Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect

This website and the Aventerra application are operated by Simon Villiard, a sole proprietor based in Drummondville, Quebec, doing business as "Aventerra" ("we", "us"). Aventerra is not currently incorporated.

When you join our early access waitlist, we collect your email address, primary backcountry activity, and region. We use this information solely to notify you when Aventerra launches in your area.

When you use the Aventerra app, we may collect location data, device identifiers, and usage information to provide terrain intelligence and safety features. Location data is processed on-device whenever possible.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Send you your early access notification (waitlist only)
• Provide and improve the Aventerra app and services
• Ensure the safety features of the app function correctly
• Analyze aggregate, anonymous usage patterns

We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

3. Analytics

This website uses Plausible Analytics (https://plausible.io), a privacy-respecting analytics tool that does not use cookies, does not collect personal data, and does not track you across websites. No cookie-consent banner is required.

4. Data Storage and Cross-Border Transfers

Waitlist information is stored securely using Supabase. We retain waitlist data only as long as necessary to fulfill early access notifications.

Some of our service providers — including Supabase (database hosting), Cloudflare (website hosting), and Plausible Analytics — may process or store information outside of Quebec, including in the United States and the European Union. Before relying on these providers, we have assessed their data-protection practices to confirm they offer protection equivalent to that required under Quebec law. By submitting your information, you acknowledge this potential cross-border transfer.

5. Your Rights

If you are a Quebec resident, the Act respecting the protection of personal information in the private sector ("Law 25") gives you the following rights with respect to your personal information:

• Right of access — request a copy of the personal information we hold about you
• Right of rectification — request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information
• Right to deletion — request that we delete your personal information
• Right to data portability — request your personal information in a structured, commonly used technical format
• Right to withdraw consent — withdraw your consent to our collection or use of your information at any time
• Right to lodge a complaint — file a complaint with the Commission d'accès à l'information du Québec (cai.gouv.qc.ca)

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at support@aventerra.app. We do not use your personal information to make decisions based exclusively on automated processing.

6. Person Responsible for the Protection of Personal Information

In accordance with Law 25, the person responsible for the protection of personal information at Aventerra is Simon Villiard. You may reach the person in charge at support@aventerra.app for any question, request, or complaint regarding your personal information.

7. Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services, each governed by their own privacy policies:

• Supabase — database and authentication
• Plausible Analytics — privacy-first website analytics
• Cloudflare Pages — website hosting

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post any changes on this page with an updated revision date. For material changes, we will notify early access subscribers by email.
