Privacy Policy
Last updated: November 10, 2026
This policy explains how Shergill Nail Lounge, run by Harsh Shergill in North Delta, BC ("I", "me"), handles personal information through this website and when you book an appointment. In short: this website sets no cookies, has no forms or accounts, does not track you and never sells your information.
Who is responsible
Harsh Shergill is responsible for personal information under British Columbia's Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA) and, where it applies, the federal Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA). Contact: h22shergill@gmail.com or a direct message to @shergill.nail.lounge on Instagram.
What information is collected and why
When you book. Appointments are booked by direct message on Instagram. I receive what you choose to send (such as your name, Instagram account, the service and the dates you want) and the details of your deposit payment. I use them only to schedule your appointment, confirm the deposit and contact you about it. If you ask for the birthday discount, I look at an ID at the appointment to check your birthday month. I do not copy or keep it.
When you visit this website. The website has no forms, logins or payments. The hosting provider (Cloudflare) processes basic technical data needed to deliver the pages and protect them from abuse, such as your IP address, browser type and the time of the request. This data is not used to identify you or build a profile.
Cookies and similar technologies
This website sets no cookies and uses no analytics, advertising pixels or session recording. It may store one small preference in your own browser:
| Name | Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
theme | Local storage (first party) | Remembers if you picked light or dark mode. Only saved when your pick differs from your device setting. | Until you clear your browser data |
Links to other services
Buttons on this site open other services: Instagram (to book and follow), email, and on the links page some online stores (SHEIN, True Scents, Evry Jewels, Limitless Jewellery). Some store links are affiliate links, which means I may earn a small commission if you buy through them, at no extra cost to you. Nothing from these services is embedded in this website, so they receive no information from it until you click. Once you are on their sites, they may use cookies, and their own privacy policies apply. Instagram is run by Meta, and some of these services may store information outside Canada.
Sharing
I do not sell, rent or trade personal information. It is only shared with the services needed to run the business (Instagram for messages, your bank or Interac for e-transfers, and the website host) or when the law requires it.
How long it is kept
Booking messages and payment records are kept only as long as needed for your appointments and for tax and accounting obligations, and then deleted.
Your rights
- Ask what personal information I hold about you and get a copy.
- Ask for a correction if something is wrong.
- Withdraw your consent, for example by asking me to delete our messages, unless I have to keep a record by law.
Send your request by email or Instagram message. I will answer within 30 business days. If you are not satisfied with the answer, you can contact the Office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner for British Columbia (oipc.bc.ca) or, where PIPEDA applies, the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada (priv.gc.ca).
Children
This website is not directed to children, and I do not knowingly collect information from children through it.
Security
The website is served only over encrypted HTTPS and has no login, database or file uploads. I keep the information I hold to the minimum needed for your appointment.
Changes
If something changes how information is handled (for example online booking or analytics), this page is updated before it goes live, with a new date at the top.
