Privacy Policy

We take your privacy seriously - here's the straight talk about how we handle your information

Last Updated: October 20, 2025

Introduction

Look, we get it - privacy policies can be a real snooze-fest. But this stuff matters, especially when you're trusting us with details about your dream project or commercial venture. At Crimson Valor Architecture, we're not interested in being shady with your data. This policy lays out exactly what we collect, why we need it, and how we keep it safe.

We're based in Toronto, Ontario, and we follow Canadian privacy laws (PIPEDA, for those keeping score at home). Whether you're reaching out for a residential redesign or a full-scale commercial development, your information stays protected.

What Information We Collect

We're not here to collect data just for the sake of it. Here's what we actually need:

Personal Details
  • Name and contact info (email, phone)
  • Mailing address for project documentation
  • Company details for commercial clients
Project Information
  • Property details and site specifics
  • Budget ranges and timeline expectations
  • Design preferences and requirements
Technical Data
  • IP address and browser type
  • Pages visited and time spent
  • Device information
Communication Records
  • Emails and inquiry submissions
  • Phone call notes and meetings
  • Feedback and testimonials

How We Use Your Information

Your data isn't just sitting in a database collecting digital dust. Here's what we actually do with it:

Project Development & Consultation

We need your info to understand your vision, create proposals, and deliver the architectural solutions you're looking for.

Communication & Updates

Keeping you in the loop about your project status, sending design revisions, and answering your questions.

Legal & Contractual Obligations

Sometimes we're required to keep records for regulatory compliance, permits, and professional liability purposes.

Website Improvement

Analytics help us figure out what's working and what's not, so we can make the site better for everyone.

When We Share Information

We're not in the business of selling your data - that's not our style. But there are a few situations where we might need to share information:

Service Providers

We work with contractors, engineers, and consultants who help bring projects to life. They only get the info they need to do their part, and they're bound by confidentiality agreements.

Legal Requirements

If we're legally required to disclose information (court orders, regulatory requests, etc.), we'll comply - but we'll let you know unless we're prohibited from doing so.

Portfolio & Marketing

We love showing off our work, but we'll always ask for your permission before featuring your project in our portfolio or marketing materials.

Cookies & Tracking Technologies

Yeah, we use cookies - not the chocolate chip kind, unfortunately. These little bits of data help us remember your preferences and understand how people use the site.

Cookie Type Purpose Duration
Essential Keep the website functioning properly Session
Analytics Help us understand visitor behavior 2 years
Preferences Remember your settings and choices 1 year

You can disable cookies in your browser settings, but heads up - some features might not work as smoothly.

How We Protect Your Data

Security isn't just a checkbox for us - it's baked into everything we do. We've got multiple layers of protection in place:

Encryption

All data transmission uses SSL/TLS encryption - that's the padlock you see in your browser.

Secure Servers

We use Canadian-based servers with enterprise-grade security measures and regular backups.

Access Controls

Only authorized team members can access client data, and every access is logged.

Regular Updates

We keep our systems patched and updated to protect against new security threats.

Your Privacy Rights

This is your data, and you've got rights. Here's what you can do:

Access Your Data

Want to see what info we have on you? Just ask - we'll provide a copy within 30 days.

Correct Inaccuracies

If something's wrong or outdated, let us know and we'll fix it right away.

Request Deletion

Want us to delete your data? We'll honor that request, unless we're legally required to keep it.

Opt-Out

Don't want marketing emails? No problem - there's an unsubscribe link in every message.

Changes to This Policy

Privacy laws evolve, and so do we. If we make any significant changes to this policy, we'll let you know via email and update the "Last Updated" date at the top. We won't make changes that affect how we handle data we've already collected without giving you a heads up first.

For minor tweaks (like fixing typos or clarifying existing practices), we'll just update the policy and the date. It's a good idea to check back here occasionally to stay in the loop.

Questions or Concerns?

If you've got questions about this policy or how we handle your information, don't hesitate to reach out. We're here to help, and we'll respond as quickly as we can.
