of the site may not work.

Analytics/Performance

If enabled, analytics may set cookies to measure traffic and improve content. You can opt out by using your browser’s “Do Not Track”/cookie settings or contacting me.

Managing preferences

To adjust cookie preferences, use your browser settings or the preference link below.

Tip: If you use a cookie consent plugin (e.g., Complianz or CookieYes), place its shortcode here.

How Long I Keep Data

  • Contact inquiries: up to 12 months for follow‑up and record‑keeping.
  • Newsletter data: until you unsubscribe or request deletion.
  • Project/client records: as required for tax and accounting (typically 7 years in Canada).

When I Share Data

I don’t sell personal information. I may share limited data with trusted service providers that help operate this site or deliver services (for example: website hosting, email delivery, form handling, analytics if enabled). They are required to keep your information confidential and use it only for the agreed purpose. I may also disclose information if required by law.

Your Rights

  • Access the personal information I hold about you.
  • Request correction or deletion.
  • Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
  • Opt out of marketing communications at any time.

Questions or Concerns?

If you’re in British Columbia and have unresolved concerns, you may contact the Office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner for BC (OIPC).

This policy will be reviewed annually or when services or laws change.
