1. Introduction

Tina Doyle, Ontario REALTOR® ("I", "me", or "my"), is committed to protecting the privacy of your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how I collect, use, disclose, and safeguard personal information in the course of providing real estate services.

This policy is governed by the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and applicable Ontario privacy legislation. By engaging my services or submitting information through this website, you consent to the practices described herein.

2. What Is Personal Information?

Personal information means any information about an identifiable individual. This includes your name, address, telephone number, email address, financial information, and any other details you provide in connection with a real estate transaction or inquiry.

Publicly available information — such as a listed property address — is not considered personal information under PIPEDA.

3. Information I Collect

I may collect personal information directly from you when you: complete a contact or inquiry form on this website; request a home evaluation or Opinion of Value; engage me as your buyer's or seller's agent; subscribe to my newsletter or market updates; or communicate with me by phone, email, or in person.

I may also collect limited technical data automatically when you visit this website, such as your IP address, browser type, and pages visited, through analytics tools. This data is used in aggregate to improve the website and is not linked to your identity.

4. How I Use Your Information

I use your personal information only for the purposes for which it was collected, including: responding to your inquiries and providing real estate services; preparing and presenting offers, agreements, and related documents; conducting market analyses and property evaluations; sending you relevant market updates or newsletters (with your consent); and complying with legal and regulatory obligations under the Real Estate and Business Brokers Act (REBBA) and other applicable laws.

5. Disclosure of Your Information

I do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. I may share it only as necessary to complete a real estate transaction or as required by law, including with: other real estate professionals involved in your transaction (e.g., the cooperating agent, lawyers, mortgage brokers); the Toronto Regional Real Estate Board (TRREB) or applicable MLS® system; government authorities when required by law; and service providers who assist me in operating this website, subject to confidentiality obligations.

6. Consent

I collect, use, and disclose your personal information with your knowledge and consent. By submitting a form on this website or engaging my services, you provide express consent to the collection and use of your information as described in this policy.

You may withdraw consent at any time, subject to legal or contractual restrictions, by contacting me directly. Withdrawal of consent may limit my ability to provide certain services.

7. Retention of Information

I retain personal information only as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by law. Real estate transaction records may be retained for a minimum of six years in accordance with REBBA requirements.

8. Security

I take reasonable precautions to protect your personal information from loss, theft, unauthorised access, disclosure, copying, use, or modification. These safeguards include physical, administrative, and technical measures appropriate to the sensitivity of the information.

While I strive to protect your information, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure. I cannot guarantee absolute security of information transmitted electronically.

9. Your Rights Under PIPEDA

Under PIPEDA, you have the right to: access the personal information I hold about you; request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information; withdraw consent to collection or use (subject to legal limitations); and file a complaint with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada if you believe your privacy rights have been violated.
