How we handle your information

Last updated November 2026

Silver Leaf Weddings is a wedding videography studio in Toronto, operated by 16414656 Canada Inc. This page explains what personal information we collect, why we collect it, and what you can ask us to do with it. We follow Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA).

The short version: we only collect what we need to answer your inquiry and film your wedding, we never sell it, and you can ask us to see, correct or delete it at any time.

What we collect

Information you give us. When you fill out a form on this site, send us a message through a lead form on a social platform like TikTok, or email us, we receive what you share: usually your name, email, phone number, wedding date, venue and any details about your plans.

Information from booking. If you book with us, we also keep your services agreement, invoices and payment records, and the details we need to plan and film your day.

Information collected automatically. Like most websites, ours uses cookies and similar tools to understand how people find and use the site. This includes Squarespace's built-in analytics, Google Analytics, Google Ads and OpenAI's ads pixel, which tells us when someone reaches us after clicking one of our ads in ChatGPT. These tools collect things like the pages you visit, the device and browser you use, and roughly where you are. They do not tell us who you are. If you send us a form after clicking one of our ChatGPT ads, OpenAI's pixel may also send OpenAI a scrambled (hashed) version of details like your email, so it can confirm the ad led to an inquiry.

How we use it

• To reply to your inquiry and send you package and availability details.
• To follow up about your wedding, if you have asked us about it.
• To prepare your agreement, invoices and payments if you book.
• To plan, film, edit and deliver your wedding films.
• To see which pages and ads are working, so we can improve the site and spend our advertising sensibly.

We don't add you to a mailing list or send marketing emails unless you ask us to.

Who we share it with

We do not sell, rent or trade your personal information. We share it only with the services we use to run the studio, and only as much as each one needs:

• Squarespace, which hosts this website and its forms.
• Google, for email, file storage and film delivery (Google Workspace and Google Drive), and for website analytics and advertising.
• OpenAI, to measure whether our ads in ChatGPT lead to inquiries.
• Wave, for invoices and payments.
• Frame.io, where you review your highlight film and leave revision notes.
• Social platforms such as TikTok, when you contact us through one of their lead forms.

Some of these services store information outside Canada, including in the United States, where it is covered by the laws of that country. We may also share information if the law requires it.

Your wedding films

Your films contain images and voices of you, your family and your guests, so we treat them with the same care as the rest of your information. How your films may be shared publicly is set out in your services agreement.

Cookies and analytics

You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, and the site will still work. You can also turn off personalized Google ads in your Google ad settings, or stop Google Analytics from collecting your visits with Google's opt-out browser add-on.

Our films are hosted on YouTube. When you play one on this site, YouTube may set its own cookies under its own privacy policy.

How long we keep it

If you inquire and don't book, we keep your details for as long as we are in touch about your wedding, then delete them on request. If you book, your agreement, invoices and payment records are kept for as long as Canadian tax and accounting rules require.

Delivered films are available to download for 60 days, then kept in archival storage for 6 months.

How we protect it

We keep your information in password-protected accounts that only our team can access, and we limit access to the people who need it to work on your wedding.

Your choices

You can ask us at any time to:

• See the personal information we hold about you.
• Correct anything that is wrong.
• Delete your information, unless we are required to keep it, for example for tax records.
• Stop contacting you.

Email us and we will reply within 30 days. If you are not happy with how we handled your request, you can contact the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada.

Changes to this policy

If we change how we handle your information, we will update this page and the date at the top.
