Introduction
Protecting your personal information is a priority at Next Agent Academy, operated by Bradley Richert. This policy explains the types of personal data we collect, why we collect it, how it's used or disclosed, and the safeguards in place. It also outlines your rights under Canadian federal and provincial privacy laws, including PIPEDA and, where applicable, BC PIPA, AB PIPA, and Québec’s Law 25.
1. Applicability of Canadian Privacy Laws
We operate across Canada. When collecting, using, or disclosing personal information in the course of providing our services, we comply with:
PIPEDA — the federal private-sector privacy law
PIPA (Alberta & British Columbia) or Québec’s Law 25, when dealing with individuals solely in those provinces
These Canadian standards require us to follow fair information principles, such as limiting collection, using data only for stated purposes, obtaining consent, and protecting data with reasonable safeguards.
2. Accountability
The designated privacy officer for Next Agent Academy is Bradley Richert, who is responsible for ensuring compliance with this policy and Canadian privacy laws.
3. What We Collect & Why
Contact and account data (name, email, phone number): for registering, enrollment, customer support, communications
Site usage and behavioral data (IP address, browser info, session data, cookies): for improving your experience and site functionality
Engagement data from platforms like email, messaging, or social media: to follow up on inquiries or provide resources
All collection is limited to what is necessary, and we specify its purpose at or before collection.
4. Consent
We obtain your explicit consent (e.g., checking a box) for collecting and using your personal information. Implied consent (e.g., continuation of service) applies to less sensitive information. In Québec, Law 25 requires opt-in consent and privacy-by-design measures.
5. Use & Disclosure
Your personal information is used to:
Deliver requested services and materials
Send you updates related to the Academy (e.g., course info, newsletters), unless you opt out
Run analytics or communication through trusted third-party partners (e.g., email platforms, payment processors)
We will never sell or lease your personal data.
6. Cross-Border Transfers & Third Parties
Your personal information may be stored or processed by trusted service providers located outside Canada (e.g., for hosting or email). We ensure these parties offer equivalent protection as required under PIPEDA and provincial laws. In Québec, Law 25 may require a Privacy Impact Assessment and contractual protections before transferring data.
7. Cookies & Tracking
Next Agent Academy uses cookies to enhance usability, remember preferences, and analyze site performance. You can disable cookies via your browser, though certain features may not function as intended. In Québec, Law 25 requires opt-in consent for cookies—appropriate notice and consent are provided on the site.
8. Your Rights & Choices
Under Canadian privacy laws, you have the right to:
Request access to your personal data
Request corrections to any errors
Withdraw consent (subject to constraints necessary to provide service)
Lodge a complaint with us or with the appropriate Privacy Commissioner
In Québec, you also have the right to erasure (“right to be forgotten”) and data portability.
9. Data Security & Retention
We maintain appropriate safeguards (e.g., SSL, secure storage systems) to prevent unauthorized access, loss, or disclosure. While no system is 100% secure, we strive for best practices. Personal data is retained only as long as necessary to fulfill its purpose or as required by law.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy over time. Significant changes will be communicated via email or a notice on our site. Continued use of services constitutes acceptance of those changes.
