Jonathan Bellot Consulting ("we", "us", or "our") operates jonathanbellot.com. Our standard for data privacy matches our standard for advisory: rigour, clarity, and strict confidentiality. This policy governs the collection, use, and disclosure of personal information in accordance with Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and applicable provincial privacy legislation.
Jonathan Bellot is the designated privacy officer responsible for the personal information under our control and for compliance with this policy. Questions or concerns may be directed to info@jonathanbellot.com.
We collect personal information only for the following purposes, which are identified before or at the time of collection:
We collect only the information necessary to fulfil the purposes above. This includes:
We do not use tracking cookies or collect information passively, beyond standard server access logs maintained by our hosting provider (Netlify).
By submitting information through the contact form or Insights subscription, you consent to the collection, use, and disclosure of your personal information as described in this policy. You may withdraw consent at any time by contacting us at info@jonathanbellot.com, subject to legal or contractual restrictions and reasonable notice. Withdrawal of consent may affect our ability to provide services to you.
Personal information is used only for the purposes for which it was collected. We do not sell, trade, or otherwise disclose your personal information to third parties, except to service providers who assist us in operating this website or communicating with you (specifically, Netlify for form processing and our email provider for Insights notifications). These providers are bound by confidentiality obligations and are not permitted to use your information for any other purpose.
We retain personal information only as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes identified above or as required by law. Contact form submissions are retained for the duration of any resulting business relationship and for a reasonable period thereafter. Insights subscriber information is retained until you unsubscribe.
Our hosting provider (Netlify) processes and stores data on servers located in the United States. By submitting information through this website, you acknowledge that your information may be transferred to and stored in a jurisdiction outside Canada. We take reasonable contractual steps to ensure that your information remains protected in accordance with Canadian privacy standards.
We rely on the information you provide to be accurate and complete. If you become aware that information we hold is inaccurate or out of date, please contact us so that we may correct it.
We use reasonable physical, administrative, and technical safeguards to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use, or modification. Form submissions are transmitted via encrypted HTTPS connections. No method of electronic transmission is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
This policy is available on our website and will be provided to any individual upon request. We will notify you of material changes to this policy by updating the date at the top of this page.
You have the right to request access to the personal information we hold about you, to know how it has been used and to whom it has been disclosed, and to request that inaccurate information be corrected. To make such a request, contact us at info@jonathanbellot.com. We will respond within 30 days. In certain circumstances we may be unable to provide access, in which case we will advise you of the reason.
In the event of a breach of security safeguards involving your personal information that creates a real risk of significant harm, we will notify you and the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada as required under PIPEDA.
If you believe we have not complied with this policy or your rights under PIPEDA, you may contact our privacy officer at info@jonathanbellot.com. If your concern is not resolved to your satisfaction, you may also contact the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada at www.priv.gc.ca.
