Last updated: October 29, 2026
ACFOR Inc. ("ACFOR", "we", "us") respects your privacy. This policy explains what personal information we collect through acfor.ca, why we collect it, and the choices you have. We handle personal information in accordance with the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and, where it applies, Quebec's Act respecting the protection of personal information in the private sector.
What we collect
- Contact form: your name, email address, phone number (optional), the type of inquiry and your message.
- Job applications: the information you choose to send us by email, such as your résumé, work history, certifications and contact details.
- Emails you send us directly, including their content and your email address.
- Website usage: anonymous, aggregated statistics such as pages viewed, referring site, country, browser and device type. We do not use this information to identify you.
Why we use it
- To respond to your questions and provide the services you ask about.
- To assess job applications and contact candidates.
- To understand how the website is used so we can improve it.
We do not sell, rent or trade your personal information, and we do not use it for advertising.
Consent
By submitting the contact form or emailing us, you consent to our use of your information for the purpose you contacted us about. You may withdraw your consent at any time by writing to admin@acfor.ca, subject to legal or contractual restrictions.
Service providers
We rely on a small number of service providers to run the website. They process information on our behalf and may store it outside Canada, including in the United States, where it may be subject to the laws of that country.
- Formspree: receives contact form submissions and forwards them to us.
- Vercel: hosts the website and provides privacy-friendly, cookie-free visitor statistics.
- Cloudflare: provides privacy-friendly, cookie-free visitor statistics.
- Google Maps: the maps on our About and Contact pages are loaded from Google, which may set its own cookies when you view them. See Google's privacy policy for details.
Cookies
The ACFOR website does not use advertising or tracking cookies, and our analytics do not use cookies. Third-party content embedded on the site, such as Google Maps, may set cookies under that provider's own policy. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings.
How long we keep it
We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purpose it was collected, or as required by law. Inquiries are kept while we are working with you and for a reasonable period afterwards. Applications from candidates who are not hired are deleted within 12 months unless you ask us to keep your file for future openings.
How we protect it
Access to personal information is limited to ACFOR staff who need it for their work. The website is served over an encrypted (HTTPS) connection, and we use reputable providers with appropriate security safeguards.
Your rights
You may ask to see the personal information we hold about you, have it corrected, or have it deleted. We will respond within 30 days. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may contact the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada (priv.gc.ca) or, if you live in Quebec, the Commission d'accès à l'information du Québec (cai.gouv.qc.ca).
