Privacy Policy

Periva Solutions Inc. (“Periva”, “we”, “us”) provides fleet management and telematics services to businesses in Canada and the United States. This policy explains what personal information we handle, why we handle it, and what choices you have.

It covers our website at periva.io, the Periva GPS platform at gps.periva.io and its driver portal, our API, and the sales and support conversations that go with them. Our consumer GPS tracker and app are covered by a separate Consumer Privacy Policy, published on periva.app.

Last updated November 2, 2026

1. Whose information this covers

Our responsibilities differ depending on whose information is involved.

Information we decide how to use

For visitors to periva.io, people who contact us or request a quote, newsletter subscribers, and the people who administer a customer account, we decide why and how the information is used. This policy governs that processing, and you can exercise your rights with us directly.

Information we handle on a customer's behalf

The data inside the Periva GPS platform belongs to the organization that operates the fleet. That customer decides which vehicles are tracked, which people get accounts, which features are switched on, what is recorded and how it is used. We process it on the customer's instructions under our agreement with them.

Customers are responsible for giving drivers and other individuals the notices, and obtaining the consents, that the law requires for vehicle tracking, driver monitoring and any camera recording.

If you are a driver or employee of a Periva customer and you want to access, correct or delete your information, or understand why your vehicle is tracked, please contact your employer first. They control that data. If you contact us instead, we will refer your request to them and help them respond.

2. Information we handle

Information you give us

  • Contact and company details you submit through our quote and contact forms, including name, company, email address, phone number, fleet size and fleet location.
  • Your email address if you subscribe to our newsletter.
  • The content of emails, calls, chat conversations and support requests you send us. We may record calls where the law permits.
  • Billing contacts and payment details. Card payments are processed by Stripe, and full card numbers never reach our systems.

Information in the Periva GPS platform

Handled on behalf of our customers, as described in section 1:

  • Vehicle location and movement, including GPS position, speed, heading, trips, stops and idling.
  • Vehicle diagnostics and health, such as engine data, fuel consumption and fault codes.
  • Driving events a customer chooses to monitor, such as harsh braking, speeding or crash detection.
  • Driver scores and rankings calculated from driving events, where a customer uses these features. The customer decides how to use them. Periva does not make decisions about drivers.
  • Camera footage, where a customer installs camera hardware and enables video features. This can include images of drivers, passengers and people near the vehicle, and audio where the customer enables it.
  • Account details for the people a customer gives access to, including name, email address, username, role and authentication credentials.
  • Emergency contacts that a user chooses to designate, including their name and contact details. We use them only to send the alerts the user has set up.
  • Device identifiers for the tracking hardware installed in a vehicle.
  • Vehicle details recorded when a vehicle is added to a fleet, such as its licence plate and the country and region where it is registered.
  • Application, security and audit logs recording activity in the platform and API.

This data travels from the tracking device in a vehicle over a cellular network to our servers. The device manufacturer's firmware management service and the connectivity provider that carries the traffic are listed on our subprocessors page.

We do not currently offer features that identify people from their facial or other biometric characteristics. If we introduce any, we will update this policy before they become available.

Information collected automatically

  • IP address, approximate location derived from it, browser and device information, and pages viewed.
  • Cookies and similar technologies, described in our Cookie Policy. Our business website does not use advertising cookies or advertising pixels.
  • Server and security logs generated when you use our website, the platform or the API.

3. Why we use it

  • To provide, operate, secure and support the Periva GPS platform and API for our customers.
  • To respond to enquiries, prepare quotes, and manage our relationship with customers and prospects.
  • To send service and account notifications, including alerts a customer has set up and notifications to emergency contacts a user has designated.
  • To send marketing communications where you have asked to receive them.
  • To understand how our website is used so we can improve it.
  • To detect, investigate and prevent fraud, abuse and security incidents.
  • To meet our legal, regulatory and contractual obligations.

Aggregated and de-identified data. As our customer agreements permit, we use platform data that has been aggregated and de-identified, so that it no longer identifies a customer, an individual or a vehicle, to improve our services, for benchmarking and analytics, and for product development. We use it internally, do not publish it, and do not attempt to re-identify it.

We do not sell personal information, and we do not use platform data to train AI models or to build advertising profiles.

