At Gestiotech ("we", "us", "our"), we know how important maintaining privacy is, which is why it is one of our priorities.
Therefore, in order to be as transparent as possible, we have developed this privacy policy ("Policy"). In it, you'll find our practices regarding the collection, use, retention and processing of your personal information when you use our sites, products and services. It also sets out your rights with regard to our possession of your information. You can find all this in the following sections of the policy:
1. Collection of information
2. Sharing your data
3. Consent for promotional communications
4. Your rights
5. Retention and security of your information
6. Changes and updates
We use the term "Sites" to refer to all websites operated by Gestiotech, their subdomains and content.
If you do not agree with any part of this Policy, please do not use or access our Sites, Products or Services.
The notion of "Services" is used to refer to the services we offer, such as: Collection of technical and financial information related to SR&ED meeting the criteria of the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA); Preparation of forms T-661 and RD-222, with a view to claiming the investment tax credit; Drafting of complete scientific documentation to support the investment tax credit claim for SR&ED; Preparation of forms for a CDAE tax credit claim; Supported support throughout the process until the tax credit is finally obtained
The information we collect about you depends entirely on your interactions with us. It may be useful for you to know that at any time you may decide not to provide the information requested. However, if you do so, you may not have access to certain Products, Services or information that you may desire.
We may collect some basic information about you when you request a quote, purchase our Products, request our Services or make other specific requests. In addition, we keep a history of your interactions and transactions with us.
Here is the list of information that may be collected about you:
We will only share your data for the purposes listed below and we assure you that we will not sell, provide or trade your information for profit.
In the event that Gestiotech becomes involved in an asset or merger transaction, bankruptcy proceeding, reorganization, or other action that results in a change in the disposition of control of the business, your information may be shared with those involved in the transaction. Obviously, in such situations, we will take steps, to the extent possible, to share as little personal information as possible while ensuring the utmost security and confidentiality.
We may also disclose your personal information in a few other special cases, such as in a situation where you authorize us to do so, where it is permitted by law, where it is an emergency or for any other situation where we are legally required to act.
We will not send you any promotional e-mail unless we receive your consent to do so. This consent may be express or implied. Express consent is when you agree verbally or in writing to receive these e-mails. In a situation where both parties are in a business relationship or one has purchased products from the other, it is possible for the company that sold its product to assume tacit (implied) consent and may, in that case, send promotional communications. At any time, you can unsubscribe from our promotional mailing list by clicking on the link at the bottom of each of our e-mails or by sending us an e-mail at the address below [Your reply]. We will process your request within a reasonable timeframe, i.e. within 10 days. Please note, however, that unsubscribing from our mailing list in no way prevents us from contacting you for non-marketing purposes.
You have certain rights regarding the personal information we hold about you. Please note that all requests will be processed within 30 days, free of charge.

Unless you ask us to delete or destroy your personal information, we keep it only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected. We may also retain some information for various legal reasons. Such information will be treated in accordance with this policy, as well as any applicable laws.
To ensure that your personal information is effectively protected, we have established physical, technical and computer security procedures to prevent any incident relating to the security of your personal information. We regularly review our security measures and limit access to information to those employees who need it to perform the services requested. In addition, our employees and contractors are all under strict confidentiality obligations.
Certain information that is no longer required for the performance of our duties, but is nonetheless useful for improving our products or services, may be anonymized so that it can no longer identify you.
