Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 19, 2026

Éditions Point de Ralliement places great importance on protecting the privacy and personal information of individuals who visit our website or communicate with us.

This policy explains what information may be collected, why it is collected, how it is used and protected, and what rights you have.

1. Personal Information Collected

When you use our contact form, we may collect the information you choose to provide to us, including:

• your first and last name;

• your email address;

• the subject of your inquiry;

• the title of a book concerned, where applicable;

• the content of your message;

• your consent to the use of this information for the purpose of responding to your inquiry.

We ask that you do not provide sensitive personal information that is not necessary to process your request.

2. Why Do We Collect This Information?

Information submitted through the form is used solely to process your request, communicate with you, provide support regarding our publications or resources, and carry out any necessary follow-up.

It is not used for marketing purposes or newsletter distribution without separate consent.

Collection should be limited to the information necessary for the identified purposes, and the use of personal information should remain connected to the purposes for which it was collected, except where another use is permitted by law.

3. Contact Form and Google Services

Our website is currently hosted using Google Sites, and our contact form uses Google Forms.

The information you submit through this form is therefore processed using Google’s technology services.

Google states that it operates servers in several countries and that information may be processed on servers located outside the user’s country of residence. As a result, some information submitted through our form may be processed or hosted outside Quebec or Canada.

4. Cookies and Technical Information

Google Sites, Google Forms, and other Google services integrated into the website may use cookies, local storage, and other technologies required for the operation, security, and improvement of their services.

Google indicates that its services may process certain technical data, such as IP addresses, browser type, device information, and certain cookies.

You can manage or block certain cookies through your browser settings. However, some features may no longer function properly.

5. Disclosure to Third Parties

Éditions Point de Ralliement does not sell personal information collected through the contact form.

Certain information may, however, be processed by technology providers required for the operation of the website, including Google.

Information may also be disclosed where required by law or where such disclosure is necessary to comply with a legal obligation.

6. Links to External Websites

Our website includes links that allow visitors to access our book pages on Amazon.

When you leave our website to visit an external site, that service’s privacy practices apply. Éditions Point de Ralliement does not control the privacy policies, cookies, or information-collection practices of those external websites.

7. Retention of Information

We retain personal information only for the period necessary to process the request and for any reasonably necessary follow-up arising from it.

When the information is no longer required, it is deleted, destroyed, or anonymized, subject to applicable legal obligations.

Businesses must establish practices regarding the retention and destruction of personal information.

8. Protection of Personal Information

We take reasonable measures to protect personal information against loss, unauthorized access, use, disclosure, or modification.

Access to information received is limited to individuals who need it to process the relevant requests. Protective measures must be proportionate to the sensitivity of the information held.

9. Your Rights

You may request information about the personal information we hold about you, request access to it, or request the correction of inaccurate or incomplete information.

Depending on the circumstances and applicable laws, other rights may also apply.

Quebec businesses must allow individuals to exercise, among other things, their rights of access and correction and must process requests in accordance with applicable requirements.

10. Person Responsible for the Protection of Personal Information

Éditions Point de Ralliement has designated a person responsible for the protection of personal information who oversees compliance with the organization’s privacy practices.

Person Responsible for the Protection of Personal Information
Éditions Point de Ralliement
Otterburn Park, Quebec, Canada
Email: confidentialite@pointderalliement.ca

You may contact this person with any questions regarding this policy, to exercise your rights, or to submit a complaint regarding the protection of your personal information.

In Quebec, the title and contact information of the person responsible for the protection of personal information must be published on the company’s website.

11. Changes to This Policy

This policy may be updated to reflect changes to our website, our practices, or applicable requirements.

The date of the most recent update will be indicated at the beginning of this page. Significant changes will be communicated through an appropriate notice.

Quebec law also provides that changes to a privacy policy must be communicated by a means that allows the individuals concerned to be reached.
