Who We Are
Next Step Technology Solutions Provider LTD. (“NSTSP,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is committed to protecting the privacy and security of the personal information we collect, use, and disclose. As an Alberta-based company, we are subject to Alberta’s Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA) and, where applicable, Canada’s Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA).
This Privacy Policy describes how we handle personal information collected through our website, https://www.nextsteptsp.com (the “Site”), and through other interactions with you.
Information We Collect
We collect personal information that you provide directly and information collected automatically when you use our Site:
- Information you provide: your name, business name, email address, phone number, and any details you include when you submit a contact or assessment-request form, download a resource, or subscribe to our communications.
- Information collected automatically: your IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, time on site, and referring source. This is collected through cookies and analytics tools (see “Cookies and Analytics” below).
- Our Site is intended for business audiences, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
How We Use Your Information
We use the personal information we collect for the following purposes:
- To respond to your inquiries and requests (e.g., “Book Your Free Technology Assessment”).
- To provide the services or resources you request (e.g., to deliver a downloadable guide).
- To send you communications such as newsletters, technology tips, or information about our services that may be of interest, where you have consented to receive them.
- To analyze and improve the performance, usability, and content of our Site.
- To comply with legal and regulatory requirements.
Cookies and Analytics
Our Site uses cookies and similar technologies to function properly and to understand how visitors use the Site. The main categories are:
- Essential cookies: required for the Site to operate. These contain no marketing data.
- Analytics cookies: we use website analytics (such as Google Analytics) to understand how visitors find and use our Site — for example, which pages are viewed and how visitors arrive. This helps us improve the Site. Our analytics provider processes this data on our behalf.
- Marketing and attribution cookies: where we run outbound or advertising campaigns, we may use cookies or URL parameters to understand which campaigns lead visitors to our Site.
You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Disabling some cookies may affect how the Site functions. Where required, we will present a cookie-consent notice and honour your choices.
Consent
By providing us with your personal information, such as by submitting a form on our Site, you consent to our collection, use, and disclosure of that information as described in this Privacy Policy.
You may withdraw your consent at any time, subject to legal or contractual restrictions and reasonable notice, by contacting us at info@nextsteptsp.com. You may also unsubscribe from our marketing emails at any time by clicking the “Unsubscribe” link in the footer of every email.
How We Share Your Information
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties.
We may share your information with trusted third-party service providers who perform services on our behalf (for example, email marketing platforms, our CRM system, and website analytics providers). These providers are contractually obligated to use your information only to provide services to us and to protect it with appropriate security measures. Some of these providers may store or process data outside Alberta or Canada; where that occurs, the information remains subject to safeguards consistent with this policy.
We may also disclose information if required by law, such as to comply with a subpoena or other legal process.
Data Retention
We keep personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy, or as required by law. For example, we retain inquiry and client information for as long as we maintain a business relationship and for a reasonable period afterward, after which we securely dispose of it.
Data Security
As a technology solutions provider, we take the security of your information seriously. We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect the personal information in our custody and control from unauthorized access, use, modification, and disclosure. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, but we work to protect your information using practices appropriate to its sensitivity.
Links to Other Websites
Our Site may contain links to third-party websites (for example, in our blog posts). This Privacy Policy does not apply to those third-party sites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of other websites, and we encourage you to read their privacy policies.
Your Rights (Access and Correction)
Under PIPA, you have the right to request access to and correction of the personal information we hold about you. To make such a request, please contact us in writing at the email or address below. We will respond within the timeframe required by law.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. We will post the revised policy on this Site and update the “Last Updated” date at the top.
