Personal Information is collected only to fulfill the purposes identified, for example to respond to a request for information requested on the Contact page of our website or to prepare client work as so engaged.

We retain Personal Information for only as long as necessary to serve that purpose. Admin Slayer Services Inc. does not sell, rent or otherwise provide any personally identifiable information about you to a third party, nor do we share or solicit the information captured in any way.

Information Collected Automatically

Like other online companies, we receive technical information when you use our Services. We use these technologies to analyze how people use our Services, to improve how our Site functions, and to serve you with advertisements that may interest you.

We and our third party service providers, including analytics and third party content providers, may automatically collect certain information from you whenever you access or interact with the Service. This information may include, among other information, the browser and operating system you are using, the URL or advertisement that referred you to the Service, the search terms you entered into a search engine that led you to the Service, areas within the Service that you visited, which links you clicked on, which pages or content you viewed and for how long, other similar information and statistics about your interactions, such as content response times, download errors and length of visits to certain pages and other information commonly shared when browsers communicate with websites. We may combine this automatically collected log information with other information we collect about you. We do this to improve services we offer you, and to improve marketing, analytics, and site functionality.

The information we collect also includes the Internet Protocol (“IP”) address or other unique device identifier (“Device Identifier”) for any device (computer, mobile phone, tablet, etc.) used to access the Service. A Device Identifier is a number that is automatically assigned or connected to the device you use to access the Service, and our servers identify your device by its Device Identifier. Some mobile service providers may also provide us or our third party service providers with information regarding the physical location of the device used to access the Service.

Consent

Consent for the collection of personal information can be either express or implied. Express consent is either given verbally or in writing, e.g. when providing information on the Contact page on our website or opting in to our newsletter.

Special note with respect to the GDPR (Privacy legislation for the EU, effective May 28, 2018),

The GDPR has added additional control for EU citizens over their personal informations regardless of which country that information is used in, meaning all countries are required to abide by the GDPR when dealing with, or potentially dealing with personal information from an EU citizen. Under the GDPR, your Personal Information is also protected in the following ways:

  • Notification of sharing with a third party, in our case Mailchimp: Personal information provided by you during the opt-in process of signing up for our newsletter means that the information you provide is then supplied to Mailchimp, a third party. Through their own adherence to GDPR, your information is used for the sole purpose of mailing our newsletter to you. 

  • You have the ability to edit information shared with Mailchimp yourself, directly from a link on our newsletter 

  • As always, you have the ability to unsubscribe from the mailing list at any time using the unsubscribe button on the newsletter. 

  • If your personal information is used for any purpose other than our newsletter, separate consent will be obtained.  

  • You have the right to request that any of your Personal Information maintain by Admin Slayer Services Inc, or Mailchimp, be permanently and promptly deleted.

  • personnel training on Privacy and Security Policy and signed confidentiality agreements; and

Client Communication

As you may be aware, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) came into effect on May 25th, 2018. While this is a European Union regulation, it expands on the Canadian privacy legislation already in place. Compliance with all privacy regulations is key to respecting your privacy and ensuring the security of your data. 

Here are the highlights of the initiatives we’ve reviewed or updated in accordance to these new regulations:

  • We’ve updated our Privacy Policy to outline the changes required under the GDPR and our compliance therewith.

  • We’ve changed our newsletter sign-up process from single opt-in to double opt-in

  • We have assigned a Privacy Officer who can be reached at privacy@adminslayer.com with any concerns or requests.

  • We openly allow you to exercise your right to erasure if you wish to delete information we have about you through our Privacy Officer
