We may disclose personal information to:

- Advertising and analytics partners (where consented or as permitted)
- Affiliates or in connection with a business transaction (merger, sale of assets)
- Legal authorities when required by law or to protect rights, safety, or property
- Other parties with your consent
We require service providers to protect the information and use it only for the specified purposes. We do not allow them to sell or use the data for their own purposes beyond the contracted services.

We [do / do not] sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. [Update accurately.] Sensitive personal information is used only for permitted limited purposes and is not sold/shared for additional purposes without the right to limit.
7. International Data Transfers
As a Canadian company, personal information may be processed or stored in Canada, the United States, the EU/EEA, or other countries. When transferring personal data from the EU/EEA/UK, we use appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs), adequacy decisions, or other lawful mechanisms. For transfers from Canada, we ensure comparable protection through contractual means and due diligence, consistent with PIPEDA.
8. Data Retention
We retain personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes described, to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Retention periods vary by data type and purpose (e.g., account data while active + [X] years; transaction records per tax laws; analytics logs for shorter periods). When no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymize the data.
9. Security
We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration. These include encryption in transit and at rest where appropriate, access controls, employee training, and regular reviews. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security.