5. Who we share it with

We do not sell, rent or trade personal information, and we do not share it for targeted advertising. We share it only in these circumstances:

  • Service providers. A small number of third-party providers host, secure, support and deliver our services, including cloud hosting, cellular connectivity, payment processing, email delivery, and customer support tools, including AI services that help us respond to enquiries. Each one is listed, with what it processes and where, on our subprocessors page. We give customers at least 30 days' notice before adding a provider that processes their data.
  • Our customers. Platform data is made available to the customer that owns it and to the users and integrations they authorize.
  • Legal and safety. Where we are required to by law or valid legal process, or where disclosure is necessary to investigate a security incident, enforce our agreements, or protect someone's safety. Where the law allows, we tell the affected customer about a legal demand for its data before we disclose it.
  • Business transfers. If we are involved in a merger, acquisition or sale of assets, information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to the protections in this policy.

6. Where it is stored

The Periva GPS platform and its backups are hosted in Canada, in the Amazon Web Services Canada (Central) region in Montréal. Under our customer agreements, we do not move platform data outside Canada except to providers listed on our subprocessors page, as required by law, or with the customer's consent.

This marketing website is separate from the platform and is hosted in the United States, as is the database holding the quote requests and newsletter sign-ups submitted through it. Traffic to our website and platform passes through Cloudflare, a security and content delivery network that processes requests on servers around the world, including in the United States. Some of our communication and support tools, including AI tools, are hosted in the United States. The subprocessors page sets out the location of each provider.

Information stored or processed in another country is subject to the laws of that country, and may be accessible to its courts, law enforcement and national security authorities. Where information crosses a border, we protect it through the data protection terms in our contract with each provider.

7. How long we keep it

  • Location, sensor and driving data from tracking devices
    How long we keep it
    24 months from when it is recorded, then deleted or anonymized
  • Vehicle, driver and user records
    How long we keep it
    For as long as the customer uses our services
  • Platform data after a customer agreement ends
    How long we keep it
    Available for export for 30 days, then deleted in our ordinary deletion cycle, normally within 90 days
  • Enquiries and quote requests

    As long as needed to respond, and up to 2 years afterwards as a business record
  • Newsletter subscriptions
    How long we keep it
    Until you unsubscribe
  • API request logs
    How long we keep it
    90 days
  • Backups
    How long we keep it

  • Other logs
    How long we keep it
    On a rolling basis, for security and troubleshooting

We keep information longer only where a law, a regulator, or an actual or expected legal claim requires it.

8. How we protect it

We use safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the information, including:

  • Encryption of information in transit to and from our website, platform and API, with HTTPS enforced.
  • Encryption of platform data and its backups at rest.
  • Passwords stored using a one-way hashing algorithm designed to resist cracking. We cannot see your password.
  • Limits on repeated failed login attempts, and logging of successful and failed logins.
  • Multi-factor authentication for Periva staff and administrator accounts with access to customer data.
  • Databases that are not reachable from the internet, and a web application firewall in front of the platform.
  • Access controls that limit who inside Periva can reach customer data.

No system is completely secure. If we confirm unauthorized access to customer data, we notify the affected customer without undue delay, and in any event within 72 hours. Where a breach affects personal information we control and creates a real risk of significant harm, we will notify the affected individuals and the relevant regulators as required by law.

9. Your rights and choices

Subject to the limits in applicable law, you can ask us to:

  • Confirm what personal information we hold about you and give you access to it.
  • Correct information that is inaccurate or incomplete.
  • Delete information we no longer have a legitimate reason to keep.
  • Stop sending you marketing.
  • Explain how we handle your information and who we have shared it with.

Residents of US states with comprehensive privacy laws also have the right to receive a copy of their information in a portable format, to appeal if we decline a request, and not to be treated differently for exercising their rights. If we deny your appeal, you can contact your state attorney general.

Write to [email protected]. We respond within the time your law allows, which in Canada is normally 30 days and in most US states 45 days. We may need to verify your identity first. If your request concerns platform data held on a customer's behalf, see section 1.

If you are not satisfied with our response, you can complain to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada, or the Office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner for British Columbia. If you are in the EEA or the UK, you can complain to your local supervisory authority.

10. Children's information

Our website and platform are intended for businesses and the people who work for them. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with information, contact us and we will delete it.

11. Changes to this policy

We update this policy when our practices change. The date at the top shows when it was last revised. If a change materially affects how we handle your personal information, we will take reasonable steps to tell you before it takes effect.

12. Contact us

Our legal team is accountable for the personal information in our care and for our compliance with this policy.
