Privacy policy

Who we are

GCB is a sports performance project operated by Michael Gelinas in Quebec, Canada. You can reach us at [email protected].

Person responsible for the protection of personal information

Michael Gelinas, founder. Write to [email protected] for any question or request about your personal information.

What we collect

Only what you give us when you join the waitlist:

• your first name and your email address;
• who you are (parent or guardian, athlete aged 14 or older, coach, school sport lead, other);
• if you choose to tell us: your city or town, the sport or sports you are interested in, and what interests you;
• the date and time of your sign-up, as recorded by the form service.

Why we collect it

• to tell you about the progress of the project and the opening of programs;
• to understand demand, by sport and by area, so that we can decide which programs to build. We use these figures in aggregate form only.

We do not sell your information, we do not rent it, and we do not share it with anyone for their own purposes.

Consent and age

We collect your information only with your consent, given by ticking the box on the form. Athletes aged 14 or older may sign up themselves. If the athlete is under 14, a parent or guardian must sign up on their behalf.

Where your information is kept and who handles it

Sign-ups are received by an online form service that we use as a service provider. The service is Web3Forms, operated by Web3Creative (India). It processes your submission only to forward it by email to our mailbox, and states that it does not store form submissions. Your information is therefore processed outside Quebec in transit, and then kept in our email mailbox. We do so in compliance with Quebec privacy law.

How long we keep it

We keep your information for as long as it is needed for the purposes above. After that we delete it or make it anonymous. You can ask us to delete it at any time.

Your rights

You may ask to see the personal information we hold about you, to have it corrected, to withdraw your consent, or to have it deleted. Write to [email protected] and we will answer within 30 days. If you are not satisfied, you may file a complaint with the Commission d'accès à l'information du Québec.

Cookies, analytics and fonts

This site does not use advertising cookies or analytics. It remembers your language choice in your browser only, and does not send it to us. The fonts are served from this site, not from a third party. Our hosting provider may keep technical logs (such as IP addresses) for security and operation.

Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your information against loss, theft and unauthorized access.
