***

## 3. Purposes for collection and use

We use personal information for purposes that include:

* Providing, operating, securing, and improving the Services;
* Creating and managing accounts; authenticating users;
* Processing payments and fulfilling subscriptions or licenses;
* Customer support and responding to inquiries;
* Sending transactional messages (receipts, security notices, legal updates);
* **Marketing**, where permitted—such as product updates or newsletters if you opt in or where soft opt-in applies under law;
* Analytics and product analytics to understand usage and improve performance and UX;
* Detecting and preventing fraud, abuse, and security incidents;
* Complying with legal obligations and enforcing our terms;
* Aggregating or de-identifying information so it no longer identifies you.

We limit collection to what is reasonable for these purposes.

***

## 4. Legal bases (where GDPR applies)

Where GDPR applies, we rely on one or more of: **performance of a contract**; **legitimate interests** (such as securing our Services and understanding aggregate usage), balanced against your rights; **consent** (where required—for example, certain marketing or non-essential cookies); and **legal obligation**.

***

## 5. Disclosure and subprocessors

We may disclose personal information:

* **Service providers** who assist us under contractual safeguards—including **Google LLC** (Google Analytics), **Meta Platforms, Inc.** (advertising and analytics pixels), **Shopify Inc.** (commerce platform, Shopify Payments, storefront hosting, analytics, and related services), **Intercom, Inc.** (customer messaging and support), **GitBook** (documentation hosting), **Vercel** (API infrastructure used for marketing forms), and other providers we use for hosting, email delivery, payment processing, analytics, customer support tooling, and error monitoring;
* **Shopify** and ecosystem partners, as needed to deliver integrations you enable;
* **Professional advisers** (lawyers, accountants) under confidentiality;
* **Authorities** when required by law or to protect rights, safety, and security; and
* **Business transfers** in a merger, financing, or sale of assets, subject to appropriate protections.

We do not sell your personal information as a standalone commercial asset. We may use advertising or analytics tools that process personal data as described in their policies; see **Section 9 (Cookies)**.

A current list of material subprocessors is available **on request**—email **<hello@brickspacelab.com>** with “Subprocessors list” in the subject. We may publish an updated list on our website from time to time.

***

## 6. International transfers

We may process or store information in **Canada**, the **United States**, or other countries where we or our service providers operate. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards (for example, contractual clauses) for cross-border transfers.

***

## 7. Retention

We retain personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes above, including legal, accounting, and dispute-resolution needs. Factors include:

* the duration of your account or contract;
* statutory limitation periods;
* security and fraud monitoring; and
* anonymization where feasible.

When retention ends, we delete or de-identify information subject to limited exceptions (for example, backups until overwritten).

***

## 8. Security

We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures appropriate to the sensitivity of the information we handle. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security.

***

## 9. Cookies and similar technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies for essential functionality, preferences, analytics, and (if enabled) marketing. For details and choices, see our [**Cookie and consent guidance**](/legal/cookie-consent.md).

Where PIPEDA or other law requires consent for non-essential cookies, we obtain consent through our banner or settings before loading those technologies.

***

## 10. Your rights (access, correction, deletion)

**Under PIPEDA**, you have the right to request access to your personal information and to challenge its accuracy and completeness. You may request correction where information is inaccurate.

You may also ask us to **delete** personal information we hold about you, subject to legal exceptions (for example, records we must retain for tax or dispute purposes).

**Requests:** Email **<hello@brickspacelab.com>** with “Privacy request” in the subject. We may verify your identity before responding. We will respond within **30 days** where PIPEDA applies, unless an extension is permitted.

**Where GDPR applies**, you may also have rights to object, restrict processing, data portability, and to withdraw consent where processing is consent-based. You may lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.

***

## 11. Children

The Services are not directed to children under the age of majority. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe we have, contact us and we will delete it.

***

## 12. Automated decision-making

We do not use automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects solely based on automated processing.

***

## 13. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the revised version on the Site and update the “Last updated” date. For material changes, we may provide additional notice (for example, email or in-product notice).
