Community-driven, not official. Around Bridgwater is run by residents and is not affiliated with the City of Winnipeg, any developer or any property-management company. How this works

Privacy

Privacy & unsubscribe

A short, plain-language explanation of what we collect when you sign up or send us a listing update — and how to leave the list at any time.

Who runs this site

Around Bridgwater is a community initiative operated by Office Eight. It is not an official City of Winnipeg, developer or property-management website, and it does not speak for any business listed here.

Office Eight is the operator responsible for the information collected through this site and for the emails sent from it. You can reach the team at hello@officeeight.co.

What we collect

Newsletter signup: your name, email address, the audience you chose (resident, business owner, agent or landlord), the topics you selected, and the date you gave consent.

Listing or service request: your business name, contact name, email address, category, what you asked for, and any notes you write.

We do not ask for payment details, and we do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. A small amount of information (such as your saved listings) is kept only in your own browser and never sent to us.

Why we collect it

To send the monthly newsletter you asked for, to reply to listing corrections and service requests, and to keep a record that consent was given.

We never sell your information, and we do not share it with the businesses in the directory unless you asked us to connect you.

How long we keep it

Newsletter records are kept until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete them. Listing and service requests are kept while the request is open and for up to 24 months afterwards so we can see the history of a listing.

Where it is stored

Submissions are stored in a private database that only the volunteer team can read. Form submissions are not publicly readable, and the site itself cannot list or display them.

Unsubscribe

Leaving the list, or deleting your details

  • Every newsletter includes a one-click unsubscribe link at the bottom. Using it stops all future emails immediately.
  • You can also email hello@officeeight.co with the subject “Unsubscribe” and we will remove you, usually within a few days.
  • To have your record deleted entirely — including a listing or service request — email the same address and ask for deletion. We will confirm once it is done.
  • To see or correct what we hold about you, ask for a copy in the same way. Requests are handled by volunteers, so please allow a week.
