Under PIPEDA, we collect, use, and disclose personal information with consent or as otherwise permitted or required by law. We ensure our collection and use are reasonable and appropriate in the circumstances:

  • Implied Consent: May apply where the purpose of the collection or use is clear and you voluntarily provide the information.
  • Express Consent: Required for certain data uses (e.g., marketing messages under CASL). You can withdraw consent at any time by unsubscribing or contacting us at info@tonnic.agency.

4. Note for U.S. Residents

While we are a Canadian company, we also serve customers located in the United States. We strive to comply with relevant U.S. data-protection requirements as applicable. If you have questions about how your data is handled under specific U.S. regulations (e.g., California Consumer Privacy Act), please contact us at info@tonnic.agency.

5. Data Retention

We retain personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy, or as required or permitted by law. After this period, we securely delete or anonymize the data. To request deletion of your data, contact us at info@tonnic.agency.

We use AI-driven chatbots and automated systems to enhance user experience and service efficiency. No significant decisions (like credit eligibility or pricing) are made solely by automated means without human review. If you have concerns about how our AI tools handle your data, contact us at info@tonnic.agency.

9. International Transfers

While our primary operations and servers may be located in Canada, certain service providers (e.g., cloud hosting) could be based outside of Canada. In such instances, we ensure appropriate safeguards (e.g., contractual clauses) to protect personal information, consistent with Canadian privacy requirements.

10. Data Security

We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, or misuse. Despite these efforts, no security measure is foolproof, and we cannot guarantee absolute protection.
