Privacy Policy
Last updated:
This policy explains what personal information WaterproofingIndex handles, how we use it, and the choices you have. WaterproofingIndex covers the Greater Toronto Areaand is operated from Ontario, Canada. We handle personal information in line with Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA). Effective date: August 4, 2026.
What information does WaterproofingIndex collect?
Almost none. WaterproofingIndex is a directory you read. There is no quote form, no contact form, no sign-up and no account, so there is nothing here for you to fill in and nothing for us to store. No contact address is published for this site yet, so at present there is no route by which you could send us anything at all. If one is published, this policy will describe what happens to what you send. Our host also keeps standard server logs, including your IP address and browser type, to keep the site online and secure. Please do not send sensitive information such as financial account numbers.
How does WaterproofingIndex use it?
Any message you send is used only to answer you. We do not sell personal information, we do not share it with the businesses listed on this site, and we do not use it for advertising. Server logs are used only for security, troubleshooting and preventing abuse.
Does WaterproofingIndex contact the businesses on your behalf?
No, and this is worth stating plainly. WaterproofingIndex does not pass your details to anyone. When you find a business here you contact it yourself, using the phone number or website on its profile. Anything you then tell that business is between you and them, under their own privacy practices. We are not part of that conversation and never see it.
Does WaterproofingIndex use cookies or analytics?
We do not run third-party analytics, advertising pixels or cross-site trackers, and the site sets no cookies of its own. Our host may set what is strictly necessary to serve the pages. Because nothing here tracks you across the web, there is no advertising profile of you to opt out of. If we ever add analytics, we will update this policy first and describe your choices.
How does WaterproofingIndex handle business listing data?
Listings are compiled from public information: company names, addresses, phone numbers, websites, and the star ratings, review counts, review text and photographs published on Google Maps. Reviews and photographs remain the work of the people who posted them and of Google, and are shown here with that origin stated. This is public business data rather than private personal data.
Business owners can have a record corrected, or removed from the dataset entirely, without giving a reason. The address for those requests is not published yet, because mail on this domain does not resolve and an address that bounces would quietly lose the request. It will be published on the contact page as soon as it works, and requests sent to it are actioned on the listing: a removal deletes the record from the dataset and the profile page stops being built.
What are your privacy rights under PIPEDA?
Under PIPEDA you can ask what personal information WaterproofingIndex holds about you, request a copy, ask us to correct it, and withdraw your consent to our use of it. In practice, unless you have written to us, there is nothing held about you beyond server logs. Exercising those rights needs a channel to send the request through, and one is not published yet. When an address appears on the contact page, requests sent to it will be answered within a reasonable time.
How does WaterproofingIndex comply with CASL?
Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL) governs commercial email. WaterproofingIndex sends no marketing email, no newsletters and no promotional blasts. There is no mailing list here to join or to be added to. If optional marketing email is ever introduced, it will be strictly opt-in with a clear unsubscribe link in every message, as CASL requires.
How does WaterproofingIndex store and retain data?
We keep email correspondence only as long as needed to handle it and any follow-up. We use reasonable technical and organizational safeguards to protect what we hold, though no method of transmission over the internet is perfectly secure. Data may be processed on servers located in Canada or the United States by our hosting and email providers.
How do I contact WaterproofingIndex about privacy?
A contact address for privacy questions is not published yet. It will appear on the contact page once mail on this domain works, and requests sent to it will be answered. If we make material changes to this policy, we will post the updated version here with a new effective date. Please also review our terms of service, which govern your use of WaterproofingIndex.
