Privacy Policy
Transparency in how we collect, use and protect your information.
1. Introduction
Governor Technologies Inc. ("Governor," "we," "us" or "our") is a Canadian company. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose and safeguard personal information when you visit this website (governortechnologies.com, the "Site") or contact us through it.
This policy covers the Site and the inquiries you send us through it. Governor AI and our other products are delivered to clients under separate written agreements; the handling of information inside a client system is governed by that client's agreement, not by this policy.
Our commitment: we collect only what we need to respond to you, we do not sell personal information, and we handle personal information in our custody in accordance with Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and other applicable Canadian privacy law.
2. Information We Collect
2.1 Information you provide
When you submit the briefing request form or write to us by email, you may provide:
- Contact details: your name, title or position, organization, email address and, optionally, a telephone number
- Inquiry details: your sector, your primary interest and the message you write to us
- Correspondence: the content of emails you exchange with us afterwards
2.2 Information collected automatically
The Site is a static website. It sets no cookies of its own and contains no analytics, advertising or tracking scripts. Our hosting provider may record standard server logs (such as IP address, browser type, requested page and time of access) in order to operate and secure the service, under its own terms.
2.3 Information we do not collect
The Site does not ask for payment details, account credentials or sensitive personal information. Please do not include such information in a form submission or email.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use the information you provide for the following purposes:
- Responding to you: reviewing and replying to your briefing request or inquiry and arranging any briefing or meeting you ask for
- Evaluating an engagement: understanding your systems, sector and objectives so we can tell you whether and how we can help
- Record keeping: keeping a record of our correspondence with you
- Security and legal compliance: protecting the Site and our systems, and complying with applicable law
We do not use your information for automated decision-making about you, and we do not use it to train AI models.
4. Where Information Is Stored and How It Is Protected
4.1 Data residency
Governor Technologies Inc. is based in Canada. Submissions made through the Site are received through our website hosting and form-delivery provider, whose infrastructure may be located outside Canada. Correspondence and records that we hold directly are stored in Canada where practicable. Personal information in our custody remains subject to Canadian privacy law regardless of where a service provider processes it, and we require our providers to protect it with safeguards consistent with this policy.
4.2 Security measures
We protect personal information with safeguards appropriate to its sensitivity, including transport encryption for the Site and for email where supported, access limited to the people who need it to respond to you, and reasonable administrative and technical controls over the systems we use.
4.3 Retention
We keep inquiry records for as long as needed to respond to you and to maintain a record of our correspondence, and for any longer period required by law. When information is no longer needed, we delete it or render it anonymous.
5. Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell, rent or trade personal information. We share it only in the following circumstances:
5.1 Service providers
We use a website hosting and form-delivery provider and an email service to operate the Site and to receive and answer your messages. These providers process information on our behalf and are not permitted to use it for their own purposes beyond providing their service.
5.2 Legal requirements
We may disclose information where required by law, a court order or a lawful request by a public authority, or where necessary to protect our rights, our systems or the safety of any person.
5.3 Business transfers
If Governor Technologies Inc. is involved in a merger, acquisition or sale of assets, personal information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to the same protections.
5.4 With your consent
We share information in any other case only with your consent.
6. Your Rights
Subject to applicable law, you have the right to:
- Access the personal information we hold about you
- Correct information that is inaccurate or incomplete
- Withdraw consent to our continued use of your information, subject to legal or contractual restrictions
- Request deletion of your information where we have no continuing need or legal obligation to keep it
- Make a complaint to us, and to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada if you are not satisfied with our response
To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details in Section 10. We will respond within the time required by applicable law and may need to verify your identity before acting on a request.
7. International Visitors
The Site is operated from Canada. If you visit it or contact us from outside Canada, your information will be handled as described in this policy and may be processed in Canada and in the jurisdictions where our service providers operate.
8. Cookies and Tracking
The Site does not set cookies of its own and does not use analytics, advertising or tracking technologies. If this changes, we will update this policy before doing so.
9. Children
The Site is intended for organizations and professionals. It is not directed at individuals under 18, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time to reflect changes in the Site, our practices or applicable law. We will post the updated version on the Site and change the "Last updated" date at the top. Material changes will be highlighted on this page.
