We engage trusted third-party service providers to perform functions on our behalf, including cloud hosting, payment processing, email delivery, analytics, customer support, and marketing assistance. These providers have access to personal information only as necessary to perform their functions and are obligated to maintain confidentiality.
In the event of a merger, acquisition, reorganization, sale of assets, or bankruptcy, your personal information may be transferred to the successor entity, subject to the same privacy protections.
We may disclose your information when required by law, court order, or government regulation, or when we believe disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others, investigate fraud, or respond to legal requests.
We may share your information with third parties when you have given us explicit consent to do so.
We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. Our security practices include:
While we strive to protect your personal information, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security, but we continuously work to maintain and improve our security measures.
We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. Retention periods vary depending on the type of information and the purpose for which it was collected:
When personal information is no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymize it in accordance with our data retention and disposal policies.
Under PIPEDA and other applicable Canadian privacy laws, you have the following rights regarding your personal information:
You have the right to request access to the personal information we hold about you, including information about how it is used and with whom it has been shared.
You can request that we correct any inaccurate or incomplete personal information we hold about you.
You may request that we delete your personal information, subject to certain legal exceptions (e.g., legal obligations, legitimate business interests).
Where we rely on your consent to process personal information, you can withdraw that consent at any time. This will not affect the lawfulness of processing before the withdrawal.
You can opt-out of receiving marketing communications from us by clicking the "unsubscribe" link in our emails or contacting us directly.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at [email protected] or call +1 (416) 847-3291. We will respond to your request within 30 days and may require verification of your identity before processing your request.

If you believe we have collected information from a child, please contact us immediately.
Your personal information may be transferred to and processed in countries other than Canada, including the United States, where our servers and service providers are located. These countries may have different data protection laws than Canada. When we transfer your information internationally, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy and applicable laws.
