Privacy Policy
Last updated September 2026
Maritime Basement Waterproofing respects your privacy. This page explains what we collect when you use this website, why we collect it, and what we do with it.
What we collect
When you submit a quote request or contact form, we collect the information you enter: your name, phone number, email address, the town you are in, an optional postal code, and the details you provide about your property and the problem you are having. We also record which page the form was submitted from, so we know what you were reading when you got in touch.
We do not ask for and do not want payment information, government identification, or any other sensitive personal data through this website.
Why we collect it
Solely to respond to your enquiry, arrange an assessment, prepare a quote, and carry out work you engage us for. We use your contact details to reach you about your enquiry and nothing else unless you separately ask us to.
What we do not do
- We do not sell your personal information.
- We do not share it with third parties for their marketing.
- We do not add you to a mailing list because you requested a quote.
We share information only with service providers who help us operate, for example the email service that delivers your form submission to us, and only to the extent needed to do that job.
How long we keep it
We keep enquiry records while they are relevant to serving you, and for as long afterward as we need them for warranty, tax, and legal purposes. You can ask us to delete your information at any time and we will, unless we are required to retain it.
Cookies and analytics
This site can use Google Analytics to understand how visitors find and move through it: which pages are read, which searches bring people here, and where they leave. It helps us work out what is worth writing about.
Nothing loads until you agree. When you first visit, a banner asks whether analytics is alright with you. If you decline, or simply never answer, no request is made to Google and no analytics cookies are set. If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal we treat that as a decline automatically and do not show the banner at all.
When you do accept, we configure Google Analytics to measure traffic rather than to profile you. Your IP address is anonymised, and Google's advertising and ad-personalisation signals are switched off, so your visit here is not used to target advertising to you anywhere else.
What gets stored
| Name | Type | Purpose | Expires |
|---|---|---|---|
| mbw.consent | Local storage | Remembers your answer so we stop asking. Set whichever way you answer, including when you decline. | 12 months |
| _ga | Cookie | Google Analytics. Distinguishes one visitor from another. | 2 years |
| _ga_15536JE355 | Cookie | Google Analytics. Keeps track of a single visit. | 2 years |
The consent record is the only thing stored if you decline, and it is kept in your browser's local storage rather than in a cookie, so asking you about cookies does not itself set one.
Changing your mind
Use the Cookie settings link at the bottom of any page. Choosing "No thanks" after having accepted stops further collection and deletes the Google Analytics cookies from your browser. You can also block or delete them in your browser settings, or install Google's official opt-out add-on. None of it affects how this site works for you.
We use no advertising cookies, no cross-site tracking, and no social media pixels anywhere on this site.
Your rights
Under Canada’s Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), you have the right to ask what personal information we hold about you, to have it corrected if it is wrong, and to withdraw consent for its use. To make any of those requests, email quotes@maritimebasementwaterproofing.com or call (902) 555-0100.
Security
This site is served over HTTPS, and form submissions are transmitted encrypted. We limit access to enquiry information to the people who need it to do the work.
Changes
If this policy changes we will update this page and change the date at the top of it.
