Patriot Tax & Bookkeeping is committed to protecting the privacy and security of your personal data in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). This page outlines how we comply with GDPR requirements and your rights as a data subject.
We process personal data only when we have a legal basis to do so. The legal bases we rely on include:
Under GDPR, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:
You have the right to request copies of your personal data. We may charge a small fee for this service.
You have the right to request that we correct any information you believe is inaccurate or complete information you believe is incomplete.
You have the right to request that we erase your personal data, under certain conditions.
You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data, under certain conditions.
You have the right to object to our processing of your personal data, under certain conditions.
You have the right to request that we transfer the data that we have collected to another organization, or directly to you, under certain conditions.
If you wish to exercise any of the rights set out above, please contact us at [email protected]. You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data or to exercise any of the other rights. However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive, or excessive.
We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and ensure your right to access your personal data. This is a security measure to ensure that personal data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it.
We will only retain your personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes we collected it for, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements.
To determine the appropriate retention period for personal data, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal data, the purposes for which we process your personal data, and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means.
We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorized way, altered, or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your personal data to those employees, agents, contractors, and other third parties who have a business need to know.
We have put in place procedures to deal with any suspected personal data breach and will notify you and any applicable regulator of a breach where we are legally required to do so.
We are based in Canada and the data we collect is stored and processed in Canada. If you are accessing our services from outside Canada, please be aware that your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed by us in Canada where our servers and central database are located.
We ensure that any transfer of personal data outside of the European Economic Area is protected by appropriate safeguards, such as standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission.
If you are located in the European Economic Area, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority if you believe that our processing of your personal data infringes GDPR.
