Privacy Policy
Last updated: September 28, 2026
TradeDossier is an independent contractor-report service for homeowners in Halifax Regional Municipality, operated from Halifax, Nova Scotia. This policy explains what information we collect when you order a report, and what we do with it. Plain version: we collect the minimum needed to build and deliver your report, and we don't sell or share your information.
What we collect
- Order details you provide at checkout: your name, email address, the trade you need, a description of your job, and your town or postal code.
- Emails you send us if you reply to your report or contact us with questions.
We use the Meta Pixel, a small piece of code from Meta, to understand how visitors use this site and to measure our advertising. It records which pages you visit and which buttons you click. Meta may combine this with information from your Facebook account per Meta's Data Policy. You can control how Meta uses this data through your Facebook ad settings. We don't use any other analytics trackers beyond what our hosting provider collects for basic operation.
Who else handles your information
Two services help us run TradeDossier. They only receive what's needed for their job:
- Stripe processes your payment. Your card details go directly to Stripe — we never see, handle, or store your card number or banking details.
- Gmail and Zapier carry your order details from checkout to our fulfilment system so we can build and email your report.
How we use it
- To compile your contractor report, matched to the job you described.
- To deliver the report to your email address.
- To respond if you reply with questions about your report.
- To process refunds if one is owed.
What we don't do
- We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with contractors, advertisers, or anyone else.
- We take $0 from contractors — your details are never passed to the trades in your report.
- We don't send marketing emails. You'll only hear from us about your order.
How long we keep it
We keep order records for as long as needed to deliver your report and handle any follow-up questions or refunds, then delete them on request.
Your rights
We're based in Nova Scotia and handle your information in line with Canadian privacy law. You can ask us at any time what information we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it. Just reply to your report email and we'll take care of it.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, we'll update the date at the top of this page. One specific promise: if we ever add analytics or advertising trackers to this site (for example, the Meta Pixel), we'll update this page to say so before they go live.
