This Privacy Policy describes how GrowthPath Savings collects and uses your personal information. We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your data responsibly. We operate within the jurisdiction of Canada and comply with all applicable privacy laws and regulations. Our goal is to provide transparent financial guidance while safeguarding your personal and financial information. If you have any questions about our privacy practices, we encourage you to contact us using the information provided at the end of this policy.
Information We Collect
We collect information in several ways to provide you with relevant savings and investment guidance. When you contact us through our contact form, we collect your name, email address, phone number, and any additional details you provide about your savings goals. We also automatically collect technical information about your browsing activity, including your IP address, browser type, device information, and pages visited. This helps us understand how you interact with our content and improve our services. We use cookies and similar technologies to enhance your browsing experience. Additionally, we may collect information about your preferences for content topics related to compound interest, savings strategies, and financial planning for Saskatoon families.
Legal Basis for Processing
We process your personal information based on several legal grounds. When you provide information directly through our contact form, we process it based on your explicit consent. We also process information based on our legitimate business interests in improving our services, understanding user needs, and providing personalized financial guidance. Technical and browsing data is collected and processed to optimize our website performance and user experience. We never process your information for purposes beyond what is outlined in this policy without obtaining your prior consent. All processing activities comply with Canadian privacy laws and regulations.
How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to provide you with personalized content and resources about compound interest, savings growth, and long-term financial strategies. Your contact information allows us to respond to your inquiries and provide relevant guidance tailored to families in Saskatoon. We analyze browsing patterns to improve our website functionality and ensure our content addresses your financial interests. We use technical data to maintain website security, prevent fraud, and troubleshoot technical issues. We never sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes. We may share information with service providers who assist us in operating our website, but only under strict confidentiality agreements.
Data Retention
We maintain specific retention periods for different types of information to balance your privacy with our operational needs. Contact form submissions and inquiry information are retained for up to 24 months following your last interaction with us, allowing us to maintain continuity in our service relationship. Analytics and browsing behavior data collected through cookies is retained for up to 14 months to help us track trends and improve our website over time. Server logs containing technical information are retained for up to 12 months to maintain security and troubleshoot issues. Email communications are archived for up to 18 months. Once the retention period expires, we securely delete or anonymize your information. If you request deletion of your data, we will comply within 30 days, except where we are legally required to retain information.

You have important rights regarding your personal information. You can request access to any personal data we hold about you at any time. You have the right to correct inaccurate or incomplete information and request that we update your records. You can request deletion of your personal information, subject to certain legal obligations we may have to retain it. You have the right to restrict how we process your data and to withdraw your consent at any time.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies to enhance your browsing experience and gather analytics about how you use our website. Cookies are small text files stored on your device that allow us to recognize you and remember your preferences. We use essential cookies to ensure our website functions properly and securely. We also use analytics cookies to understand user behavior, track which pages are most valuable, and identify areas for improvement. These cookies do not identify you personally but help us provide better content about savings strategies and financial planning. You can control cookie settings through your browser preferences. Disabling cookies may affect your browsing experience and our ability to personalize content for you. We do not use cookies for targeted advertising purposes.
Data Security
We implement comprehensive security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure. We use industry-standard encryption protocols, including HTTPS, to secure data transmitted between your device and our servers. Our website infrastructure includes firewalls and intrusion detection systems to monitor and prevent unauthorized access. We restrict access to personal information to authorized employees and service providers who need it to perform their duties. We conduct regular security assessments and updates to maintain the integrity of our systems. While we strive to protect your information with the highest standards, no security system is completely impenetrable. We encourage you to use strong passwords and protect your login credentials. If you believe your information has been compromised, please contact us immediately.
Third-Party Links and Services
Our website may contain links to third-party websites and services that are not operated by us. This Privacy Policy applies only to information we collect directly through our website and services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of external websites, and we encourage you to review their privacy policies before sharing any information. When you click on external links, you are leaving our website and entering a different online environment. We do not endorse or control the content, accuracy, or practices of third-party sites. If you have concerns about how a third-party website handles your information, please contact them directly. We are not liable for any damage or loss resulting from your interaction with external links or services.
