Our stance on privacy
Being so heavily involved in the data security world, we are unwavering proponents of ethical data collection. Carfreak is transparent about the data you share with us and complies with, and often exceeds, requirements set forth by the Canada Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL).
CONSENT
How do you get my consent?
When you provide us with personal information (name, email and phone number) by completing the contact form, we imply that you consent to our collecting it and using it for that specific reason only. When you send in the online form to contact our support team, we collect your first name, email, location and everything else you give to us in the form.
If we ask for your personal information for a secondary reason, like marketing, we will either ask you directly for your expressed consent, or provide you with an opportunity to say no.
How do I withdraw my consent?
If after you opt-in, you change your mind, you may withdraw your consent for us to contact you, for the continued collection, use or disclosure of your information, at anytime, by contacting us here.
Who is my information shared with when interacting with sellers?
When you complete your purchase for a service on Carfreak, the seller is provided with your first name and a direct message ability on the service order page. They will not receive your email, phone number, credit card data or any other identifying information. Whether you choose to then share your email, phone number, mailing address or any other personal information with the seller is up to you, and you hold the sole responsibility for ensuring the security of that data once provided to the seller.
HOSTING
Our website is hosted through Webflow, which provides us with the online site hosting platform that allows us to advertise our products and services to you. Your data is stored on their databases and the general Gmail application. They store your data on a secure server behind a firewall.
