GC Paid Media respects your privacy. This policy explains how we collect, use and disclose personal information when you visit gcpaidmedia.com, contact us, request an audit or consultation, or book a meeting.

It covers our website and business enquiries. Where we handle personal information on behalf of a client as part of an advertising engagement, the relevant client agreement and the client’s own privacy notices also apply.

1. Information we collect

Information you share with us. When you complete a form, contact us or book a meeting, you may provide your name, email address, business website, request type, estimated advertising spend, how you heard about us, and details about your business or marketing needs. A booking may also include your availability and other meeting details.

Information collected through website tools. Our website and its service providers may collect technical and usage information, such as your IP address, browser and device information, referring pages, pages visited, interactions and timestamps. Cookies and similar technologies may be used for measurement, site operation and spam prevention.

Please avoid including sensitive personal information, account passwords or customer records in website enquiry forms.

2. How we use information

  • Respond to your enquiries, discuss your needs and prepare proposals or audits.
  • Arrange consultations and provide services you request.
  • Operate, maintain and improve our website and understand how visitors use it.
  • Detect spam, prevent misuse and protect the website and our communications.
  • Maintain business records and meet applicable legal obligations.

Where consent is required, we seek it for the relevant purpose. If we want to use your information for a materially different purpose, we will provide notice and obtain any consent required by law.

3. Cookies, analytics and booking tools

The website uses Google measurement tools, Jetpack statistics provided by Automattic, and CleanTalk spam protection. Google Calendar is used for meeting bookings. Depending on how you interact with the site, these providers may receive technical information or the information needed to deliver their service.

You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect website features. Google also provides an Analytics opt-out browser add-on for supported browsers. Browser settings and provider controls apply to the technologies they support.

4. When we disclose information

We may disclose information to service providers that help us operate our website and business, including hosting, communications, analytics, security and scheduling providers. We limit disclosures to what is needed for the relevant purpose and use appropriate contractual or other safeguards where required.

We may also disclose information with your consent, where required or permitted by law, or where necessary to protect legal rights and the security of our business and website.

5. Processing outside Canada

Some service providers may process or store information outside Canada. Information processed in another country may be subject to that country’s laws and lawful access by its authorities.

6. Retention and security

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably needed for the purposes described in this policy, including providing requested services, maintaining appropriate business records and meeting legal requirements. The period depends on the information and our relationship with you.

We use reasonable administrative, technical and organisational safeguards appropriate to the information. No method of internet transmission or electronic storage is completely secure.

7. Your choices and privacy rights

Subject to applicable law, you may request access to the personal information we hold about you, ask us to correct it, request deletion where available, or withdraw consent for a use that relies on consent. Legal or contractual requirements may limit what we can delete or stop processing.

To make a request or raise a privacy concern, use the contact details below. We may need to verify your identity before responding, and we will explain any applicable limitations. Please provide only the information needed to describe your request.

8. Other websites and policy updates

Our website may link to external websites or services. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies.

We may update this policy to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. The latest version will appear on this page with an updated date.
