Last updated: July 15, 2026. What personal information Webscales collects, why, how we use and protect it, and the rights you have.
Webscales ("Webscales," "we," "us," or "our") operates the website webscales.ca (the "Site") and provides website design, search engine optimization (SEO), advertising, and marketing-automation services (the "Services"). We are based in Montréal, Québec, Canada. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting the personal information you share with us.
This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, disclose and safeguard your personal information. It is intended to comply 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).
Webscales is a sole proprietorship operated by Samir Dahmane.
114 Avenue De Glenbrook CrescentThis mailing address and contact information also serve as our sender identification for email and text-message (SMS) communications, in accordance with Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL).
Under Québec's Law 25, the person responsible for the protection of personal information at Webscales is Samir Dahmane. You may contact this person for any privacy question or request, or to exercise the rights described below, at samir@webscales.ca or 438 839 0381.
Information you provide. When you submit a form on our Site, opt in through our on-site chat/opt-in widget, or contact us directly, we collect the information you choose to give us — typically your name, business name, email address, phone number, and the contents of your message.
Information collected automatically. We and our service providers automatically collect technical information through cookies, pixels and similar technologies, including your IP address and approximate location, browser and device type, the pages you view and how you interact with the Site, and your referring website and visit time.
We use cookies and similar technologies to operate the Site, understand how it is used, and measure and improve our advertising — grouped as strictly necessary, analytics (e.g. Google Analytics) and advertising (e.g. the Meta Pixel). You can control or delete cookies through your browser and opt out of most interest-based advertising through the Digital Advertising Alliance of Canada.
We advertise on Meta platforms (Facebook and Instagram). To measure and improve those ads, our Site uses the Meta Pixel, which may collect your IP address, browser and device information, and the actions you take on our Site. Meta may match this to your account and use it to measure and personalize advertising. For details and controls, see Meta's Privacy Policy and your Facebook ad preferences.
If you choose to opt in through the chat/opt-in widget on our Site, you may receive text (SMS) messages from Webscales. Our SMS program works as follows:
Consistent with PIPEDA and Québec's Law 25, you may withdraw your consent at any time, and request access to or deletion of the personal information associated with your SMS enrollment by contacting us.
We collect, use and disclose your personal information with your consent (express or implied) and as otherwise permitted or required by law. By submitting a form, opting in through our widget, or contacting us, you consent to our handling of your information as described here. You may withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us, subject to legal or contractual restrictions.
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with trusted service providers who process it on our behalf — hosting & security (Cloudflare), analytics (Google), advertising (Meta), and our email, form and SMS/chat providers — and as required by law or in connection with a business transaction. As stated above, your mobile phone number and SMS consent are never shared with third parties or affiliates for their own marketing.
Some of our service providers (including Meta, Google and Cloudflare) may store or process your information on servers outside Québec and Canada, including in the United States, where it may be subject to those jurisdictions' laws. We take reasonable steps to ensure comparable protection wherever it is processed.
We keep personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described here, provide our Services, and meet our legal, accounting or reporting obligations. When it is no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymize it.
We use reasonable administrative, technical and physical safeguards — including encryption in transit (HTTPS) — to protect your personal information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Subject to applicable law, you have the right to access the personal information we hold about you; request correction; withdraw your consent; request deletion, de-indexing or that we stop disseminating it; and request a copy of the information you provided in a structured, commonly used technological format (data portability). To exercise any of these rights, contact us at samir@webscales.ca. If you are not satisfied with our response, you may file a complaint with the Commission d'accès à l'information du Québec or the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada.
We do not use your personal information to make a decision about you based exclusively on automated processing.
The Site and Services are intended for businesses and are not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from minors. If you believe a minor has provided us information, please contact us and we will delete it.
Our Site may link to third-party websites, including the sites of businesses we have built or worked with. We are not responsible for their privacy practices; please review their own policies.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date above. Material changes will be posted here, and your continued use of the Site after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
