1. Who we are
Ashbard Global Agency ("Ashbard", "we", "us") is a provider of in-home care services operating across Calgary, Edmonton and Alberta. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use and protect the personal and health information of our clients, their families and anyone who contacts us.
2. Information we collect
We collect the information you give us directly — name, address, phone number, email, and the health and care details needed to plan safe support. We may also collect limited information from referral sources, healthcare providers or family members acting on your behalf, always with your consent. When you use our website, we collect basic technical data such as the pages visited and the device used.
3. How we use your information
We use your information to carry out assessments, prepare and deliver care plans, schedule caregivers, communicate with you, process payments, and meet our legal and regulatory obligations. We never sell your personal information to anyone.
4. Sharing information
We share information only with those who need it to provide your care — for example, the assigned caregiver and, with your consent, your doctor or other healthcare providers. We may disclose information where required by law, such as in response to a safeguarding concern or a court order.
5. Storing and protecting your data
Personal and health information is stored securely and access is limited to authorised staff and caregivers. We keep records only as long as needed to provide care and to meet legal retention requirements, then securely destroy them.
6. Your rights
You may ask to see the personal information we hold about you, request a correction, or ask us to limit how we use it. To make any of these requests, contact us using the details below. We will respond within 30 days.
7. Website and contact forms
When you submit the Request Support or Contact form, the details you enter are sent to our care team to follow up with you. We do not store payment card details on our website, and we do not use third-party advertising trackers.
8. Cookies
Our website uses only essential cookies needed for it to function. We do not use cookies for advertising or cross-site tracking. You can disable cookies in your browser settings without affecting your ability to read our pages.
9. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The current version will always be published on this page with its revision date. We will notify clients directly of any change that materially affects how their health information is handled.
