This page explains what information Tongue Depressor collects through this website, why, and what you can do about it. Last updated October 14, 2026.
Who we are
Tongue Depressor (“we”) supplies wooden tongue depressors, wax spatulas and stirrers. Sales and support are in Toronto, Canada. For anything in this policy, write to info@tonguedepressor.net.
What we collect
- Quote request form. Your name, company, e-mail address, phone number (optional), the product, quantity, delivery country, sterilization and printing preferences, and any message you write.
- E-mail, phone and WhatsApp. Whatever you send us when you contact us directly. WhatsApp is operated by WhatsApp (Meta) under its own terms. We see your number and your messages.
- Campaign information. If you arrive from a link that carries parameters such as utm_source, your browser keeps them in session storage during your visit. We send them with your quote request so we know which campaign brought you.
- Technical data. Our hosting provider records standard server data (IP address, browser, pages requested) to run and secure the site.
Why we use it
We use your details to answer your request, prepare a quote, produce and deliver an order, keep business records, and protect the site from spam. We do not sell your information. We send e-mail only in reply to your request, and we contact you about anything else only if you agree.
For visitors in the European Union, the legal basis is the preparation of a quote at your request (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR) and our legitimate interest in running and securing this site and keeping business records (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR). For visitors in Canada, we rely on your consent, which you give when you send us a request.
Who receives it
Our manufacturing partner in Turkey may receive the details of your order (company, product, quantity, destination and artwork) so that it can be produced and shipped. Our website hosting and e-mail providers process data on our behalf. Shipping companies receive delivery details. Because of this, your information may be processed in Canada, Turkey, the European Union and other countries where these providers operate.
How long we keep it
We keep quote requests for as long as we need them to deal with your request and for our business records. You can ask us to delete yours at any time.
