Effective Date: 01/01/18
Last Updated: 02/01/26

WalkSafe (“we,” “us,” “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect personal information through our website [walksafenow.com] (the “Site”) and related communications.

This policy is intended to comply with applicable Canadian privacy laws, including the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and applicable provincial privacy legislation.

1) What We Collect

Depending on how you use the Site, we may collect:

A. Information you provide

• Name

• Email address

• Phone number

• Company/organization (if provided)

• Message content (contact forms, support requests)

• Any other information you choose to submit

B. Automatically collected information (website analytics)

• IP address

• Device identifiers and browser type

• Operating system

• Pages viewed, time spent, clicks, referring URLs

• Approximate location derived from IP (city/region level)

We may use cookies and similar technologies (see Section 6).

C. Location Data (Important note)

If WalkSafe offers services that use location (e.g., mobile app features), precise geolocation may only be collected with your consent, and only as necessary for the feature you enable. The Site itself typically does not need precise location.

2) How We Use Information

We use personal information to:

• respond to inquiries and provide customer support;

• provide and improve the Site and Services;

• send service updates or marketing communications (where permitted and with required consent);

• analyze usage and performance of the Site;

• protect against fraud, misuse, and security threats;

• comply with legal obligations.

3) Legal Bases / Consent (Canada)

We generally collect, use, and disclose personal information with your knowledge and consent, except where permitted or required by law. You may withdraw consent at any time, subject to legal and contractual restrictions.

4) How We Share Information

We may share personal information:

• with service providers who help us operate (hosting, analytics, email delivery, customer support tools);

• with professional advisors (legal, accounting) as needed;

• where required by law, regulation, subpoena, court order, or to protect rights and safety;

• in connection with a business transaction (merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets), subject to confidentiality and lawful handling.

We do not sell your personal information.

5) Data Storage and Cross-Border Transfers

Your personal information may be stored or processed in Canada or other jurisdictions where our service providers operate. When information is processed outside Canada, it may be subject to the laws of that jurisdiction. We take reasonable steps to ensure appropriate safeguards.

6) Cookies and Analytics

We may use cookies, pixels, and similar technologies to:

• operate the Site;

• remember preferences;

• measure traffic and engagement.

You can control cookies through browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect Site functionality.

7) Marketing Communications (CASL)

If we send commercial electronic messages, we will do so in compliance with Canada’s Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL). You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in the message or by contacting us.

8) Retention

We retain personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes described or as required by law. When no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymize it.

9) Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect personal information. However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

10) Your Rights (Access and Correction)

You may request access to your personal information and ask us to correct inaccuracies, subject to legal exceptions. To make a request, contact us using the information below.

11) Children’s Privacy

The Site is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, contact us to request deletion.

12) Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Updates will be posted with a revised “Last Updated” date.
