We value your privacy and want you to feel comfortable when visiting our website (www.sustainablemilton.ca) and attending our events. This Privacy Policy will explain what information we collect on our website, how we use it, and under what circumstances we may disclose it to third parties. This policy relates to our use of any personal information collected from you via the following:

What information we collect, and why.
Our website does not collect any identifiable information, such as user data like IP addresses and browser types. However if you attempt to log in to our website, your IP address will be collected for security purposes.
We do collect your personal information when you provide it to us. This occurs when you email us, fill out a form on our website, and register for an event through a third party such as Eventbrite. We may also collect personal information when you meet with us in person. The type of information that we collect varies based on your interaction with us. This may include, but is not limited to:
- Name
- Email address
- Date of birth
- Your payment information (if you pay for a membership)
- Any membership purchase or event attendance history
- Other personal information that you choose to provide to us electronically, over telephone or in person
How do we use this information?
Depending on your use of our website, we may use your personal information for the following:
- To communicate information about our organization and events.
- To contact you for administration purposes related to the activity or online content you signed up for.
- To contact you about any submissions or inquiries you have made.
- For analysis and research so that we may improve the services we offer.
Disclosure of personal information.
We will never sell, exchange, or share your personal information with another company without your consent. This excludes what is set out in this Privacy Policy.
We use third party companies to provide some parts of our services. When you are making payments, you will need to give your payment details to our payment provider.
We may also disclose information we collect from you to comply with judicial proceedings or other legal processes. Your personal information may be stored on servers located outside of Canada, and as a result may be accessible without notice to you by the courts and law enforcement of that jurisdiction.
The use of cookies.
We do not use cookies. Instead, we use ‘cookieless tracking’ which means no exchange of personal or identifiable information occurs. This allows us to view website activity for statistical purposes, but in a privacy-friendly way: we can’t identify who the visitors are, or where they are located.
