Privacy Policy

Look, we get it - nobody really enjoys reading these things, but we think it's important you know exactly how we handle your info

Last Updated: October 20, 2025

The Basics

At Zephyr Rune Legends Architecture, we're pretty straightforward about how we work with your personal information. We've been designing spaces inspired by ancient myths since we started, and honestly, protecting your privacy is just as important to us as getting those proportions right in our designs.

This policy covers what we collect, why we need it, and what we do with it. No hidden clauses or confusing jargon - just the real deal about how your data's handled when you work with us or visit our site.

What Info We Actually Collect

When you reach out or work with us, here's what we typically need:

  • Contact Details: Your name, email, phone number - the usual stuff so we can actually get back to you
  • Project Information: Details about what you're looking to build or renovate, budget ranges, timelines
  • Property Data: Address, lot size, existing building specs if you've got 'em
  • Communication Records: Emails, meeting notes, design preferences you've shared
  • Website Analytics: Basic stuff like how you found us, what pages you checked out, device type

How We Use Your Information

We're not gonna sell your info to random companies or spam you with unrelated stuff. Here's what we actually do with it:

Project Development

Creating designs that actually match what you're envisioning, preparing drawings, getting permits sorted

Communication

Keeping you updated on progress, answering questions, scheduling meetings

Documentation

Contracts, invoices, and maintaining project records as required by law

Service Improvement

Understanding what works and what doesn't so we can get better at what we do

How We Protect Your Data

We take security seriously around here. Our digital files are encrypted, physical documents are locked up, and access is limited to team members who actually need it for your project.

We use industry-standard security measures, secure servers, and regular backups. While no system's 100% bulletproof (anyone who says otherwise is lying), we do everything reasonable to keep your information safe from unauthorized access or breaches.

When We Share Information

We don't hand out your info to just anyone, but there are times when we need to share certain details:

  • Contractors & Consultants: Engineers, surveyors, contractors who're working on your project need relevant info to do their jobs
  • Regulatory Bodies: Building departments, municipal offices, heritage boards when permits and approvals are needed
  • Legal Requirements: If we're legally obligated to disclose information (court orders, etc.)
  • Service Providers: Cloud storage, email services, accounting software - but only with companies that have solid privacy practices

Your Rights & Choices

This is your data, and you've got rights regarding how it's used:

Access

Ask to see what personal info we've got on file about you

Correction

Request updates if something's outdated or incorrect

Deletion

Request removal of your data (with some legal exceptions)

Opt-Out

Unsubscribe from marketing emails anytime

Cookies & Tracking

Yeah, our website uses cookies - not the chocolate chip kind, unfortunately. These small files help us understand how people use the site and remember your preferences.

We use analytics tools to see which pages get the most traffic and how visitors navigate around. You can disable cookies in your browser settings if you want, though it might affect how some features work.

How Long We Keep Your Data

We hold onto project files and client information for as long as necessary - typically 7 years for completed projects due to professional liability requirements and Canadian business regulations.

For general inquiries that don't turn into projects, we'll keep your contact info for about a year in case you decide to move forward later. After that, it gets deleted unless you ask us to keep it.

Third-Party Links

Our site might link to other websites - supplier catalogs, material databases, inspiration galleries, that sort of thing. Once you click through to those sites, this privacy policy doesn't apply anymore. They've got their own policies, so check those out if you're concerned about how they handle data.

Updates to This Policy

We might update this privacy policy from time to time as laws change or we add new services. When we make significant changes, we'll post a notice on our website and update the date at the top. For ongoing clients, we'll shoot you an email to let you know what's changed.
