Our Commitment to Your Privacy
Our Commitment to Your Privacy
The Canadian Repair Coalition ("CanRepair") is driven by community, transparency, and trust. As a federally-incorporated non-profit, we collect only the personal information we need to help you engage with our work; whether that is signing up for our newsletter, registering for an event, or becoming a member. We are not a commercial enterprise, and we do not sell or monetize your data.
Our privacy policy exists because, under Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), organizations that collect or handle personal information in the course of commercial activities must explain how they manage that information. While we do not operate for profit, we embrace these same principles as best practices: collecting data lawfully, keeping it secure, and being open about how it's used.
