Privacy Policy
We value our relationship with you and are committed to the protection of your personal information.
‘Personal Information’, as used in this Privacy Policy, means information about an identifiable individual.
We collect Personal Information from you, including information about your:
– name; and
– contact information, including phone number and email.
We may collect your email address, but only if you voluntarily provide it to us. This may occur, for
example, if you sign up to receive an email newsletter or fill in the “Work with Shawn” contact form on
the Site. We will use your email address for the purposes for which you have provided it to us, and also
from time to time to send you emails regarding the Site or other notices or services that we believe may
be of interest to you. You may opt out of such email communications at any time by clicking the
“unsubscribe” link in the email.
We collect your Personal Information in order to:
– stay in contact with you and send regular emails; and
– notify you of any new and upcoming services.
If we plan to use Personal Information we have collected for a purpose not previously identified, we will
identify and document this purpose before such use and obtain your consent where required.
Personal Information will only be collected, used, or disclosed with the knowledge and consent of the
individual. An individual can withdraw consent at any time, subject to legal or contractual restrictions
and reasonable notice. If you have submitted Personal Information and later wish to withdraw your
consent to its retention, use or disclosure, please contact us as indicated below. Please note that
without your consent, we may not be able to provide certain services to you.

We will limit the amount and type of Personal Information collected to that which is necessary for our
identified purposes, and we will only collect Personal Information by fair and lawful means.
Limiting Use, Disclosure, and Retention
Personal Information will not be used or disclosed for purposes other than those for which it was
collected, except with the consent of the individual or as required by law. We shall retain Personal
Information only as long as necessary for the fulfillment of the purposes for which it was collected.
We keep your information safe by:
– limiting the amount of Personal Information that we collect to strictly necessary only;
– using SSL or other secure connection technologies when receiving or sending Personal
Information beyond internal networks; and
– maintaining up-to-date software and safeguards.
Although we have enacted layered security measures, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of
your Personal Information due to the fact that no security measures are ever 100% secure or error-free.
Please note that we employ methods to protect Personal Information transmitted over the internet,
however, your use of the internet and electronic mail is at your own risk.
Contact
You have the right to ask for a copy of any Personal Information we hold about you, and to ask for it to
be corrected if you think it is wrong. We will respond to an individual’s written request within a
reasonable time. If you would like to ask for a copy of your information or to have it corrected, please

CASL Compliance
We are committed to reducing the harmful effects of spam and related threats to electronic commerce.
