Privacy Policy

At ModTod, we value you as a customer and we respect your privacy. We want you to feel confident that your privacy and the personal information you share with us is protected. For this reason, we provide the following Privacy Policy (the “Policy”) to explain what kind of data we collect, why we collect it, whom we share it with, how you can access it, and correct it when necessary.

This Policy applies to the use of the signup.modtod.ca website, as well as the ModTod application (the “Services”). Please read it carefully in order to understand when you may provide Personal information to us and how ModTod uses the Personal Information provided. By using our Services, you agree to the use of your personal information as described in this Policy. The terms “we”, “us” or “ModTod” are each intended as a reference to ModTod Inc.

Please note that our Services may link to products or applications of third parties whose privacy practices may differ from ModTod’s. If you click on a third-party link, you will be directed to that third party’s site. We strongly advise you to review the privacy policy of every site you visit.

We have no control over, and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies or practices of any third-party sites or services.

How to access and control your data

You can review, edit or delete your personal information by contacting us at hello@modtod.ca. When you email us, please your full name and the email address you used when you signed up for ModTod.

Processing your email request takes about 10 working days. We appreciate your patience and understanding in giving us the time to process your request.

You can always opt out of receiving promotional emails and other types of marketing communication from us via the “unsubscribe” tab at the bottom of every email we send out. If you request that we remove your name and your email address from our mailing list, we will keep your name in a file of names excluded in order to meet your request.

Where your data is stored

Your Personal Information is stored on our servers, maintained by DigitalOcean. DigitalOcean is GDPR-compliant and EU-US Privacy Shield certified. Your information may also be stored in other countries, following a transfer to the third-parties we work with.

How long will your data be kept for

We will retain all collected information for as long as necessary to provide the Services, as requested, or for other essential purposes such as complying with any legal obligations. As long as your account is active, we will keep your Personal Information on our systems. We will also dispose of your data if you decide to withdraw your consent. Once your data is removed, you will receive confirmation that your request has been fulfilled.

Security

We strive to provide an online experience that is safe and convenient. We recognize that you trust us to protect your personal information. We have put in place measures to protect personal information that we possess and control.

When transferred to us and stored, your data is encrypted using 128-bit SSL.

We also only allow access to personal information to those of our employees and our authorized service providers who need the information for the purposes described in this commitment to privacy.

In order to offer an increased level of security, online access to certain personal information may be protected by the password you choose to access the ModTod app. We strongly recommend that you not disclose your password to anyone. ModTod will never ask for your password in an unsolicited communication.

It is important to understand, however, that unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be considered absolutely safe. Therefore, it is impossible for us to guarantee 100% secure data transmission over the Internet.

ModTod does not declare or guarantee that personal information will not be lost, misused or modified, and assumes no responsibility for personal information that you transmit, or with regards to the use or misuse of personal information by you or third parties. If you have reason to believe that your communication with us is no longer secure, you must inform us immediately of the problem by contacting us at hello@modtod.ca.

Here are a few best practices to follow while shopping with ModTod and other online retailers:

  • If using a public computer, always close your session when you’re done.
  • Don’t share passwords. Anyone who knows your password can access your personal information.
  • When you create a password, use at least eight (8) characters and choose a combination of letters and numbers.
  • Don’t use words from a dictionary, your name, email address or other personal information that can be easily obtained.
  • Change your password often and use different passwords for each of your online accounts.
  • Be suspicious of emails and unsolicited telephone calls.

If you receive a suspicious email with a link to update your account information, don’t click the link. If a stranger contacts you, sends you an unsolicited email or asks you to confirm or provide your password or your personal information, ignore the request and contact us immediately at hello@modtod.ca.

Children’s Privacy

If you have not reached the age of majority, you cannot make purchases using the ModTod mobile app unless you have permission from a parent or guardian before providing us with personal information.

Children under 13 cannot register to use ModTod. We don’t collect or retain personal information from children under the age of 13. If you sign up anyway and we find out that you are under 13 years old, we will remove your registration information and send you an email message to alert you. If you are under 13 and want to make a purchase, please ask a parent or guardian to place the order for you.

We urge parents and guardians to take part in online activities with their children and use parental control or other web filtering technology to monitor children’s access to the Internet.

Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada (OPC)

If you are not satisfied by ModTod’s response following a request regarding the access of your personal information, you may contact the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada (OPC), the public authority in charge of overseeing personal information handling practices in Canada.
