Conseil.dev

Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 19, 2026.

This Privacy Policy describes how conseil.dev ("we", "us", "our") collects, uses, shares, and protects your personal information when you visit our website, contact us, subscribe to our newsletter, download a lead magnet, book a discovery call, or engage us for a paid engagement.

conseil.dev is operated by conseil.dev, a sole proprietor based in Québec, Canada. We comply with the Act Respecting the Protection of Personal Information in the Private Sector (Québec Law 25 / LPRPSP), the federal Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), and the Canadian Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL) for our commercial communications.

If any part of this policy is unclear, or if you want to exercise any right described below, write to hello@conseil.dev.

1. Person in charge of personal information

In accordance with Québec Law 25, the person responsible for the protection of personal information at conseil.dev is:

conseil.dev conseil.dev Québec, Canada hello@conseil.dev

2. Personal information we collect

We collect only what we need to run our business. In practice, that is:

  • Contact information you submit directly — name, email address, phone number, company name, and anything you write to us through the contact form, the newsletter signup, a lead-magnet form, or email.
  • Booking information — when you book a call through Cal.com, we receive your name, email, the time you chose, and any notes you added. Cal.com stores this on our behalf.
  • Billing information (clients only) — for paid engagements, name, company, billing address, and tax numbers. Payments are processed by our payment provider; we do not store full card numbers.
  • Technical information — IP address, browser, device type, pages visited, referrer, and approximate location (city/region derived from IP). Collected automatically through our analytics and hosting providers (see §5).
  • Communication metadata — when we correspond by email or LinkedIn, the content of those conversations and the time they occurred.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 16.

3. Why we collect it (purposes)

We use the personal information above to:

  1. Respond to your inquiries and deliver the content you asked for (checklists, blog posts, discovery calls).
  2. Send you the email sequence tied to the lead magnet you downloaded — with a one-click unsubscribe at the bottom of every message.
  3. Send a periodic newsletter if you opted in.
  4. Deliver and invoice our paid services.
  5. Improve our website, measure which content works, and debug issues (via analytics).
  6. Comply with legal and accounting obligations (retain invoices, respond to lawful requests).
  7. Contact business prospects, on the basis of implied consent under CASL (publicly published business contact, referral, or existing business relationship) — always with a clear identification block and an unsubscribe path.

We will not use your personal information for any new purpose without telling you first.

4. Legal basis and consent

In Québec, the default basis for collecting personal information is your consent, which may be express (you fill a form) or implied (you write to us first to start a conversation). You can withdraw consent at any time by writing to hello@conseil.dev; we will stop using your information for that purpose within a reasonable time, subject to our legal retention obligations.

5. Service providers (sub-processors)

We use third-party services to operate conseil.dev. Most are based outside Québec (primarily in the United States and the European Union). When we transfer your personal information to a provider outside Québec, we take reasonable contractual and technical measures to protect it. Current providers include:

| Purpose | Provider | Location | | ------- | -------- | -------- | | Website hosting | Vercel | USA | | Email sending (transactional + newsletter) | Resend / Postmark | USA | | Call booking | Cal.com | USA | | Analytics | Google Analytics 4 | USA / EU | | Customer email (correspondence) | Google Workspace | Canada / USA | | Payment processing (clients only) | Stripe | USA / Canada |

This list may change as we add or remove tools. The current list is the one above at the date shown at the top of this page.

6. Cookies and similar tracking technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies for three reasons:

  • Strictly necessary — session, locale, security. These cannot be disabled.
  • Analytics — Google Analytics 4, to understand which pages are read and which CTAs are clicked. We store only anonymized or pseudonymized events (campaign_landing_view, campaign_cta_click, checklist_download, cal_booking) — never the content of a form or a piece of personal information.
  • Advertising — if we run Google Ads, we use a conversion pixel strictly to measure which ad led to a download or a booking. No retargeting, no cross-site tracking beyond what Google's default policy enforces.

You can block cookies through your browser. Blocking analytics cookies will not affect your ability to use the site.

7. Data retention

  • Contact form submissions: kept for 24 months, then archived.
  • Newsletter and lead-magnet subscribers: kept as long as you are subscribed; deleted within 90 days of unsubscribing.
  • Prospect records (publicly sourced business contacts): kept for at most 24 months from last meaningful interaction.
  • Billing and tax records: kept for the minimum period required by Canadian and Québec tax law (currently 6 years after the last tax year they apply to).
  • Server logs: kept for 30 days.

8. Your rights

Under Québec Law 25 and PIPEDA, you have the right to:

  • Access the personal information we hold about you.
  • Correct information that is inaccurate, incomplete, or out of date.
  • Delete your information, subject to our legal retention obligations.
  • Withdraw consent at any time for any purpose that relies on consent.
  • Data portability (effective since Law 25) — ask us to send you the computerized personal information you provided, in a structured technical format.
  • Be informed if we use automated decision-making that significantly affects you. We do not currently use automated decision-making.
  • File a complaint with the Commission d'accès à l'information du Québec (www.cai.gouv.qc.ca) or the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada (www.priv.gc.ca) if you believe we have mishandled your information.

To exercise any of these rights, write to hello@conseil.dev. We will respond within 30 days.

9. Security and breach notification

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information: encryption in transit (HTTPS), strong authentication on admin accounts, least-privilege access to third-party tools, and regular review of our providers.

If a confidentiality incident occurs that presents a risk of serious injury, we will notify you and the Commission d'accès à l'information without undue delay, as required by Law 25.

10. Children

The site and our services are aimed at business contacts. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 16. If you believe we have, write to us and we will delete it.

11. Changes to this policy

When this policy changes, we update the date at the top and — for material changes — we email current subscribers. The current version always lives at this URL.
