We will only collect and use your Personal Data where:

  • we are providing something requested or desired by you (including but not limited to service calls, newsletters, and giveaway prizes) and need your Personal Data to customize and/or deliver it; and
  • we have a legitimate interest in using your Personal Data and your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests.

If you have any questions about this policy or about how we use your Personal Data, please contact us.

This information is voluntarily provided by you and will be treated confidentially by us.

Cookies

This website uses cookies to automatically recognize logged in administrative users and returning visitors (you, if you’ve used the contact form or any of the other forms on this site). Google Analytics also uses cookies in relation to this website to help us learn more about how visitors use the site, and some other third-party plugins may do so as well (including social media sharing tools). These cookies are only used to provide anonymous statistics to us and create an enjoyable user experience for you.

Use of your Personal Data

We will only use your Personal Data when the law allows us to. Most commonly, we (and the services we rely on) use your Personal Data to:

  • manage this website and keep it safe (i.e., website security);

  • where you have opted-in to receive contact from us, deliver news and marketing emails that are relevant to your preferences / may be of interest to you (i.e., MailerLite newsletter); and
  • improve our services and website through analysis of information (i.e., Burst Statistics reports, MailerLite reports).

Outside of this website, we use your Personal Data to book and deliver service to repair your appliances, and to provide customer service and support by phone.

Sharing of your Personal Data

We take your privacy seriously and will not share your Personal Data with others (unless required by law or urgent safety concerns), except as necessary with third parties who provide services or functions on our behalf and who require the information to provide those specific services or functions.

Announcements of giveaway prizewinners in our newsletter are made in the format of first name or nickname, last initial if a last name is provided on newsletter signup, and city of residence (e.g., “John D. in Burnaby”); no other information will be shared.

Reasonable and current security measures are in place to protect your information from theft or exposure.
