Privacy Policy

Last Updated: August 4, 2025

​

GustoCat Creative ("we", "us", or "our") is an Alberta-based marketing and design company. We are committed to protecting the privacy of your personal information. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and disclose personal information in compliance with Alberta's Personal Information Protection Act ("PIPA") and other applicable Canadian privacy legislation.

​

1. What is Personal Information?

Under PIPA, "personal information" means information about an identifiable individual. This can include, but is not limited to, your name, home address, email address, phone number, and any other information you provide to us that identifies you as an individual.

​

2. Collection of Your Personal Information

We collect personal information that is necessary for us to provide our services and to operate our website. We will only collect personal information by fair and lawful means, and we will inform you of the purpose for which the information is being collected at or before the time of collection.

We may collect your personal information in the following ways:

  • When you contact us: If you contact us through our website, by email, or by phone, we may collect your name, email address, phone number, and any other information you provide to us to respond to your inquiry.

  • When you subscribe to our newsletter: If you choose to subscribe to our mailing list, we will collect your email address to send you marketing communications and updates.

  • Through our website: We may automatically collect non-personal information about your visit to our website, such as your IP address, browser type, and pages visited. This information is used for website analytics, to improve user experience, and for security purposes. We use cookies and similar technologies to collect this data. You can control how your browser handles cookies.
     

3. Use of Your Personal Information

We use your personal information for the following purposes:

  • To provide and manage the services you have requested from us.

  • To communicate with you and respond to your inquiries.

  • To send you our newsletter and other marketing materials, but only if you have provided your consent.

  • To improve our website and marketing efforts by analyzing user behaviour.

  • To comply with our legal obligations.
     

4. Disclosure of Your Personal Information

GustoCat Creative will not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. We may disclose your personal information in the following limited circumstances:

  • With your consent: We will only share your information with third parties if we have your explicit consent to do so.

  • To service providers: We may use third-party service providers (e.g., email marketing platforms, website hosting companies) to assist us in operating our business. These service providers are contractually obligated to keep your information secure and confidential and are only permitted to use it for the purposes for which it was provided.

  • As required by law: We may be required to disclose your personal information to comply with a court order, subpoena, or other legal process.
     

5. Consent

We will seek your consent for the collection, use, or disclosure of your personal information, except where otherwise permitted or required by law. Your consent can be express (e.g., by checking a box to subscribe to our newsletter) or implied (e.g., when you provide your contact information to us so we can respond to an inquiry). You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time, subject to legal or contractual restrictions, by contacting us in writing.
 

6. Data Security

We take reasonable steps to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. We use a combination of physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to ensure your information is protected. However, no method of data transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your information.
 

7. Your Rights and Choices

Under PIPA, you have the right to:

  • Access: Request access to the personal information we hold about you.

  • Correction: Request the correction of any inaccurate or incomplete personal information we hold about you.

  • Withdraw consent: Withdraw your consent to the collection, use, or disclosure of your personal information at any time.

8. Changes to this Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. We will post the updated policy on our website with the revised "Last Updated" date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
