Privacy Policy

A legal disclaimer

The explanations and information provided on this page are only general and high-level explanations and information on how to write your own document of a Privacy Policy. You should not rely on this article as legal advice or as recommendations regarding what you should actually do, because we cannot know in advance what are the specific privacy policies you wish to establish between your business and your customers and visitors. We recommend that you seek legal advice to help you understand and to assist you in the creation of your own Privacy Policy.

Privacy Policy - the basics

Having said that, a privacy policy is a statement that discloses some or all of the ways a website collects, uses, discloses, processes, and manages the data of its visitors and customers. It usually also includes a statement regarding the website’s commitment to protecting its visitors’ or customers’ privacy, and an explanation about the different mechanisms the website is implementing in order to protect privacy. 

 

Different jurisdictions have different legal obligations of what must be included in a Privacy Policy. You are responsible to make sure you are following the relevant legislation to your activities and location. 

What to include in the Privacy Policy

Generally speaking, a Privacy Policy often addresses these types of issues: the types of information the website is collecting and the manner in which it collects the data; an explanation about why is the website collecting these types of information; what are the website’s practices on sharing the information with third parties; ways in which your visitors and customers can exercise their rights according to the relevant privacy legislation; the specific practices regarding minors’ data collection; and much, much more.

We respectfully acknowledge that the North Simcoe Arts is located on the traditional territories of the Anishinaabeg peoples, including the Ojibwe, Odawa, and Potawatomi Nations of the Three Fires Confederacy, and the ancestral homelands of the Wendat peoples.We recognize the enduring stewardship and presence of the Chippewa Tri-Council First Nations: Beausoleil First Nation, Chippewas of Rama First Nation, and Chippewas of Georgina Island First Nation, whose relationships with these lands and waters continue today. We also acknowledge the Métis peoples of this region, and the Haudenosaunee and other Indigenous Nations who have travelled, gathered, and cared for these territories over time.This region lies within the territories covered by the Williams Treaties of 1923, as well as earlier agreements including Treaty 5 and the Lake Simcoe–Nottawasaga Treaty. As an arts council, we are committed to ongoing learning, relationship-building, and supporting Indigenous voices, stories, and creative expression in the spirit of respect, reciprocity, and reconciliation.

We believe the arts are strengthened by the voices, experiences, and creative expressions of people from all backgrounds, identities, and abilities. We strive to create welcoming, accessible, and respectful spaces where artists, audiences, staff, volunteers, and community members feel valued and empowered to participate fully.
