Third-Party Services
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC, to analyse how visitors use the Site. Google Analytics collects information such as how often users visit the Site, what pages they visit, and what other sites they used prior to arriving at the Site. We use this information solely to improve the Site.
Google Analytics collects only the IP address assigned to you on the date you visit the Site, rather than your name or any other identifying information. We do not combine the information collected through Google Analytics with personally identifiable information.
Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics about your visits to the Site is restricted by the Google Analytics Terms of Service and the Google Privacy Policy. You may prevent Google Analytics from recognising you on return visits by disabling cookies in your browser, or by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on available at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

Google Search Console
We use Google Search Console, a service provided by Google LLC, to monitor and maintain the Site’s presence in Google Search results. Google Search Console does not collect personally identifiable information from Site visitors. It provides aggregated data about how our content appears in search results.
Third-Party Links and Affiliate Partners
The Site contains links to third-party websites, including websites operated by our affiliate partners. These third-party sites have separate and independent privacy policies. We have no responsibility or liability for the content, privacy practices, or activities of these linked sites.
When you click an affiliate link on the Site and visit a third-party website, that website’s own privacy policy will govern the collection and use of your information. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of every website you visit.
Cookies
We use the following categories of cookies on the Site:
Strictly Necessary Cookies: These cookies are essential for the Site to function and cannot be switched off. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as setting your privacy preferences.
Analytics Cookies: These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of the Site. All information collected by these cookies is aggregated and therefore anonymous.
Third-Party Cookies: Certain third-party services we use, including Google Analytics, may set their own cookies on your device. These are governed by the respective third-party’s privacy policy.
You may control and manage cookies through your browser settings. Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of the website.
Data Retention
We retain automatically collected log and analytics data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy or as required by applicable law. Aggregated and anonymized analytics data may be retained indefinitely, as it cannot be used to identify individual users.
Data Security
We implement reasonable and appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect the information we process against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
Children’s Privacy
The Site is not directed to individuals under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you become aware that a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us using the details below. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child under 13 without verification of parental consent, we will take steps to remove that information.
Your Privacy Rights
As a visitor located in Canada, you have rights under PIPEDA, including the right to:
Request access to any personal information we hold about you. Request correction of any inaccurate personal information. Withdraw consent to the collection or use of your personal information, subject to legal or contractual restrictions.

As the Site does not collect personally identifiable information directly from users, these rights are unlikely to be applicable in practice. However, we remain committed to honoring these rights to the fullest extent required by applicable law.
