Information shared with these third-party services will be treated and stored in accordance with their respective privacy policies and our privacy policy.

All contact details and other information voluntarily provided by users through the website, including contact forms, requests for information, newsletter subscriptions or direct communications, are shared with our HubSpot account for storage, organization and further processing. This transfer is intended to enable Avro GSE to conduct targeted advertising campaigns and personalized communications based on users’ demonstrated interest in our products and services.

Avro GSE will send you an email or post a prominent notice on our website before your information becomes subject to another privacy policy. 6.6. Protection of Avro GSE and Others. We release personal information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce or apply our terms and conditions and other agreements, or protect the rights, property, or safety of Avro GSE, our users, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction.

In the event of a security breach that compromises the confidentiality of the personal data of our users, Avro GSE undertakes to notify those affected in a timely manner. This notification will be made through the means of contact that have been provided by the user on our website. We will take all reasonable measures to protect the information and remedy any situation that compromises the security of your data. 

Avro GSE may transfer users’ personal data outside their country of origin due to the use of hosting, storage, and processing services provided by third parties operating servers located in different countries. These transfers are necessary to ensure the continued operation of the website. Although Avro GSE is based in Canada, the technological infrastructure used may involve the storage or processing of data in jurisdictions with data protection laws that differ from those in Canada or your country of origin.

Avro GSE is committed to ensuring that all international transfers of personal data comply with applicable data protection regulations, including appropriate security measures to safeguard user information. This includes, among other things, the application of standard contractual clauses, assessment of the adequacy of data protection in the receiving country, and compliance with applicable privacy rules on third party services.

By using Avro GSE’s services, users consent to the transfer, storage and processing of their data on servers located outside their country of residence, acknowledging that such transfers are necessary for the operation of the website and our services. Avro GSE undertakes to take all reasonable steps to protect the integrity and security of personal data during such international transfers.

We grant access to your personal information only to those outside persons or services that have a legitimate need to know it and in accordance with our privacy policy. We adhere to industry-recognized security standards to protect your personal information, both during transmission and in storage. However, it is important to note that no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is foolproof and 100% secure. Therefore, while we at Avro GSE strive to implement commercially viable data protection methods, we cannot ensure absolute security of your personal information. We undertake not to sell, distribute or transfer your personal data to unauthorized third parties, unless we have your explicit consent or are required by law to do so.

Users who provide information through our website, as data subjects, have the right to access, rectify, download or delete their information, as well as to restrict and oppose certain processing of their information. While some of these rights apply generally, others only apply in certain limited circumstances. These rights are described below:

  • Access and portability: to access and know what information is stored on our servers, you can send us your request through our contact information.
  • Rectification, restriction, limitation and deletion: You may also rectify, restrict, limit or delete much of your information.
  • Right to be informed: Users of our website will be informed, upon request, about what data we collect, how it is used, how long it is kept and whether it is shared with third parties.
  • Object: Where we process your data based on our legitimate interests, as explained above, or in the public interest, you may object to this processing in certain circumstances. In such cases, we will stop processing your information unless we have legitimate grounds to continue processing it or where necessary for legal reasons.
  • Withdraw consent: Where you have previously given your consent, for example to allow us to process and store your personal information, you have the right to withdraw your consent to the processing and storage of your information at any time. For example, you can withdraw your consent by updating your settings. In certain cases, we may continue to process your information after you have withdrawn your consent if we have a lawful basis for doing so or if your withdrawal of consent was limited to certain processing activities.
  • Complaint: If you wish to lodge a complaint about our use of your information (and without prejudice to any other rights you may have), you have the right to do so with your local supervisory authority. Users may exercise all of these rights by contacting us via the contact information or contact page.
  • Rights related to automated decision-making, including profiling: Users may request that we provide them with a copy of the automated processing activities we conduct if they believe that data is being unlawfully processed.

Users or holders of personal data provided through the website may exercise these rights over their personal data at any time and without limitation by sending their request through our contact information. The request to exercise your rights will be attended and answered within a reasonable period of time.

We comply with the requirements of national and international data protection regulations regarding the protection of personal data of minors. We do not collect any information from children under the age of 13 (minimum age allowed to collect and process information without parental or legal guardian consent). If we become aware that a child under the age of 13 has provided us with personal information, we will take steps to delete such information.

Except as expressly included in this privacy policy, this document only addresses the use and disclosure of information that Avro GSE collects from you. If you disclose your information to third parties, different rules may apply to their use or disclosure of the information you disclose to them. Avro GSE does not control the privacy policies of third parties, and you are subject to the privacy policies of such third parties where applicable. Avro GSE is not responsible for the privacy or security practices of third parties, including those linked to or from the website. Please refer to the privacy policies of any third-party websites or services you access through the website.
