It is iGuides Canada and AjaxPickering.ca's policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our website. This Privacy Policy applies to https://AjaxPickering.ca (hereinafter, "us", "we", or "https://AjaxPickering.ca"). We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting personally identifiable information you may provide us through the Website. We have adopted this privacy policy ("Privacy Policy") to explain what information may be collected on our Website, how we use this information, and under what circumstances we may disclose the information to third parties. This Privacy Policy applies only to information we collect through the Website and does not apply to our collection of information from other sources.

This Privacy Policy, together with the Terms and conditions posted on our Website, set forth the general rules and policies governing your use of our Website. Depending on your activities when visiting our Website, you may be required to agree to additional terms and conditions.

Children & Minimum Age

AjaxPickering.ca is intended for people aged 16 and older. You must be at least 16 to create an account or use any member feature. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under the age of 16. When you register we collect your date of birth solely to verify you meet this minimum age. If we learn that we have collected personal information from someone under 16, we will delete that account and its associated information. If you believe a child under 16 has provided us with personal information, please contact us at memberservices@ajaxpickering.ca.

To create an account we also require you to confirm your email address by clicking a verification link we send you; unconfirmed accounts are locked and are automatically deleted if not confirmed within 72 hours.

Retention And Account Deletion

You can close your account at any time from your account settings. When you do, your profile, posts, listings, recipes and photos are hidden from the site immediately, and your account is scheduled for permanent deletion 30 days later. During those 30 days you can sign in and cancel the deletion. We use this short window for two reasons: so a deletion made by mistake can be undone, and so that we can respond to a complaint, investigation or legal request about activity on the site before the records are gone.

If you would rather just step away for a while, you can deactivate instead. That hides everything and deletes nothing, and signing back in brings it all back.

After 30 days we permanently delete your content, your photos and your personal details. We keep a minimal record for 24 months confirming that an account existed, when it was created, when you agreed to our Terms, and any reports made about it. We keep this to defend legal claims within Ontario's two-year limitation period and to respond to lawful requests. It does not include your name, your posts, your messages or your photos.

Some records are kept longer, or indefinitely:

  • Payment and advertising records are kept for 7 years as required by the Canada Revenue Agency. Personal details in them are removed; the transaction is not.
  • Your email address stays on our do-not-contact list permanently. We cannot honour "never email me again" without remembering the address to suppress.
  • Reviews you wrote about businesses, sellers and recipes stay on the site with your name removed, because other members rely on them and they are about someone else rather than about you.
  • Messages you sent stay in the other person's inbox, shown as from a former member. Photos you sent are deleted.
  • Events you organized stay listed so that people planning to attend are not left guessing, and we take over managing them. You can choose to cancel them instead when you close your account.
  • If we are required to preserve records for an investigation or legal proceeding, deletion is paused until that ends. We will not use a hold for any other purpose.

Before you close your account you can download a copy of everything we hold about you, including your posts, messages, listings, reviews and sign-in history. You can also request a copy at any other time by writing to memberservices@ajaxpickering.ca.

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, AjaxPickering.ca collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. AjaxPickering.ca's purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how AjaxPickering.ca's visitors use its website. From time to time, AjaxPickering.ca may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

AjaxPickering.ca also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on https://AjaxPickering.ca blog posts. AjaxPickering.ca only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to AjaxPickering.ca's websites choose to interact with AjaxPickering.ca in ways that require AjaxPickering.ca to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that AjaxPickering.ca gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up for a blog at https://AjaxPickering.ca to provide a username and email address.

Security

The security of your Personal Information is important to us, but remember that 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 Personal Information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

Advertisements

Ads appearing on our website may be delivered to users by advertising partners, who may set cookies. These cookies allow the ad server to recognize your computer each time they send you an online advertisement to compile information about you or others who use your computer. This information allows ad networks to, among other things, deliver targeted advertisements that they believe will be of most interest to you. This Privacy Policy covers the use of cookies by AjaxPickering.ca and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers.

Links To External Sites

Our Service may contain links to external sites that are not operated by us. If you click on a third party link, you will be directed to that third party's site. We strongly advise you to review the Privacy Policy and terms and conditions of every site you visit.

We have no control over, and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies or practices of any third party sites, products or services.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

AjaxPickering.ca discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on AjaxPickering.ca's behalf or to provide services available at AjaxPickering.ca's website, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using AjaxPickering.ca's website, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. AjaxPickering.ca will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, AjaxPickering.ca discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when AjaxPickering.ca believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of AjaxPickering.ca, third parties or the public at large.

If you are a registered user of https://AjaxPickering.ca and have supplied your email address, AjaxPickering.ca may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what's going on with AjaxPickering.ca and our products. We primarily use our blog to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. AjaxPickering.ca takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.

Aggregated Statistics

AjaxPickering.ca may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its website. AjaxPickering.ca may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, AjaxPickering.ca does not disclose your personally-identifying information.

Affiliate Disclosure

This site uses affiliate links and does earn a commission from certain links. This does not affect your purchases or the price you may pay.

Cookies & Tracking

To enrich and perfect your online experience, AjaxPickering.ca uses "cookies" and similar technologies to keep the site working, understand how it is used and measure local advertising. A cookie is a small string of information that a website stores in your browser and that your browser sends back each time you return.

We group the cookies and tracking we use into four categories:

  • Strictly necessary – required for the site to function (sign-in, security and remembering your privacy choices). These are always on.
  • Analytics – helps us understand how the site is used so we can improve it (Microsoft Clarity). We do not sell this data.
  • Advertising – measures views of local advertiser banners so we can report performance to them.
  • Functional – remembers preferences such as region and layout for a smoother visit.

You are in control. When you first visit, a banner lets you accept all cookies, decline non-essential cookies, or choose exactly what to allow. You can change your choice at any time by selecting the cookie icon in the Echo toolbar on the edge of the page, or by using the button below. If you decline the Analytics or Advertising categories, we stop loading those scripts for you entirely. Your choice is saved for 12 months.

You may also set your browser to refuse cookies, with the drawback that certain features of AjaxPickering.ca may not function properly without them.

E-commerce

Those who engage in transactions with AjaxPickering.ca – by purchasing AjaxPickering.ca's services or products, are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, AjaxPickering.ca collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor's interaction with AjaxPickering.ca. AjaxPickering.ca does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.

Privacy Policy Changes

Although most changes are likely to be minor, AjaxPickering.ca may change its Privacy Policy from time to time, and in AjaxPickering.ca's sole discretion. AjaxPickering.ca encourages visitors to frequently check this page for any changes to its Privacy Policy. Your continued use of this site after any change in this Privacy Policy will constitute your acceptance of such change.
