You have some choices when it comes to online behavioural advertising: We adhere to the Digital Advertising Alliance Self-Regulatory Principles for Online Behavioural Advertising and the Digital Advertising Alliance of Canada’s Canadian Self-Regulatory Principles for Online Behavioural Advertising. DAA’s principles are available: https://youradchoices.com/principles and DAA Canada’s principles available: https://assets.youradchoices.ca/pdf/DAAC-ThePrinciples.pdf.
For more information, including how to opt out of having your online behavior collected for advertising purposes or to exercise choice for companies participating in the DAA tool, please see https://youradchoices.com/. Choices you make are both browser and device-specific.
DO NOT TRACKOur website currently does not respond to Do Not Track signals in browsers. While we collect personal information from you as described in this Policy, we do not collect personal information from you to monitor your online activities across third party websites or online services (also known as behavioral advertising).
Third parties that have content embedded on our website (such as buttons, widgets, and other embedded features or content) may set Cookies on a user’s browser or obtain information about the fact that you visited our website from a certain IP address. Our service providers may also collect personal information as described in the section above through the use of an embedded button or similar technology. We do not authorize third parties to collect any other personal information from our website unless you provide it to them directly.
GENERAL SECURITY & RETENTIONWe protect your personal information using commercially reasonable physical, organizational and technical measures. To guard against unauthorized access to your data, we use the latest encryption technologies, implement rigorous password protections, secure our premises and place limits on the number of people who have access to your information.
YOUR USER ACCOUNT & PASSWORDIf you have registered as a member, you are responsible for the security of your password used to login to your user account. Please notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your user account or any other breach of security relating to your account. CanadaWide Sports will not be liable for any loss or damage arising out of your failure to comply with this section. You may be issued a new password or occasionally be required to change your password. We encourage you to create a secure password. The Sign Out link is always available on the top right side of your screen, in the Account dropdown.

RETENTION OF INFORMATIONWe only retain your personal information as long as reasonably necessary for us to complete our dealings with you, or as may be required by law, whichever is longer. If you want to delete your account entirely, please see the section above or contact us at the details below.
REVIEWING AND CHANGING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATIONYou have a right to review any of the information that we hold about you and to contact us in order to learn about how we have used it or to whom we have disclosed it. Subject to any exceptions prescribed by law, you can access and correct your personal information and challenge the accuracy and completeness of the information we have about you. We may deny access when required or authorized by law. For example, we may deny access when granting access would have an unreasonable impact on other people’s privacy or when necessary to protect our confidential commercial information and the requested information cannot be severed from the balance of the record in which it is contained. If we deny your request for access to, or refuse a request to correct information, we shall explain why.
If you have a user account, you can review and change the personal information in your member profile at any time. To do that, click the account link at the top of any page.
WE DON’T COLLECT PERSONAL INFORMATION FROM MINORSIt is our policy not to knowingly collect personal information from individuals under the age of 13 without verifiable parental consent. If you are a parent or guardian and you suspect that your child may have submitted personal information to us, please contact us at [email protected]. If we become aware that a child under 13 has provided us with personal information, we will strive to delete such information from our servers as soon as possible.
In general, we collect the same information from children that we collect from other users of our websites, and we use and share such information for the same purposes. We will not knowingly require a child to disclose more information than is reasonably necessary to participate in an activity. If at any time a parent or guardian wishes to access, correct, delete, or control the disclosure of personal information provided by his or her child, he or she should contact us at [email protected].
