Third-party services and links

Our website links to a number of third-party applications and sites.

In general, the third-party providers we use will only collect, use, and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide to us.

However, certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways like Canada Helps and Stripe, have their own privacy policies with respect to the information we are required to provide to them for your purchase-related transactions.

Additionally, certain providers may be located in or have facilities that are located in a different jurisdiction than either you or us. If you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third-party service provider, then your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located.
