1. Who We Are
Anchored Logic ("we," "our," or "us") is an AI strategy and operations consulting practice owned and operated by Emily Baack, based in Ontario, Canada. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect personal information in connection with our website at anchoredlogic.com and our consulting services.
We are committed to handling personal information responsibly and in compliance with Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and applicable provincial privacy legislation.
2. What Information We Collect
We collect personal information only as needed to deliver our services and respond to inquiries. This may include:
- Contact information (name, email address, phone number, business name) provided through our intake form or direct email
- Information you share during discovery calls, assessments, or project engagements
- Business context needed to deliver consulting work (workflow details, system access credentials shared under mutual agreement, operational data)
- Technical data collected passively through our website (IP address, browser type, pages visited) via standard server logs or analytics tools
We do not collect sensitive personal information (health data, financial account numbers, government identifiers) unless required by a specific engagement and with your explicit consent.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Respond to inquiries and schedule consultations
- Deliver agreed consulting services and deliverables
- Send project-related communications
- Issue invoices and process payments
- Improve our website and service offerings
- Meet any legal or regulatory obligations
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We do not use your information for automated decision-making or profiling.
4. Disclosure of Information
We may share personal information in limited circumstances:
- Service providers: Third-party tools we use to operate our business (scheduling, invoicing, communication) may process your data on our behalf. These providers are required to protect your information consistent with this policy.
- Legal requirements: We may disclose information if required by law, court order, or regulatory authority.
- Business transfers: In the unlikely event of a sale or merger, personal information may be transferred as a business asset, subject to equivalent privacy protections.
We will not disclose your information to third parties for their own marketing purposes.
5. Third-Party Tools
Our website and operations make use of the following third-party tools that may collect or process data:
- Calendly — scheduling (governed by Calendly's privacy policy)
- Tally — contact and intake forms (governed by Tally's privacy policy)
- Google Fonts / Google APIs — font delivery (may log requests to Google servers)
We encourage you to review the privacy policies of these tools if you have questions about how they handle your data.
6. Data Storage and Security
Personal information is stored on secure systems with access limited to those who need it to carry out our work. We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards to protect against unauthorized access, disclosure, or loss.
No transmission over the internet is completely secure. While we take reasonable steps to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Data may be stored on servers located in Canada or the United States. Where data is transferred outside Canada, we take steps to ensure it receives comparable protection.
7. Retention
We retain personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including to meet legal, accounting, or reporting obligations. Client project records are generally retained for seven years following engagement close. Website inquiry data is retained for up to two years.
8. Your Rights
Under PIPEDA, you have the right to:
- Request access to the personal information we hold about you
- Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information
- Withdraw consent for uses not required by law or contract (with the understanding that withdrawal may limit our ability to deliver services)
- File a complaint with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada if you believe your privacy rights have been violated
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at emily@anchoredlogic.com. We will respond within 30 days.
9. Cookies and Tracking
Our website may use cookies or similar technologies for basic functionality and analytics. We do not use advertising cookies or behavioral tracking networks. You can configure your browser to refuse cookies, though some site functionality may be affected.
