Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how kriswangrealty.ca (the "Website") collects, uses, stores and protects your personal information. The Website is operated by Kris Wang, a licensed real estate broker with Centerpoint Realty Inc. Brokerage. We handle your personal information in accordance with Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA).

What Information We Collect

Information you provide to us. When you fill out the free consultation form, send an email, call, or add us on WeChat, we receive the information you provide, such as:

• Your name, phone number, email address and WeChat ID
• Whether you're looking to buy, sell, rent or learn about pre-construction, plus the areas you're interested in and your timeline
• Anything else you include in your message

Please do not enter sensitive information such as bank account details or your Social Insurance Number (SIN) in the form. If we later begin working together formally and need to verify your identity or sign documents, we will explain this separately.

Information generated automatically when you browse. Like most websites, this Website's server and security systems record technical information such as visitors' IP addresses, browser type and time of visit, to keep the Website running and protect it against malicious attacks. The IP address is also recorded when a form is submitted, to help identify spam.

Cookies and website analytics. This Website may use analytics tools such as Google Analytics to understand how many people visit and which pages they view. These tools use cookies. The statistics are aggregated, and we do not use them to identify you personally. You can refuse or delete cookies in your browser settings; the basic functions of the Website will not be affected.

How We Use This Information

• To respond to your inquiry and discuss your needs for buying, selling, renting or pre-construction
• To contact you by phone, email or WeChat, with your consent
• If you become a client, to provide real estate brokerage services and keep transaction records as required by law and industry rules
• To keep the Website secure and improve its content

We use the information only for the purposes above. If we ever want to use it for another purpose, we will ask for your consent first.

Your Consent

Before submitting the form, you need to check the box agreeing that Kris Wang and Centerpoint Realty Inc. Brokerage may contact you by phone, email or WeChat. You can withdraw this consent at any time: reply to one of our emails saying "unsubscribe", or tell us directly using the contact details below. Once you withdraw, we will no longer contact you (except for records we are required by law to keep).

Who We Share Information With

We do not sell your personal information. Information is provided to others only in the following situations:

• Centerpoint Realty Inc. Brokerage: the brokerage Kris Wang is registered with. Under Ontario rules, a brokerage must supervise and keep records of its brokers' business.
• Companies that provide services to this Website: for example, web hosting (Hostinger), email (Google Workspace) and website analytics (Google Analytics). These companies may only process information as we instruct and may not use it for their own purposes.
• Parties necessary to complete a transaction: if you become a client, and with your consent, we may need to share necessary information with lawyers, lenders, the other party's brokerage and other parties to the transaction.
• When required by law: for example, when a government agency or regulator lawfully requests the information.

The service companies above may store or process data outside Canada (for example, in the United States), in which case the information is also subject to the laws of that country.

How Long We Keep It

We keep your information only as long as needed for the purposes above. Inquiry records that do not lead to further work together are deleted once no longer needed. If you become a client, transaction records are kept for the period required by law and industry rules.

How We Protect Information

We take reasonable measures to protect your information, including an encrypted connection (HTTPS), login restrictions on admin accounts, a website firewall, and limiting access to those who need to handle your inquiry. However, no transmission of information over the internet can be completely secure.

Your Rights

At any time, you may:

• Ask to see the personal information we hold about you
• Ask us to correct inaccurate information
• Withdraw your consent or ask us to delete your information (except where the law requires us to keep it)

Please make your request using the contact details below, and we will respond within a reasonable time. If you are not satisfied with how we handle your information, you may also file a complaint with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada (priv.gc.ca).

Third-Party Websites

Articles on this Website may link to other websites, such as those of government agencies and banks. Those websites have their own privacy policies and are not covered by this policy.

Updates to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The updated version will be posted on this page, and the date at the top of the page will be revised.
