Privacy Policy

Last updated

This policy explains how G & E Fertilizers Ltd. (“we”, “us”) handles information collected through this website. We are a Canadian company and handle personal information in accordance with the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA).

Information we collect

Quote requests and enquiries. When you submit a quote request or contact form, we collect the details you enter: your name, company, email address, phone number, country, and the requirement you describe (product, quantity, destination port, packaging, Incoterm, inspection needs and any message).

Direct contact. If you email or call us, we keep the information you share in that correspondence.

Website analytics. We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how the site is used. It sets cookies and collects information such as the pages you visit, referring site, device and browser type, approximate location, and interactions such as form submissions and clicks on phone or email links. We do not use advertising cookies.

Your choice. If you visit from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland (based on your approximate location, or if it cannot be determined), we ask first: the analytics script is not loaded unless you accept in the cookie banner. Elsewhere, analytics runs by default. Wherever you are, you can change your choice at any time with “Cookie settings” at the bottom of every page. If you decline, analytics is switched off and is not loaded on later visits. Your choice is saved in your browser’s local storage. You can also block cookies in your browser settings or use Google’s opt-out add-on.

Server logs. Like most websites, our hosting and security providers record technical request data (such as IP address, browser type and time of request) to operate and protect the site.

How we use it

  • To respond to your enquiry and prepare quotations and commercial offers.
  • To arrange supply, shipment, inspection and export documentation if we do business together.
  • To keep business, accounting and tax records we are required to maintain.
  • To operate, secure and improve this website.

We do not sell personal information, and we do not use it for unrelated marketing without your consent.

Sharing

We share information only where needed to act on your request, for example with suppliers, freight forwarders, inspection companies or banks involved in a quotation or shipment, and with service providers that host our website and email. Some of these parties are located outside Canada, so your information may be processed in other countries. We may also disclose information where required by law.

Retention and security

We keep information for as long as needed for the purposes above and to meet legal and record-keeping obligations, then delete it or make it anonymous. We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards to protect it.

Your choices and rights

You can ask to see the personal information we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or withdraw consent to its use (subject to legal or contractual restrictions). To make a request, email info@gefertilizers.com.

If you are not satisfied with our response, you can contact the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada.
