Privacy at Canada Rate Lab
This policy explains the categories of information that may be processed when you use CanadaRateLab.com and how the site intends to handle analytics, cookies and advertising.
Information generated when you visit the site
Like most websites, the hosting infrastructure may process technical information needed to deliver and secure the site, such as IP address, browser and device information, requested pages, timestamps and error or security logs.
Information you choose to provide
If Canada Rate Lab adds a general contact form or newsletter in the future, information you enter would be processed for the purpose described beside that form. The site does not require users to create an account to read insurance content or use the current calculators.
Analytics
Canada Rate Lab may use analytics services to understand how visitors find and use the site, measure page performance and improve content. Analytics services can use cookies or similar technologies and may process information such as device, approximate location, referral source and site activity.
Google AdSense and advertising cookies
Canada Rate Lab intends to use Google AdSense as its advertising platform. Google and its advertising partners may use cookies or similar technologies to serve, measure and limit advertisements, detect invalid traffic and, where permitted, personalize advertising. Appropriate consent controls will be implemented where required before non-essential advertising cookies are used.
Cookies
Cookies are small files or browser storage entries used for functions such as security, analytics, preferences and advertising measurement. Where required by applicable law, Canada Rate Lab will provide consent choices for non-essential cookies.
Third-party websites
Canada Rate Lab links to regulators, governments, insurers and other external information sources. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies. Following an external link may allow that site to collect information independently of Canada Rate Lab.
Data retention and security
Information should be retained only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, legal obligations, security, fraud prevention or dispute resolution. No internet service can guarantee absolute security, but reasonable technical and organizational measures should be used to protect site systems and stored information.
Policy changes
This privacy policy may change when analytics, Google AdSense, consent-management tools, newsletters or contact features are activated or materially changed. The update date at the top of the page will be revised when material changes are published.
