Privacy Policy

Fundspoke Inc. (“Fundspoke”, “we”, “our”, “us”) respects your privacy. This policy explains what personal information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. It applies to fundspoke.com and to the internal systems we use to run our business.

Who we are

Fundspoke is a Canadian funding advisory firm. We help growth companies secure government grants, tax credits, and capital. You can reach us at info@fundspoke.com.

Information we collect

From you, when you contact us. If you fill out a contact form, request a call, or email us, we collect the details you provide. Typically that means your name, email address, company name, phone number, and whatever you choose to write in the message field.

Automatically, when you visit the site. We and our analytics providers collect standard technical information through cookies and similar technologies. This includes your IP address, browser type, device type, pages viewed, referring URL, and time on page.

The third-party services we currently use on this site are:

• Vercel Analytics and Vercel Speed Insights, for traffic and performance measurement.
• Google Tag Manager, for managing tags and scripts.
• LinkedIn Insight Tag, for advertising measurement and audience building on LinkedIn.

Each of these providers handles your information under its own privacy terms.

From third-party services we connect to internally. In the course of running our business, we connect our internal systems to services our clients and we authorize, such as Intuit QuickBooks Online. When we do, our internal applications may read and store business records (for example, accounts, customers, vendors, invoices, and transactions) inside our own private database. This data is used solely to operate our business and serve our clients. It is not shared with advertisers, sold, or made available to third parties for their own purposes.

How we use information

We use the information we collect to:

• Respond to inquiries and arrange calls.
• Provide and improve our services.
• Send service-related communications.
• Operate, secure, and improve the website.
• Comply with legal obligations.

We do not sell personal information. We do not share it for third-party advertising other than the measurement described above.

Cookies and your choices

Most browsers let you refuse or delete cookies. You can also use tracker-blocking tools or the opt-out mechanisms offered by each analytics provider. Blocking cookies will not affect your ability to read the site, but some features may behave differently.

Sharing

We share information only as needed to run our business:

• With service providers who host our website, send our email, run our analytics, and store our records. These providers act on our instructions.
• With professional advisors (such as accountants and lawyers) under confidentiality.
• When required by law, court order, or to protect our rights, our clients, or the public.
• In connection with a business transaction (such as a financing or sale), in which case we will require the recipient to honour this policy.

Where we store information

Our service providers may store and process information in Canada, the United States, or other countries. When information is handled outside Canada, it is subject to the laws of those jurisdictions.

Retention

We retain personal information for as long as we have a relationship with you, plus a reasonable period after that for legal, tax, and operational reasons. Data drawn from connected third-party services is retained while the connection is active and deleted on request or when the connection is removed, subject to our backup cycles.

Your rights

Under Canadian privacy law (PIPEDA) and similar laws, you have the right to:

• Ask what personal information we hold about you.
• Ask us to correct inaccurate information.
• Withdraw consent for future uses, subject to legal and contractual constraints.
• Ask us to delete information we no longer need to keep.

To make a request, email info@fundspoke.com. We may need to verify your identity before responding.

Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect personal information. No system is perfectly secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Children

This site is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The effective date at the top will reflect the latest revision. Material changes will be highlighted on this page.
