Privacy Policy

Anvers (“Anvers”, “we”, “us”, “our”) provides a business-to-business deal-execution service that connects buyers and suppliers and supports transactions from sourcing through to contract-ready terms (the “Services”).

We respect your privacy and protect personal information in accordance with Canada’s Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and Québec’s Act respecting the protection of personal information in the private sector (as amended by Law 25), where applicable.

1. Information We Collect

We collect information you choose to provide, including:

• Contact details: name, business email, phone (optional).
• Business details: company name, role or title, industry.
• Request details: information submitted through our forms — requirements, specifications, volumes, timelines, certifications, notes.
• Communications: messages you send us through the website or by email.

We may also collect limited technical information automatically from server logs (IP address, device and browser type, request metadata). This is used only for security and operational purposes. We do not run third-party analytics or tracking tools today; if that changes, this Policy and the cookie banner will be updated.

2. How We Use Information

• Respond to inquiries, quote requests, and supplier registrations.
• Provide and improve the Services.
• Maintain site security and prevent abuse.
• Communicate administrative information, such as changes to our pages or this policy.
• Meet legal and regulatory obligations.

3. Sharing of Information

We do not sell personal information.

We may share information with service providers who help us operate the website and the Services (hosting, form delivery, email, analytics, security). These providers are bound to protect the information and use it only for authorized purposes.

We may disclose information where required by law or in response to lawful requests by authorities.

4. Data Retention

We retain information only as long as necessary for the purposes described above, unless a longer retention period is required by law. We may retain business records for operational continuity, dispute handling, and compliance.

5. Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards to protect information. No system is fully secure; using the website involves some risk.

6. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to:

• Request access to personal information we hold about you.
• Request corrections.
• Request deletion, subject to legal and operational requirements.
• Withdraw consent for non-essential communications.

Québec residents may have additional rights under Law 25, including rights related to automated decision-making where applicable.

To exercise these rights, contact us at info@anvers.ca. We respond within 30 days.

7. Cookies and Analytics

We use cookies and similar technologies for essential functionality and, with your consent, basic analytics. See our Cookie Policy for details.
