Privacy Policy

Compliant with Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) • Last Updated: July 2026

1Our Commitment to Canadian Privacy

CanDrive is committed to protecting your privacy in compliance with Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and applicable provincial privacy legislation in Ontario. This policy outlines how we handle data when you browse and use our vehicle cost intelligence calculators.

2Data Collection & Anonymous Calculation

Zero Personal Financial Tracking: CanDrive does not collect your Social Insurance Number (SIN), driver's license number, credit card information, bank details, or home address.

All vehicle selections (Make, Model, Year, Trim) and calculation parameters (annual commuter kilometers, fuel price adjustments) are processed in memory and client-side sessions to render your instant cost breakdowns.

3Cookies & Anonymous Usage Telemetry

We use privacy-respecting cookies and anonymous session identifiers solely for technical operation (e.g., maintaining calculator state and caching vehicle taxonomy responses). We do not build individual cross-site tracking profiles, nor do we sell, rent, or trade user data to third-party data brokers.

4Security Safeguards & Data Storage

All network communications with CanDrive are encrypted in transit using industry-standard Transport Layer Security (TLS/HTTPS). Any operational telemetry or API caching is strictly restricted to secure server infrastructure with role-based access controls.

5. Your Rights Under PIPEDA

Under Canadian privacy law, individuals have the right to know what personal information is held by an organization and to request corrections. Because CanDrive operates anonymously without requiring accounts or collecting personally identifiable profiles, we do not maintain personal user dossiers.
