This Policy explains what personal information we collect, how we use and share it, how long we keep it, the choices you have (including cookies), and how to contact us. It applies to visitors, account holders, and customers of our website.
We send marketing communications only with your express consent under the Canadian Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL). Every marketing email includes an unsubscribe link. Transactional emails (e.g., order updates) are not affected.
Our site is not directed to children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect their personal information. If you believe a child has provided data to us, please contact us and we will remove it.
