Privacy Policy

Last Updated: July 2026

Your privacy matters here. This page explains what information PattiWithPassport.ca collects, why, and how it’s protected.

Information We Collect

When you subscribe to updates on this site, I collect your email address. I don’t collect names, phone numbers, or payment information directly — this site does not process payments.

Basic technical data (browser type, approximate location, pages visited) may be collected automatically through standard website analytics tools, to understand how readers use the site and to improve content.

How Your Information Is Used

Your email address is used solely to send you updates when new content is published on PattiWithPassport.ca. I do not sell, rent, or share your email address with third parties for marketing purposes.

Any analytics data collected is used in aggregate to understand site traffic and reader interests — never to identify you personally.

Email Communications (CASL Compliance)

In accordance with Canada’s Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL), you will only receive email communications from PattiWithPassport.ca if you have explicitly subscribed. Every email includes a clear unsubscribe option, and you can opt out at any time.

Third-Party Services

This site may use third-party tools (such as website hosting, email delivery, and analytics services) that process data on my behalf. These providers are held to their own privacy and security standards, and I choose partners who take data protection seriously.

Some links on this site are affiliate links, meaning a third party may track your click for commission purposes. This does not affect the price you pay. See the full Disclosure Statement for details on affiliate relationships.

Your Rights

Under PIPEDA, you have the right to know what personal information is held about you, request corrections, and request deletion. To exercise any of these rights, contact me directly.

Data Security

I take reasonable steps to protect any personal information collected through this site, including secure hosting and limited access to subscriber data.

Changes to This Policy

This policy may be updated periodically to reflect changes in how the site operates. The “Last Updated” date at the top reflects the most recent version.
