Privacy Policy

Effective date: July 1, 2026

Introduction

UglyDot is committed to protecting personal information in accordance with Canadian privacy law. This policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect personal information when you interact with our website, communicate with us, or use our services. UglyDot is a trade name of CommerciaTrade Canada Corporation, a Canadian corporation governed by the laws of Ontario and Canada.

Governing framework

This policy is governed primarily by Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA). Where relevant, we also have regard to internationally recognized privacy principles reflected in the EU and UK GDPR, though UglyDot is not established in the EU or UK.

Scope

This policy applies to personal information collected through our website, project inquiries, client communications, onboarding, service delivery, contracts, billing, and ongoing client relationships. It does not apply to third-party websites or services linked from our site.

What we collect

We collect only what's reasonably necessary for identified business purposes: names, contact details, business information, project details you provide, billing information, communications, and limited technical data such as IP address or browser type. We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors. Through our website, we typically collect only the information you voluntarily submit through our contact form, such as your name, email address, company, and message, along with limited technical information automatically collected by your browser.

How we use it

We use personal information to respond to inquiries, deliver our services, manage contracts and billing, maintain client relationships, communicate service-related information, and meet legal obligations. We don't use it for other purposes without your consent.

Consent

By providing personal information to us, you consent to its collection, use, and disclosure as described here. Consent may be express or implied depending on context. You can withdraw consent at any time, subject to legal or contractual limits and reasonable notice.

Disclosure

We don't sell personal information. We may share it with service providers, such as hosting, communications, and payment processing, or professional advisors, who need it to support our operations, or where required by law. Anyone we share it with is required to protect it to the same standard.

Cross-border processing

Personal information may be stored or processed outside Canada, including in the United States, the European Union, or the United Kingdom, depending on where our service providers operate. It remains subject to contractual safeguards, though foreign laws may differ and may permit access by local authorities.

Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the information we hold. No system can be guaranteed completely secure.

Retention

We keep personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes it was collected, or as required by law. After that, it's securely destroyed or anonymized.

Your rights

You can request access to your personal information or ask us to correct anything inaccurate, subject to legal limits and identity verification.

Cookies

We use cookies to support website functionality. See our Cookies Policy for details.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Changes take effect once posted here, with an updated effective date. Continued use of the website after that means you accept the update.
