Privacy Policy
Centennial Park Skating Club is committed to protecting the accuracy, confidentiality, and security of personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, safeguard, and manage personal information in connection with our programs, registrations, communications, and website services.
Our privacy practices are guided by the Canadian Standards Association Model Code for the Protection of Personal Information and applicable Canadian privacy law, including the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), where applicable.
1. Introduction
We are responsible for personal information under our control and for maintaining reasonable safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of that information. We have designated responsibility for privacy compliance within the organization.
2. Identifying Purposes
We collect, use, and disclose personal information to provide skating programs, process registrations and payments, communicate with members and families, manage scheduling and administration, respond to inquiries, support club operations, and meet legal, safety, and organizational requirements.
The purposes for collection will be identified before or at the time information is collected. In some situations, the purpose may be obvious from the context, such as when information is provided as part of registration, payment, or a contact request.
3. Consent
Knowledge and consent are required for the collection, use, or disclosure of personal information except where otherwise required or permitted by law. You may choose not to provide certain information, but this may limit our ability to provide programs, services, or support.
We do not require consent for unnecessary uses of personal information as a condition of receiving a product or service. Where additional consent is appropriate for optional activities, communications, or media use, we may request it separately.
4. Limiting Collection
We limit the personal information we collect to what is reasonably necessary for the purposes identified. With consent where required, information may be collected in person, by telephone, by email, through online registration systems, or through website forms and related digital services.
5. Limiting Use, Disclosure and Retention
Personal information is used or disclosed only for the purposes for which it was collected, unless additional consent is obtained or disclosure is required or permitted by law. We retain personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill operational, legal, accounting, safety, and record-keeping obligations.
In the course of operating our club and website, we may work with service providers or platforms that help us deliver registrations, payments, communications, website functionality, analytics, security, and related services. Where such service providers process information on our behalf, we expect them to handle information in a manner appropriate to their role and applicable legal requirements.
6. Accuracy
We aim to keep personal information as accurate, complete, and up to date as necessary for the purposes for which it is used. Members and families are encouraged to notify us promptly of any changes to their contact or registration information.
7. Safeguarding Personal Information
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the information to help protect personal information against loss, theft, unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use, or modification.
8. Openness
We make information about our privacy practices available through this Privacy Policy and related communications. We aim to present privacy information in a clear and accessible manner.
9. Individual Access
Upon request, individuals may ask about the existence, use, and disclosure of their personal information and may request access to it, subject to legal or operational limitations. Individuals may also request corrections where information is incomplete or inaccurate.
10. Questions, Complaints and Suggestions
Questions, concerns, access requests, correction requests, or privacy-related complaints may be directed to:
