Privacy Policy

Last updated 2026-06-24

Who this covers

This policy applies to ShopLog.ca (the “Service”), (the “we” / “us”). It explains what personal information we collect, how we use it, and your rights under Canada’s Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and equivalent provincial laws.

What we collect

From you (the user): your name, email address, role, plant assignment, and (when applicable) initials or display name. We use these to authenticate you and to attribute actions in the audit log.

From your employer (the customer): production data entered through the Service — work order numbers, customer names, product names, scrap counts, downtime reasons, operator-on-duty attribution. This data belongs to the customer organization, not to ShopLog.

Automatically: sign-in events (timestamp, IP address), basic usage analytics via Google Analytics (anonymized page views, route changes), and standard server logs.

How we use it

  • To deliver and operate the Service (authentication, role-based access, audit trail)
  • To provide customer support when you contact us
  • To improve the Service through aggregated, anonymized usage patterns
  • To comply with legal obligations (e.g. responding to lawful requests)

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information or your employer’s production data with third parties for marketing purposes. Ever.

Who owns customer data

The customer organization (your employer) owns the production data entered into ShopLog. We are a processor, not a controller, of that data. The customer can export, correct, or delete their data at any time through the Service or by emailing us. When a customer cancels their account, we retain a backup for 30 days for recovery purposes, then delete it permanently.

Where it’s hosted

ShopLog runs on trusted cloud infrastructure:

  • Render (United States) — application servers and the PostgreSQL database
  • Vercel (United States) — the web front-end
  • Google Analytics (United States) — anonymized usage analytics

Both Render and Vercel are SOC 2 Type II certified. Data in transit is encrypted with TLS; data at rest is encrypted at the storage layer. Because our infrastructure is in the United States, your data may be subject to U.S. law including lawful access requests — we will resist any request that exceeds what the law strictly requires.

How long we keep it

Active accounts: as long as the account exists. Cancelled accounts: 30 days of backup retention, then permanent deletion. Audit logs: retained for the life of the account, then deleted with the rest of the data on cancellation. Sign-in/usage logs: 90 days rolling.

Your rights under PIPEDA

You have the right to:

  • Access the personal information we hold about you
  • Correct inaccurate information
  • Request deletion of your account and associated personal data
  • Withdraw consent for any optional processing
  • Lodge a complaint with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada if you believe we’ve mishandled your data

To exercise any of these rights, email hello@codekraftbysilva.com. We respond within 30 days.

Breach notification

If we discover a breach of personal information that creates a real risk of significant harm, we will notify affected users and the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada within 72 hours of discovery, in line with PIPEDA’s mandatory breach notification rules.

Cookies

We use a single first-party cookie to keep you signed in (a JWT stored in browser localStorage, technically not a cookie but equivalent in function). Google Analytics sets analytics cookies for anonymized usage statistics — only after you accept the consent banner on first visit. We don’t use advertising cookies, retargeting pixels, or third-party trackers.

Changed your mind, or want to opt out of analytics?

Changes to this policy

When we update this policy, we’ll bump the “Last updated” date at the top. Material changes (anything that meaningfully reduces your rights or expands what we collect) will be announced via email to account owners at least 30 days before taking effect.
