01 Who We Are

Aarvish Global LTD ("Aarvish," "we," "us," or "our") is a water technology company incorporated and operating from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. We design, develop, and deploy decentralized water treatment and distribution systems for Indigenous communities, remote facilities, and emergency response operations across Canada.

This Privacy Policy governs the collection, use, and disclosure of personal information by Aarvish Global LTD through our website (the "Site") and any associated digital communications.

We do not use session-recording tools, fingerprinting, or behavioral ad-tracking technologies.

03 How We Use Your Information

• Responding to your inquiries, partnership proposals, or procurement requests
• Evaluating potential deployment opportunities in communities or facilities
• Sending follow-up information about our technology that you have requested
• Improving the content and user experience of our Site
• Complying with legal obligations under Canadian federal and provincial law
• Maintaining records for government grant applications and reporting requirements

We do not use personal information for automated decision-making, profiling, or targeted advertising. We will never sell your personal information to third parties.

04 Sharing & Disclosure

Aarvish does not sell, rent, or trade personal information. We may share information only in limited circumstances:

• Service Providers: Trusted third parties who assist with website hosting, email delivery, or CRM functions, bound by confidentiality agreements.
• Government Partners: Where required for grant reporting or regulatory compliance with Indigenous Services Canada, Infrastructure Canada, or provincial bodies.
• Legal Requirements: When required by applicable law, court order, or to protect the safety of individuals.
• Business Transfer: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, personal data may transfer to the acquiring entity under equivalent privacy protections.

Any third-party service provider with access to personal information is contractually required to handle it in accordance with PIPEDA and this Policy.

05 Cookies & Analytics

Our Site uses minimal cookies to support essential functionality and basic analytics:

• Essential Cookies: Required for the Site to function correctly (e.g., form session management). These cannot be disabled without affecting Site functionality.
• Analytics Cookies: We may use Google Analytics or similar tools to understand aggregate Site usage. These collect anonymized data only and do not identify individual users.

You may control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling analytics cookies will not affect your ability to use our Site. We do not use advertising, retargeting, or social media tracking cookies.

06 Data Retention

We retain personal information only as long as necessary for the purpose it was collected:

• Inquiry records: Up to 3 years from last contact, unless an active business relationship is maintained.
• Analytics data: Aggregated and anonymized; retained up to 26 months per Google Analytics default settings.
• Legal and financial records: Retained as required by the Canada Business Corporations Act and applicable tax legislation (typically 7 years).

When retention periods expire, data is securely deleted or anonymized so it can no longer be linked to an individual.

07 Your Rights Under PIPEDA

As a Canadian resident, you have the following rights regarding your personal information under PIPEDA:

• Access: Request a copy of the personal information we hold about you.
• Correction: Request that inaccurate or incomplete information be corrected.
• Withdrawal of Consent: Withdraw consent for non-essential uses at any time, subject to legal and contractual limitations.
• Complaint: Lodge a complaint with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada (OPC) at priv.gc.ca if you believe your rights have been violated.

To exercise any of these rights, contact our Privacy Officer at operations@aarvish.ca. We will respond within 30 days as required by PIPEDA.

08 Cross-Border Transfers

Aarvish is a Canadian company and our primary data infrastructure is hosted in Canada. Some service providers (e.g., cloud hosting, analytics) may process data on servers located in the United States. When this occurs, data remains subject to the laws of that jurisdiction, including potential access by U.S. authorities under applicable legislation.

We take contractual measures (e.g., Data Processing Agreements) to ensure that any cross-border transfers maintain an equivalent level of protection to that provided under PIPEDA.

09 Children's Privacy

Our Site is intended for business and professional audiences. We do not knowingly collect personal information from individuals under the age of 16. If you believe a minor has submitted personal information through our Site, please contact us immediately and we will promptly delete the information.
