  • information collected by third-party websites or services that may be linked to or integrated with the Website;

When you submit forms, send inquiries, or otherwise interact with the Website, we may collect:

  • your name, professional title, and the organization you represent;
  • your email address, phone number, and mailing address;
  • the content of your message, inquiry, or application (including any attachments);

  • device and browser information (e.g., browser type, operating system, language);
  • IP address and approximate geographic location;
  • access times, pages viewed, time spent on pages, referring/exit pages;
  • information collected through cookies and similar technologies (see Section 9).

3.3 Information From Third Parties

We may receive limited information about you from third parties, including analytics providers, advertising platforms, and publicly available sources, to validate inquiries or to detect fraud.

4. How We Use Personal Information

We use the personal information we collect for the following purposes:

  • to respond to your inquiries, applications, or communications;
  • to evaluate prospective business relationships (advertisers, location hosts, partners);
  • to operate, maintain, and improve the Website and our services;
  • to send service announcements, security alerts, and, where permitted by law, marketing communications consistent with Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL);
  • to perform analytics, debugging, and research;
  • to detect and prevent fraud, abuse, and security incidents;
  • to comply with legal, regulatory, tax, and accounting obligations;
  • for any other purpose with your consent or as permitted or required by law.

We collect, use, and disclose personal information only for purposes that a reasonable person would consider appropriate in the circumstances.

6. How We Share Personal Information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share personal information in the following circumstances:

  • with our affiliates and brands (including Tribe26), as needed to respond to your inquiry or perform requested services;
  • with service providers acting on our behalf — including cloud hosting, analytics, communications, security, and customer-relationship-management providers — under contractual confidentiality and data-protection obligations;

  • in connection with a corporate transaction such as a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, bankruptcy, or sale of assets, subject to appropriate protections;
  • with your consent or at your direction.

7. Cross-Border Transfers

Personal information collected through the Website may be stored, processed, or accessed in Canada and in other countries, including the United States and other jurisdictions where our service providers operate. While in another country, information is subject to the laws of that country, which may differ from Canadian law and may permit access by foreign governmental authorities. We take contractual and organizational steps to require service providers to protect personal information at a level comparable to what we maintain ourselves.

8. Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy or as required or permitted by applicable law. Retention periods may vary based on the type of information and the context of collection. When information is no longer required, we delete or anonymize it in accordance with our internal retention policies.

9. Cookies and Similar Technologies

The Website uses cookies, software development kits (SDKs), pixels, local storage, and similar technologies to operate the Website, remember preferences, analyze usage, and deliver relevant content. You can manage cookies through your browser settings and, where required by law, through the cookie banner displayed on the Website. Disabling certain cookies may impair Website functionality.

10. Security

We implement reasonable technical, administrative, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information against loss, theft, and unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use, or modification, including encryption in transit, access controls, and regular security reviews. However, no method of transmission or storage is entirely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. In the event of a breach of security safeguards involving a real risk of significant harm, we will notify affected individuals and the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada in accordance with PIPEDA's breach-notification requirements.

  • file a complaint with us at privacy@tribe26.app and, if not resolved to your satisfaction, with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada at www.priv.gc.ca or the Office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner for British Columbia at www.oipc.bc.ca.

We will respond to verified requests within the timeframes required by applicable law (generally within 30 days under PIPEDA). We may need to verify your identity before responding.

12. Marketing Communications

Where permitted by law, we may send marketing emails or messages. You may opt out at any time by following the unsubscribe instructions in such communications. Marketing communications are sent in accordance with Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL).

14. Changes to This Privacy Policy

WE RESERVE THE RIGHT, AT ANY TIME, IN OUR SOLE DISCRETION, AND FOR ANY REASON OR NO REASON WHATSOEVER, TO UPDATE, MODIFY, REPLACE, OR SUPPLEMENT THIS PRIVACY POLICY.

The most current version will be posted on the Website with a revised "Last Updated" date. Where the changes are material, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to notify you through the Website, by email, or by other appropriate means before the changes take effect.
