Next Level Bids is a Canadian business. This Privacy Policy explains how Next Level Bids collects, uses, protects, and discloses personal information through nextlevelbids.ca and its services.
Information we collect
We may collect your name, business name, email address, telephone number, billing information, payment status, project information, documents you submit, website usage information, and communications with us.
We collect this information when you submit a contact form, purchase a service, book a meeting, communicate with us, or provide documents for review.
How we use information
We use personal information to:
• Respond to inquiries.
• Provide and manage purchased services.
• Review proposals, RFPs, procurement documents, and related materials.
• Process payments and issue receipts or invoices.
• Schedule meetings.
• Communicate about projects.
• Prevent fraud, abuse, and unauthorized access.
• Improve our website and services.
• Meet legal, accounting, tax, and regulatory obligations.
• Screen for actual, potential, or reasonably perceived conflicts of interest.
We do not sell your personal information.
Service providers
We may use service providers to operate the business, including WordPress, SureCart, Stripe, email providers, website hosting providers, scheduling tools, analytics services, document tools, and productivity platforms. These providers may process information only as needed to provide their services.
Payment information
Payments are processed by third-party payment processors. Next Level Bids does not receive or store your complete payment-card number. Payment information is handled according to the processor’s own terms and privacy practices.
Procurement and conflict information
Because Next Level Bids may serve government clients, suppliers, and training clients, we may collect information about client organizations, procurement opportunities, RFPs, proposals, bidders, evaluators, project personnel, and potential conflicts of interest.
We use this information to determine whether we can accept an engagement, identify conflicts, maintain conflict records, establish information barriers, protect confidential information, comply with client requirements, and administer the engagement.
We may restrict access to this information based on client, project, role, and need to know. We do not use one client’s confidential information to benefit another client.
Proposal and business information
You should provide only the information necessary for the requested service. You remain responsible for confirming that you have authority to share any RFP, proposal, business, personal, confidential, or third-party information submitted to us.
Safeguards
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards to protect information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, disclosure, or alteration. However, no online system can guarantee absolute security.
Retention
We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for business, service delivery, legal, accounting, tax, dispute-resolution, conflict-screening, and recordkeeping purposes. We may securely delete or anonymize information when it is no longer required.
Access and correction
You may contact us to request access to, correction of, or information about personal information we hold about you. We may need to verify your identity before responding.
Marketing communications
We send marketing communications only where permitted and provide a reasonable way to unsubscribe. Unsubscribing from marketing messages will not stop essential service, payment, account, or transaction communications.
Children
Our services are intended for businesses and adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children for marketing or service purposes.
Changes
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The current version will be posted on this page with the effective date shown above.
