Privacy Policy
StonePoint is committed to respecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect through our websites, how we use it, and the choices available to you regarding your data.
Who We Are
This Privacy Policy applies to StonePoint and the digital properties we operate under the following domains:
- www.stonepoint.com
- www.stonepoint.ca
- www.stonepointleadership.com
These domains provide a unified service experience and are governed by the protocols outlined in this policy.
Information We Collect
Information You Provide
When you submit a form or inquiry — including your name, email, phone number, and message.
Technical Information
Automatic browser data shared during your visit — including IP address, device identifiers, and navigation patterns.
Cookies
Used to enhance site functionality and remember preferences. These can be managed via your browser settings at any time.
Comments
When visitors leave comments we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor's IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection.
Media
If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.
Forms & Contact Requests
If you submit a contact or booking inquiry, we collect the information you include so we can respond and provide services. We use this information to communicate with you and to manage our client and partner relationships.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies for your convenience. These cookies will last for one year.
If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
When you log in, we will set up several cookies to save your login information and screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select "Remember Me", your login will persist for two weeks.
Embedded Content From Other Websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content such as videos, images, and articles. Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website directly. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content.
Data Stewardship
We share limited information with service providers only as essential to operate our platform — such as hosting, security monitoring, and communication tools. All partners are required to maintain strict confidentiality standards. If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically.
If you submit a form or inquiry, we retain that information for as long as needed to respond and for our administrative records. Retention may vary depending on the nature of the request and any applicable legal or security requirements.
For users who register on our website, we store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username).
Your Rights & Governance
You hold the right to request an exported file of the personal data we maintain about you. You may also request the erasure of your data, excluding information we are legally obliged to retain for administrative or security purposes. You may also request corrections to inaccurate personal information.
To initiate a privacy inquiry, please contact our administration team.
Where Your Data Is Sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service. Your information may be processed or stored in locations where our service providers operate. Privacy laws in those jurisdictions may differ from those in your province or country.
Security
We take reasonable steps to protect personal information against loss, misuse, and unauthorized access. No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Children's Privacy
Our website is not intended to collect personal information from children without the involvement and consent of a parent or guardian. If you believe a child has provided personal information through this site without appropriate consent, please contact us and we will address it promptly.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top will always reflect the most recent version. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
Honouring the foundations of our past.
StonePoint respectfully acknowledges that our work takes place across Alberta and Canada, on the traditional territories of many First Nations, Métis, and Inuit peoples. We recognize lands within Treaty 6, Treaty 7, and Treaty 8 territories, and the homeland of the Métis Nation of Alberta. We are committed to working in a way that honours community, history, and ongoing responsibilities.
