At Stand Up For Canada, we are committed to protecting your personal information and complying with all applicable privacy laws in Canada, including the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), relevant provincial legislation, and Canada’s Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL).

Purpose

This Privacy Policy outlines how Stand Up For Canada (“we,” “our,” or “the Site”) collects, uses, discloses, and protects personal information collected through our website, digital campaigns, and any associated platforms.

What Personal Information We Collect

We may collect the following personal information:

• First and last name
• Email address
• Postal code
• IP address, browser type, and device identifiers (via tracking tools)

We collect information in two ways:

• Directly from you, when you fill out a form, subscribe to a newsletter, sign a petition, or contact us.
• Automatically, through tracking technologies like cookies, pixels, and tags. This includes tools such as Google Analytics, which gather data such as IP address, device type, and browsing behavior to help us understand user preferences and improve our website.

How We Use Your Information

We use your information to:

• Send updates, newsletters, and campaign information
• Respond to inquiries and provide support
• Understand user behavior and improve our content and website functionality
• Deliver relevant content and advertising

We only use your information for the purposes stated at the time of collection, unless otherwise permitted by law or with your additional consent.

Consent

By using our website or submitting personal information, you provide your consent to our collection, use, and disclosure of that information as described in this Privacy Policy. You may withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us at info@standupforcanada.org. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of data collected prior to withdrawal.

Disclosure of Your Information

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. Your information may be disclosed:

• To service providers and trusted partners who assist us in operating our website, managing communications, or analyzing data. These third parties are contractually bound to protect your data.
• To coalition partners, in aggregated and anonymized form only.
• When required by law or lawful request by public authorities.

If any personal information is transferred outside of Canada (e.g., to service providers in the U.S.), it may be subject to the laws of that jurisdiction. We take appropriate measures to ensure your data is protected.

Safeguards and Data Security

We implement appropriate physical, administrative, and technical safeguards to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, or misuse. These include secure servers, encryption, access controls, and privacy training for our team.

Data Retention

We retain your personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by law. When no longer needed, data is securely deleted or anonymized.

Your Rights

You have the right to:

• Access your personal information
• Request corrections to your personal information
• Withdraw your consent
• Request deletion of your information
• Inquire whether your data has been disclosed and to whom

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at info@standupforcanada.org. We will respond within 30 days.

If you are located in Québec, you also have the right to be informed about any automated decision-making involving your data. We do not use automated profiling or decision-making at this time.

CASL Compliance

We comply with Canada’s Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL). We will only send electronic communications if you have provided express or implied consent. All emails include an unsubscribe link, and you may opt out at any time.

Cookies and Analytics

We use cookies and tracking technologies, including Google Analytics and Meta Pixel, to:

• Monitor and analyze website performance
• Understand user behavior
• Deliver targeted advertisements and measure campaign effectiveness

You can disable cookies through your browser settings or opt out of tracking by adjusting your preferences in cookie banners (if available).
