Version: October 26, 2021 Privacy Policy

Your privacy is very important to the Montreal Christmas Village Non-Profit Organization.

 

We have therefore developed a Privacy Policy that addresses how we collect, use, disclose, transfer and store your information.

Please take a few moments to familiarize yourself with our privacy practices and to send us any questions you may have.

Collection of information

Personal information is defined as data that can be used to uniquely identify or contact an individual. You may be required to provide your personal information as soon as you contact the Montreal Christmas Village NPO. You do not have to provide us with the personal information we ask for, but if you choose not to provide it to us, we will in many cases be unable to provide you with our products or services or access your requests. If you participate in a lottery, contest, or similar promotion, we may use the information provided as part of administering these programs.

We may also collect data in a form that does not allow for direct association with a particular individual. We may collect, use, transfer and disclose non-personal information, regardless of the purpose of this information sharing. Here are some examples of non-personal information that we collect and how we may use:

  • We may collect information such as profession, language, postal code, area code, unique device identifier, referral, location and time zone where a The Montreal Christmas Village NPO product is being used to better understand customer behaviour and improve our products, services and media advertising.
  • We may also collect information about customer activities on our website and other platforms where we are present. This information is aggregated and used to help us provide more useful information to our customers as well as help us improve our projects. Aggregated data is considered non-personal information for the purposes of this Privacy Policy.

If we combine non-personal information and personal information, the combined information is considered personal information as long as the association continues.

Cookies and other technologies

The website, online services, interactive applications, emails and advertising media of The Montreal Christmas Village NPO are likely to use “cookies” and other technologies. These technologies help us better understand user behaviour, tell us which parts of our website are the most visited, and make it easy to measure the effectiveness of advertising media and web searches. We treat information collected by cookies and other technologies as non-personal information. However, to the extent that Internet Protocol (IP) addresses and similar identifiers are considered personal information under local law, we also consider these identifiers to be personal information. Similarly, to the extent that non-personal information is associated with personal information, we consider the combined information to be personal information under this Privacy Policy.

 

The Montreal Christmas Village NPO and its partners also use cookies and other technologies to store personal information when you use our website,

online services and apps. Our goal, in these cases, is to make your experience with the Montreal Christmas Village NPO as practical and personal

as possible.

As this is the case for most websites, we collect some information automatically and keep it in log files. This information includes Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, browser type and language, ISP, reference and output pages, operating system, date and time as well as course data. We use this information

to understand and analyse trends, administer the site, find out more about user behaviour on the site, improve our products and services, and gather demographic information about our customer base as a whole. The Montreal Christmas Village NPO can use this information in marketing and

advertising services.

Third parties

The Montreal Christmas Village NPO websites, products, applications and services may contain links to third party websites, products and services.

Our products and services may also use or offer third party products and services. Information collected by third parties, including location data or contact information, is governed by their own privacy practices. We encourage you to review the privacy practices of these third parties.

 

We will not sell the personal information we have collected to third parties.

Our entire organization's commitment to your privacy

To ensure that your personal information is secure, we communicate our privacy and security guidelines to employees, associates and volunteers of the Montreal Christmas Village NPO and ensure the strict application of confidentiality safeguards within the organization.
