You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information by contacting us at info@myerslegal.ca. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe, subject to legal and professional obligations requiring us to retain certain records.

5. Data Security

We implement industry-standard safeguards to protect personal information stored electronically. While no system is completely secure, we use reasonable measures to minimize the risk of unauthorized access, use, or disclosure.

Our servers may be located outside of Canada, which means your personal information may be subject to foreign privacy and security laws. If this is a concern, please contact us before using the Website.

If a data breach affecting your personal information occurs, we will notify affected individuals as soon as reasonably possible and in compliance with applicable laws.
