This Privacy Policy explains how TechyMana.com (“we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, discloses, and safeguards your information when you visit techymana.com (the “Website”). We are an independent educational and review website focused on IPTV, streaming, and cord-cutting in Canada. We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your personal information responsibly and in accordance with applicable laws, including Canada’s Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) where applicable.

Please read this policy carefully. By using the Website, you consent to the practices described here. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the Website.

1. Information We Collect

We collect information in two ways: automatically as you browse, and directly when you choose to provide it.

Information Collected Automatically

• Log and device data: your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, device type, referring pages, pages viewed, and the dates and times of your visits.
• Cookies and similar technologies: small data files stored on your device that help the Website function, remember your preferences, and measure traffic (see Section 3).
• Analytics data: aggregated, non-identifying statistics about how visitors use the Website.

Information You Provide Directly

• Contact and correspondence: your name and email address if you contact us or submit a form.
• Comments and submissions: any information you voluntarily include when commenting or providing feedback.
• Newsletter: your email address if you subscribe to updates.

We do not knowingly collect sensitive personal information, and we do not process payments on this Website.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Operate, maintain, and improve the Website and its content;
• Understand how visitors use our guides and reviews so we can make them more helpful;
• Respond to your inquiries, comments, and support requests;
• Send you updates or newsletters where you have opted in (you may unsubscribe at any time);
• Detect, prevent, and address technical issues, fraud, or abuse; and
• Comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms.

3. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and comparable technologies to run the Website and analyze traffic. These include:

• Essential cookies required for core functionality;
• Preference cookies that remember your settings; and
• Analytics cookies that help us measure and improve performance.

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect how parts of the Website function. Where required by law, we request your consent before placing non-essential cookies.

4. Third-Party Services

We rely on reputable third-party providers that may collect information through the Website in accordance with their own privacy policies. These may include:

• Analytics providers (for example, Google Analytics and Google Search Console) to understand site usage;
• Advertising and affiliate networks, which may use cookies to measure engagement and attribute referrals; and
• Content delivery and security providers that help deliver the Website quickly and safely.

We do not control these third parties and encourage you to review their privacy policies. We do not sell your personal information.

5. Affiliate Links and Advertising

TechyMana.com may contain affiliate links and display advertising. If you click an affiliate link and take an action, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. Advertising and affiliate partners may set cookies to track referrals and measure campaign performance. Our editorial content and recommendations are independent; see our Terms of Service and Disclaimer for details.

6. How We Share Information

We do not sell or rent your personal information. We may share information only:

• With service providers who process data on our behalf under confidentiality obligations;
• When required by law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request;
• To protect the rights, property, or safety of TechyMana.com, our users, or the public; or
• In connection with a business transfer, merger, or acquisition, subject to this policy.

7. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Aggregated analytics data may be retained for longer periods in a form that does not identify you.

8. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

• Access the personal information we hold about you;
• Correct inaccurate or incomplete information;
• Delete your personal information (“right to erasure”);
• Restrict or object to certain processing;
• Withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent; and
• Data portability, where applicable.

Canadian residents have rights under PIPEDA, EU/EEA residents under the GDPR, and California residents under the CCPA (including the right to know, delete, and opt out of the “sale” of personal information — which we do not engage in). To exercise any right, contact us at [email protected]. We will respond within the timeframes required by applicable law.

9. Data Security

We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect your information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

10. International Data Transfers

The Website is operated from Canada and information may be processed in Canada and other countries where our service providers operate. By using the Website, you acknowledge that your information may be transferred to and processed in jurisdictions with different data-protection laws than your own.

11. Children’s Privacy

The Website is intended for adults and is not directed to children under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

12. Third-Party Links

The Website contains links to external websites and services that we do not operate or control. This Privacy Policy does not apply to those third-party sites, and we are not responsible for their content or privacy practices. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of every site you visit.

13. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or legal requirements. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date above. Material changes will be posted on this page. Your continued use of the Website after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.

14. Contact Us

If you have questions or concerns about this Privacy Policy or how we handle your information, please contact us at [email protected]. We take your privacy seriously and will address your inquiry promptly.
