We collect personal information necessary to deliver our accessibility services, coordinate home assessments, and maintain our communications. We collect information through the following channels:

  • Contact and Enquiry Form Details: Name, phone number, email address, postal code, residential address, preferred contact method, and information about the accessibility modifications you are considering.
  • Referral Form Details from Clinicians and Caregivers: Information provided by occupational therapists, physical therapists, social workers, case managers, or family members submitting a referral on a client’s behalf. This may include client contact information, property access details, and specific mobility recommendations.
  • Phone, Text, and Email Correspondence: Records of inquiries, consultation notes, project specifications, photographic measurements you share with us (such as stairs or bathroom layouts), and customer service interactions.
  • Website Usage Data: Non-personally identifiable technical details such as your browser type, device operating system, pages viewed, referring web pages, and general geographic region, collected via automated logging and cookies.

3. How We Use It

We use the personal information we collect strictly for legitimate business purposes connected with fulfilling your accessibility needs:

Inquiries & Consultations

To respond promptly to quote requests, answer product queries, schedule free in-home assessments, and confirm appointments.

Assessments & Quotes

To evaluate physical measurements, evaluate staircase and bathroom configurations, and provide accurate, itemized proposals.

Installation & Service

To dispatch certified technicians, complete custom equipment installations, perform safety inspections, and maintain rental equipment.

Referral & Funding Support

4. Information Sharing & Disclosure

We never sell, rent, trade, or barter your personal information to third parties or marketing lists.

We disclose personal information only in the limited circumstances described below:

  • Service Providers: Trusted third-party service partners who assist our operations (such as secure web hosting, electronic communication tools, and payment processing). These providers are contractually bound to confidentiality and are prohibited from using your data for any other purpose.
  • Healthcare Clinicians & Case Coordinators: When explicitly authorised by you or your legal representative, we may exchange updates regarding installation status or measurements with your occupational therapist or funding coordinator.
  • Legal Obligations: When required by Canadian federal or provincial law, court order, or regulatory authority to comply with legal processes or protect the physical safety of an individual.

5. Cookies & Website Analytics

Cookies are small text files stored on your computer or mobile device when you browse websites. They help the website function smoothly, remember your preferences, and understand which sections are most useful to visitors.

How We Use Cookies

Our website uses standard essential cookies to deliver core web features, alongside aggregate analytics cookies that provide anonymous metrics about traffic patterns, popular products, and site errors. Analytics data is aggregated and does not identify individual visitors.

How to Control Cookies

You can configure, decline, or delete cookies at any time through your web browser settings. Most browsers (such as Chrome, Safari, Edge, and Firefox) allow you to refuse cookies, delete existing cookies, or notify you when a cookie is sent. If you disable cookies, you can still view our website, though certain interactive features may have minor limitations.

6. How Long We Keep It

We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, or to comply with statutory legal, accounting, and tax requirements in Canada.

For ongoing customers with active warranties, maintenance agreements, or rental equipment, we maintain service and installation records to honour warranty claims and ensure the long-term safety of the modifications. When information is no longer required, it is securely destroyed, erased, or anonymized in accordance with industry best practices.

7. Safeguards & Security

We implement reasonable physical, technical, and administrative security measures appropriate to the sensitivity of the information in our custody.

These safeguards include encrypted network protocols (SSL/TLS), firewalls, access controls limiting data access to employees with a genuine need-to-know, and secure handling procedures for on-site documentation. While no internet transmission or electronic storage is completely impenetrable, we routinely review and upgrade our security practices to protect your data.

8. Your Privacy Rights (PIPEDA & BC PIPA)

As an organization operating in British Columbia, Home2stay respects and upholds your privacy rights under Canadian privacy legislation, including the federal Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and British Columbia's Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA).

Under these laws, you have specific rights concerning the personal information we hold:

Right to Access:You may request access to the personal information we hold about you and learn how it has been used or disclosed.
Right to Correction:If you believe any information we possess is incomplete or inaccurate, you may ask us to correct or update it.
Right to Withdraw Consent:You may withdraw or modify your consent to our collection or use of your personal information at any time, subject to legal or contractual limitations and reasonable notice.

To exercise any of these rights, please submit a written request to our Privacy Officer using the contact details provided in Section 12.

9. Health & Mobility Information Note

Strict Purpose Limitation

In the course of planning bathroom conversions, stairlift installations, ramps, and safety grab bars, you or your healthcare clinician may share information concerning mobility limitations, balance, physical challenges, or adaptive equipment needs.

Any mobility or health-related detail shared with Home2stay is treated with the highest degree of sensitivity and discretion. It is used strictly to recommend, specify, engineer, and install appropriate accessibility solutions that keep you safe. We never disclose health or mobility details for marketing, profiling, or unrelated third-party use.

10. Children's Privacy

Our website and home accessibility services are intended for adults, caregivers, and seniors. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from individuals under the age of 18 without verified parental or legal guardian consent. Where pediatric accessibility solutions (such as pediatric ramps or specialized bath adaptations) are planned, all communications and agreements are conducted strictly through the child's parent, legal guardian, or treating pediatric clinician.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may periodically update this Privacy and Cookie Policy to reflect changes in our operational procedures, technology, or Canadian legal standards. When modifications are made, the revised policy will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. We encourage you to review this page periodically to stay informed about how we protect your personal information.
