1. Who we are
Papillon & Lavande is a boutique kennel based in Mont-Saint-Hilaire, Quebec. This policy explains what personal information we collect through this site, why we collect it, and what rights you can exercise, in accordance with Quebec's Act respecting the protection of personal information in the private sector, as amended by Law 25.

4. Cookies and tracking technologies
No analytics cookie is set before your explicit consent. The banner shown on your first visit lets you accept or decline, and declining is just as easy as accepting. You can change your choice at any time using the "🌿 Cookies" button at the bottom of every page.
Cookies strictly necessary for the site to function — remembering your consent choice, for example — are set without consent, as permitted by law.
5. Disclosure to third parties
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. It is only shared with providers necessary to operate the site (hosting, audience measurement), and only to the extent required. No information is shared with other breeders.
6. Hosting and place of processing
This site is hosted on a server located in Canada. Should a provider need to process your information outside Quebec, we would first carry out the privacy impact assessment required by Law 25.
7. Your rights
- Access — obtain a copy of the information we hold about you.
- Rectification — have inaccurate or incomplete information corrected.
- Withdrawal of consent — withdraw your consent at any time, without affecting a request already in progress.
- Deletion — request deletion of information whose purpose has been fulfilled.
- Portability — receive your information in a structured, commonly used technological format.
- Complaint — file a complaint with Quebec's Commission d'accès à l'information if our response does not satisfy you.
We respond to any request within a maximum of 30 days.
8. Security
The site is served entirely over HTTPS. Access to received requests is limited to the person in charge of the kennel. Should a privacy incident present a risk of serious harm, we would notify the affected individuals as well as the Commission d'accès à l'information, as required by law.
9. Changes
Any change to this policy will be published on this page, with a revised update date.
