Ottawa Multiservices Group Inc. (OMSG, “we” or “us”), based in Ottawa, Ontario, provides services in Ottawa, Gatineau and surrounding areas. This policy covers our website, client portal, service communications, applications and connected social media conversations.
For your service
We use the details needed to answer you and organize the agreed work.
Photos are optional
Quality photos require your permission. Publicity needs separate authorization.
Advertising is your choice
You can refuse optional Meta tracking and still request our services.
1. Information we collect and why
- Requests and services: your name, contact details, service address, selected services and frequency, property details, requested dates, messages and optional photos help us prepare quotes, arrange appointments and complete the work. Please share only what is needed for your request.
- Client records: account details, quotes, agreed tasks, appointments, checklists, invoices, payment status and correspondence support the portal, service follow-up and accounting. When an online card payment is offered, Stripe processes the card details; our CRM records the payment reference and status rather than your full card number.
- Electronic signatures: we record your name, signature image, accepted quote, consent, date and time, account and, when available, IP address and browser information as evidence of acceptance and appointment confirmation.
- Careers and partnerships: the contact details, experience, availability, CVs and business documents you submit are used to review your application and communicate with you. Do not include government identification numbers or unrelated sensitive documents in an initial application.
- Social media: if you contact us on Facebook, Messenger or Instagram and the relevant integration is enabled, our business inbox may receive your platform identifier, profile name, messages and attachments. Hosting and authentication services also process connection and technical information needed to operate and secure the site. Optional advertising is described below.
2. Photos and service communications
Photos can help us assess your request, but providing them is optional. Before-and-after quality photos are taken with your authorization and used for the private service report. Refusing these photos does not prevent the agreed service. Please avoid including people, identity documents, financial papers or unrelated belongings in photos you send.
Permission for a private quality report is not permission to publish images on our website, social media or advertisements. We ask for separate authorization before that use. Contact us to withdraw optional permission for future use; this does not automatically erase records we must lawfully retain.
We contact you about your request, quotes, appointments, services and payments. A quote request does not automatically subscribe you to promotional messages. Promotional communications require an applicable consent basis and a way to unsubscribe; opting out does not stop necessary messages about an agreed service.
5. Retention and safeguards
We retain information for the time needed for its purpose and applicable obligations. Factors include an active request or application, the service relationship, accounting and tax requirements, proof of an accepted contract, and a complaint or dispute. Photos and applications do not necessarily require the same retention as accounting records. Once no longer needed, information is deleted or anonymized unless lawful retention is necessary; restricted backups may remain until their normal replacement cycle.
Access restrictions and account-based permissions limit access to records and private files. Service-photo links may be time-limited. No website, email or storage system is entirely risk-free. Protect your account and avoid forwarding private access links. Contact us promptly if you suspect unauthorized access.
6. Your choices, requests and complaints
You can ask to access or correct your information, request deletion, withdraw optional consent, or raise a privacy concern. Depending on applicable law, you may have other rights, including receiving eligible computerized information in a commonly used format. We may verify your identity using information proportionate to the request. We will explain any lawful limitation or necessary retention and respond within applicable legal time limits.
We will explain if withdrawing information essential to an agreed service affects our ability to provide it. Optional advertising and publicity-photo consent are not conditions of receiving that service.

Mark your message “Privacy request”. Do not email passwords or full card details. If a concern remains unresolved, you can contact the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada or the Commission d’accès à l’information du Québec, according to their jurisdiction.
7. Updates to this policy
We update this policy when our services or information practices change. The date above identifies this version. A new policy does not replace consent required for a new, incompatible use of information; where needed, we will explain the change and request your choice.
