Privacy Policy

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, Vaccine Choice Canada (VCC), operator of the Vaccinechoicecanada.com website, collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Vaccine Choice Canadas purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Vaccinechoicecanada.com visitors use its website. From time to time, Vaccine Choice Canada may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.


Vaccine Choice Canada also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. Vaccine Choice Canada does not use such information to identify its visitors, however, and does not disclose such information, other than under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information, as described below.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to Vaccine Choice Canadas website choose to interact with Vaccinechoicecanada.com in ways that require us to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that we gather depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who want to receive VCC’s bi-weekly newsletter and/or to receiveVCC Special Notices to provide their name and email address on our Choice Insider subscription form. The VCC website has security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under its control.


Those who engage in transactions with Vaccine Choice Canada – members and donors for example – are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. All financial payments and donations processed through our website use software services from ChargeBee and payment services from Authorize.Net. In each case, Vaccine Choice Canada collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitors interaction with Vaccine Choice Canada. We do not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.

Aggregated Statistics

Vaccine Choice Canada may collect statistics about the behaviour of visitors to its website. For instance, Vaccine Choice Canada may monitor the most popular parts of the Vaccinechoicecanada.com website. Vaccine Choice Canada may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, Vaccine Choice Canada does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

Vaccine Choice Canada discloses personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and service providers that (i) need to know that information in order to provide services available on our website, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and service providers may be located outside of Canada; by using the Vaccine Choice Canada website, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Vaccine Choice Canada will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. 

Other than to its employees, contractors and service providers, as described above, Vaccine Choice Canada discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only when required to do so by law, or when Vaccine Choice Canada believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Vaccine Choice Canada, third parties or the public at large. 

If you have agreed to receive VCC Special Notices and have supplied your email address, Vaccine Choice Canada may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new services, solicit your feedback, or to keep you up to date with information about Vaccine Choice Canada. Vaccine Choice Canada takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
