Privacy
789 Canada is an independent directory of websites and services relevant to Canada. This notice concerns the directory; external services have their own privacy practices.
Browsing and searches
You can browse the directory without creating an account. The directory does not provide user accounts, public comments, document uploads, advertising profiles or a newsletter.
Your browser sends the network information needed to request pages and resources. That information may be processed to deliver and protect the service. Some resources are shared with other 789.site pages. Requesting those resources also involves a network connection. A static website still involves these communications.
The directory search runs in your browser using the selected language's index. The local search function does not submit its search words to a directory search server. A web search is different: when you submit a search to the selected external engine, your browser sends your search to that provider. Its terms and privacy notice apply.
The directory does not request your precise location or automatically query external search suggestions. Opening an external listing connects your browser to the destination. We do not control that service's collection, cookies, account requirements or security.
Preferences on your device
Theme, language and search-engine preferences may be stored in your browser. These choices are not an account and are not synchronized by the directory between your devices. Browser settings, private browsing and extensions may affect whether preferences can be saved. You can remove saved choices through your browser's site-data settings.
The directory does not use advertising or audience-profiling cookies. Any necessary delivery or security technology must be limited to its delivery or security purpose. Browser storage is not the same technology as cookies.
Messages and rights requests
If you choose to contact us, we receive your reply address and the information you include. We use relevant information to respond, investigate a correction or rights concern, and document its handling. Please send only what is needed. Do not send passwords, payment credentials, social insurance numbers, medical files or identity documents with an initial message.
We limit information to the purposes for which it is needed and applicable legal obligations. Technical protection and correspondence handling may involve service providers and processing outside your province or Canada. We do not promise that all processing occurs in Canada. We do not sell visitor personal information or use your local preferences for behavioural advertising.
Depending on the law that applies, you may have rights to access or correct your personal information, withdraw consent, request deletion or obtain a portable copy. These rights can have legal limits. Use the contact control on this page and identify the relevant activity and approximate date. We may request proportionate information to verify a request, without asking for unnecessary documents. We respond within the applicable legal period and explain material limits.
You may also contact the appropriate privacy regulator. Contacting the directory does not remove that right. We cannot exercise a request against an external service on your behalf.
Changes
We update this notice when the directory's practices change. An additional feature requiring notice or consent must satisfy that requirement before the relevant processing begins. Using the directory does not subscribe you to marketing or consent to unrelated processing.
Canadian privacy law and complaints
PIPEDA and applicable provincial privacy legislation have different coverage requirements. Depending on the activity and jurisdiction, you may have rights to information, access and correction, to withdraw consent, and to complain to the responsible privacy regulator. Quebec, Alberta and British Columbia have provincial private-sector privacy rules; this notice does not substitute a single federal rule for all provincial requirements.
Use the contact below to identify the activity and request. Applicable response periods, verification limits and statutory remedies remain available. You may contact the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada or the relevant provincial regulator without first giving up any other right.
