Draft for review · November 11, 2026
District Engineered Systems Limited (“District,” “we,” “us” or “our”) respects your privacy. This policy explains how we handle personal information collected through www.districtes.com, including general inquiries and expressions of interest in employment.
1. Scope
This policy applies to information collected through our public website and communications arising from website submissions. It does not replace any separate privacy terms or notices that may govern our services, employment relationships, customer contracts or other systems.
2. Information we collect
When you contact us through a form or by email, we may collect your name, organization, contact details, the service area you are interested in, and the information you choose to include in your message. When you express interest in employment, we may collect your contact information, trade or professional interests, experience and any other details you voluntarily provide.
Our website and security providers may also process limited technical information such as IP address, browser and device information, request times, and security signals to deliver the site, detect abuse and troubleshoot problems.
Please do not include passwords, financial account numbers, government identification numbers or other sensitive information in a general website submission.
3. How we use information
We use website-submitted information to respond to inquiries, discuss potential services or projects, communicate about career opportunities, follow up on requests, maintain website security, and meet applicable legal obligations. We may retain relevant correspondence where necessary for normal business records.
Submitting an inquiry does not enrol you in a marketing mailing list. If District introduces optional marketing subscriptions, those activities will be explained separately and any legally required consent will be obtained.
4. Consent and choices
By voluntarily submitting your information, you authorize us to use it for the purpose reasonably connected to your request, subject to applicable law. You can choose not to submit a form and can instead contact us by telephone. If you wish to withdraw consent where applicable, contact us; this may limit our ability to fulfil an outstanding inquiry.
5. Service providers and disclosures
We may share information with service providers acting on our behalf when needed to operate this website, protect forms from abuse, deliver messages or support our business communications. Our planned website infrastructure includes Cloudflare for hosting and automated-abuse protection, and an email delivery provider such as Resend for routing inquiries to District. These providers may process information in jurisdictions outside Canada, where it may be subject to applicable local laws.
We do not sell personal information received through website inquiries. We may disclose information where required or permitted by law, to protect rights and safety, or with your consent.
6. Website analytics, cookies and security tools
Essential hosting and security technologies may use cookies or similar mechanisms to protect the website and evaluate whether a submission is automated. If we add optional analytics, advertising or other tracking technologies, we will review this policy and any required consent mechanisms before enabling them. You can control many cookies through your browser settings, although disabling essential technologies may affect site functionality.
7. Safeguards and retention
We aim to use administrative and technical safeguards appropriate to the nature of the information, including access controls and security measures for online submissions. No method of online transmission or storage can be guaranteed completely secure.
We retain information only for as long as reasonably needed to handle an inquiry, consider a career expression of interest, maintain necessary business records, resolve disputes or meet legal requirements. Information that is no longer required should be securely deleted or de-identified, as appropriate.
8. Access, correction and questions
You may contact us to request access to or correction of personal information District holds about you, subject to legal limitations and reasonable identity verification. You may also raise questions or concerns about our privacy practices. We will review your request and respond in accordance with applicable law.
For privacy questions or requests, please address your message to Privacy Officer / Privacy Inquiries at info@districtes.com, telephone (613) 280-1129, or write to District Engineered Systems Limited, 152 Moonstone Road, Building A, Carp, ON K0A 1L0.
9. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy to reflect changes in our website, systems, services or legal requirements. The most recent version will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
