About Kohabit

A 100% Canadian platform for condo management. Built here, hosted here, designed for you.

Why Choose a Canadian Product?

Choosing a Canadian product means choosing proximity, local understanding, and support for our local economy. Kohabit was specifically designed to meet the needs of Canadian condos, taking into account our regulations, legal realities, and culture.

Unlike international solutions that try to adapt to the Canadian market, Kohabit was born here, conceived here, and developed here. We understand the unique challenges faced by small condo boards in Canada, whether in financial management, communication, or regulatory compliance.

By choosing Kohabit, you're not only supporting a local business, but you're also benefiting from a product that speaks your language, understands your context, and evolves according to your real needs.

Why Host in Canada?

Choosing Canadian data hosting means sovereignty, compliance, and trust. At Kohabit, all information is stored exclusively on servers located in Canada — your data never leaves the country.

Built for Canadian Compliance

Your data is handled in accordance with Canadian privacy laws (notably PIPEDA). If you operate in Québec, our approach also takes Law 25 requirements into account.

Note: This is general information and does not constitute legal advice.

Sovereignty & Legal Clarity

Local hosting keeps your data under Canadian jurisdiction, with clear rules and local recourse. You benefit from transparent accountability and straightforward contractual commitments.

Privacy by Design

Our rule is simple: your data belongs to you.

  • No data resale.
  • Minimal, purpose-bound collection.
  • Only essential operational analytics (anonymized where applicable).

Performance & Local Support

Canadian hosting improves latency and response times for Canadian users. Our team is local, which strengthens support, regulatory alignment, and overall trust.

Long-term Commitment

Hosting in Canada supports the local tech ecosystem and promotes responsible, sustainable practices.

Bottom line: Kohabit is built by Canadians for Canadian communities — with Canada-only hosting and a non-negotiable privacy ethic.

Why It's Important to Protect Your Data

Data protection is not a luxury, it's a fundamental right. In an era where data breaches regularly make headlines, choosing a platform that takes privacy seriously has never been more important.

At Kohabit, we adopted a "privacy-first" approach from the start:

Minimal Collection: We only collect data strictly necessary for the platform to function. No excessive tracking, no superfluous data.
No Resale: We never sell, and will never sell, your data to third parties. This is a founding promise of our company.
Total Transparency: You know exactly what data we collect, why we collect it, and how it's used.
End-to-End Encryption: All communications are secured and your sensitive data is encrypted.
User Control: You have complete control over your data and can export or delete it at any time.

Your trust is our most precious asset. We build Kohabit on this foundation of trust, knowing that without it, we have nothing.

Benjamin Desmarez, Kohabit founder

Benjamin Desmarez

Condo Owner & Founder

I'm Benjamin Desmarez, a condo owner passionate about simple solutions that improve everyday life.

I created Kohabit because I saw volunteer condo boards around me doing their best, but without tools adapted to their reality. Existing solutions are often designed for large organizations, not for small communities like ours.

With Kohabit, I wanted to build something different: a local, secure platform centered on people — not on data. A tool that truly helps condo owners communicate better, organize themselves, and live together.
