01 — SCOPE OF THIS POLICY
This policy applies solely to the theentity.ca site.
Each brand in the ecosystem processes its own data, under its own responsibility and according to its own privacy policy:
No visitor data is pooled between theentity.ca and the brands' sites.
02 — OFFICER RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PROTECTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
In accordance with Law 25, the person responsible for the protection of personal information within The Entity Nexus Inc. is:
03 — INFORMATION PROCESSED
The site has no user accounts, no forms and no comment section. Three categories of information may be processed:
3.1 — TECHNICAL LOGS
Like any website, theentity.ca is served by a host that generates technical logs: IP address, request timestamps, pages viewed, browser type. These logs serve security and the proper functioning of the site, and nothing else.
3.2 — ANALYTICS
If analytics is active, it is aggregated and privacy-respecting: no tracking cookies, no individual identifiers, no resale of data, no advertising. It shows trends (page views, general referral sources), never individuals. It is enabled only with your consent.
3.3 — CORRESPONDENCE
If you write to us at jarod@theentity.ca, we process the information you choose to send us (email address, message content), solely to answer your request and follow up on it.
04 — PURPOSES AND LEGAL BASES
- Site security and operation — technical logs. Basis: legitimate interest and security obligations.
- Understanding traffic — aggregated analytics. Basis: your consent, withdrawable at any time.
- Responding to your communications — email correspondence. Basis: your voluntary approach (consent).
No information is processed for advertising, commercial profiling, resale or the training of artificial intelligence models. No decision producing legal effects concerning you is made by automated means.
05 — COOKIES
The site uses no advertising or tracking cookies. It sets no identifier allowing your browsing to be followed from one site to another.
Only cookies strictly necessary for operation and for recording your choice are set without consent. Two optional categories — analytics and display preferences — are disabled by default and are enabled only after your free, informed and specific consent, given category by category in the consent banner.
WITHDRAWING CONSENT
Withdrawing is as easy as giving: the “Manage my cookies” link in the site footer reopens the preferences panel at any time. Your choice is stored locally on your device for 12 months, then requested again. The Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal is honoured automatically and is treated as a refusal.
