Once the collected personal information is no longer needed for CONSERTEK, we will implement appropriate procedures to securely destroy, delete, or erase it with evidence of elimination, in accordance with the law.

In those jurisdictions, law enforcement authorities, national security, and courts may also have access to your personal information. Please note that if you reside in Quebec, this may also include other Canadian provinces or territories outside of Quebec.
We are committed to complying with our legal and regulatory obligations regarding the protection of personal information during these transfers.
