Privacy

CanoeMap.ca is built to respect your privacy. We don't follow you across the web.

What we don't do

We place no tracking cookies. We collect no personally identifiable information (name, email, persistent IP, device identifier). We don't sell any data.

What we measure

To understand how the site is used, we use two privacy-respecting tools. Neither sets a cookie or stores anything on your device, and neither follows you to other sites.

Cloudflare Web Analytics: aggregated page counts. It records pages visited, country (no city), device class, referrer and page loading speed. Details.
PostHog, in cookieless mode, on servers in the United States. It records the pages you visit, the site that sent you, your browser and device type, the links and buttons you click, and what you do in the map: which route you open, which filters and sort order you choose, the language you switch to, and how long a search is, never what you typed. It discards your IP address and counts visitors with an anonymous code that changes every day, so a visit today cannot be linked to one tomorrow. PostHog privacy policy.

There is no session recording and no advertising tracker, and nothing is combined into a profile of you.

Feedback

The Feedback tab on every page sends what you write to PostHog, where only we read it. It asks for no name or email. If you add your email so we can reply, we use it for that reply and nothing else.

Maps and tiles

Interactive maps use Mapbox. When you load a map, your browser talks directly to Mapbox to fetch tiles. Mapbox privacy policy.

Outbound and affiliate links

Some links on this site are affiliate links, marked where they appear. When you click one, the seller or its affiliate network may set its own cookie on your device to credit a sale to CanoeMap. That cookie is theirs and falls under their privacy policy. CanoeMap passes no personal information to them, and counts clicks on these links without identifying you. How the affiliate links work.

Your rights

We hold no personal data about you unless you put some in a feedback message. To have a message deleted, or for any question, write to [email protected].
