We take your privacy seriously - here's exactly how we handle your information
Last Updated: November 10, 2025
Look, we get it - nobody actually enjoys reading privacy policies. But since we're dealing with maritime and space law matters that often cross multiple jurisdictions, it's kinda important that you understand how we handle your info.
At Nexyrian Odyssey Legal Services, we're committed to protecting your privacy while providing top-notch legal representation. This policy applies to all information we collect through our website, email communications, and during our client interactions.
By using our services or website, you're agreeing to the terms outlined here. If something doesn't sit right with you, we'd rather you reach out to us before proceeding.
When you reach out to us or become a client, we'll typically collect things like your name, company details, email address, phone number, and mailing address. Pretty standard stuff for any law firm.
Depending on your case - whether it's a shipping dispute, satellite licensing issue, or cross-border merger - we'll need relevant documentation and details about your situation. This might include contracts, vessel registrations, corporate documents, or technical specifications.
Our website collects basic technical info like your IP address, browser type, pages visited, and how long you stuck around. We use this to improve the site and understand what folks are looking for.
We keep records of our conversations - emails, phone calls, video conferences, and meetings. This helps us provide better service and protects both of us if there's ever a dispute about what was discussed.
We're not in the business of collecting data just for kicks. Here's what we actually do with your information:
We don't sell your information to third parties. Period. That's not how professional legal services work.
We take security seriously - probably more than most firms, given that we're dealing with high-value maritime and aerospace matters.
Your data is primarily stored on Canadian servers, though some cloud services we use may have redundant storage in other jurisdictions (typically the U.S.). We choose providers carefully and ensure they meet stringent security standards.
We use industry-standard encryption for data transmission and storage, multi-factor authentication for system access, regular security audits, and restricted access protocols. Only staff members who need access to your files for legitimate work purposes can view them.
Generally, we keep client files for at least 10 years after a matter closes - that's the Law Society of British Columbia's minimum requirement. Some documents might be kept longer if there's ongoing relevance or potential future legal implications. When we do dispose of files, it's done securely through certified destruction services.
We don't go around blabbing about your business, but there are legitimate situations where we need to share information:
If you authorize us to share info with specific parties - like opposing counsel, regulatory agencies, or business partners - we'll do so as instructed.
We work with various professionals - expert witnesses, court reporters, investigators, IT support, accounting services. They might need access to relevant portions of your information to do their jobs, but they're bound by confidentiality agreements.
Sometimes we're legally required to disclose information - court orders, regulatory investigations, or situations involving potential harm. We'll always try to notify you first unless we're prohibited from doing so.
For complex international matters, we sometimes collaborate with lawyers in other jurisdictions or refer portions of a case to specialists. When that happens, we ensure they're subject to similar confidentiality obligations.
Here's where things get interesting. We specialize in international maritime and space law, which means your information might need to cross borders.
When we transfer data internationally, we use appropriate safeguards - standard contractual clauses, adequacy decisions recognized by Canadian authorities, or other approved mechanisms. The nature of admiralty law and aerospace regulation often requires coordinating with authorities and parties in multiple countries.
If you're concerned about data being transferred to a specific jurisdiction, let us know upfront so we can discuss alternatives or additional protections.
Under Canadian privacy law (PIPEDA) and various provincial legislation, you've got several rights regarding your personal information:
To exercise any of these rights, just reach out to us at contact@nexyrianodyssey.info or call (604) 555-8792.
Our website uses cookies - those little data files that websites store on your device. We're pretty minimal with them compared to most sites.
These are necessary for the website to function properly - things like keeping you logged into secure areas or remembering your language preferences.
We use analytics to understand how people interact with our site - which pages are popular, where visitors are coming from, how long they stay. This helps us improve the user experience and create better content.
Most browsers let you control or block cookies. Just know that disabling certain cookies might make parts of the website less functional. You can usually find cookie settings in your browser's preferences or settings menu.
Our website might link to external resources - regulatory agencies, industry organizations, legal research databases, or relevant news sources. Once you click through to another site, you're subject to their privacy policies, not ours.
We try to link only to reputable sources, but we can't control how other organizations handle your data. If you're clicking through to submit information on an external site, take a moment to review their privacy practices.
Our services aren't directed at children under 18, and we don't knowingly collect personal information from minors without parental consent. Given that we handle complex international maritime and aerospace legal matters, our typical clients are businesses and adult individuals.
If we discover we've accidentally collected information from a minor, we'll delete it promptly. If you're a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us right away.
Privacy laws and best practices evolve - especially in emerging areas like space law and digital maritime commerce. We'll update this policy periodically to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements.
When we make significant changes, we'll post a notice on our website and update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. For current clients, we'll also send a heads-up via email.
We encourage you to review this policy occasionally, especially if it's been a while since you last checked. Continuing to use our services after changes are posted means you accept the updated terms.
Got questions, concerns, or complaints about how we handle your privacy? We'd rather hear from you directly than have you worrying about it.

We'll respond to privacy inquiries within a reasonable timeframe - typically within 30 days, though complex requests might take a bit longer.
If you're not satisfied with our response, you've got the right to file a complaint with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada or your provincial privacy commissioner. But honestly, we'd appreciate the chance to address your concerns directly first.
While this privacy policy explains our general data practices, remember that communications with your lawyer are protected by attorney-client privilege. That's a separate legal protection that goes beyond privacy law - it means we can't disclose confidential client communications without your permission, except in very limited circumstances required by law or professional rules.
