Legal
Last updated: June 3, 2026. This policy explains how NiagaraVista collects, uses, and protects information you share when visiting our platform.
NiagaraVista is a free social gaming platform operated from Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. Our registered address is 408 Douglas Street, Victoria, BC V8W 2B3. We can be reached at [email protected] or by telephone at +1 (250) 555-8291. This Privacy Policy applies to all visitors and users of the NiagaraVista website and services.
We collect a limited set of technical data necessary to operate the website. This includes browser type and version, device category (mobile, tablet, desktop), the URL of the page you visited, referring URL if any, approximate geographic region (country and province-level, not street address), and session timestamps. This information is collected automatically through server logs and, where you have consented, through analytics tools. We do not collect your name, email address, phone number, or any personally identifying information unless you contact us voluntarily.
When you contact us by email or phone, we retain the contents of that communication and your contact details for the purpose of responding to your inquiry. Retention period for contact correspondence: 24 months from the date of last contact, after which records are securely deleted.
NiagaraVista does not operate a user account system. No passwords, payment information, or identity documents are ever requested or stored.
To be explicit: we do not collect real names, street addresses, date of birth, government identification numbers, payment card details, bank account information, or social media identifiers. We do not build individual behavioural profiles for advertising purposes. We do not sell, rent, or license any visitor data to third parties for their own marketing.
NiagaraVista uses a small number of third-party services to deliver the website. These include our web hosting provider (who processes server logs in Canada), Google Fonts (used to deliver typography files; Google's privacy policy applies to that request), and Bootstrap CDN via jsDelivr (a content delivery network used to serve stylesheet assets). If you have consented, we may also use Google Analytics to measure aggregate, anonymised traffic patterns. Each of these services processes only the technical data necessary to deliver their function.
We have assessed each third-party processor for PIPEDA compliance and contractual privacy obligations. If you wish to know the specific details of our agreements with any processor, you may contact us at the address above.
We use a small number of cookies and browser storage items to operate the site. A session cookie records whether you have confirmed your age (18+) and whether you have responded to the cookie consent notice. These are essential cookies; they cannot be opted out of without preventing the site from functioning. If you accept analytics cookies, an additional analytics cookie may be set by Google Analytics to track aggregate, anonymised usage. Full details in our Cookie Policy.
Technical data from server logs is used to: detect and prevent abuse, understand aggregate traffic patterns (not individual user behaviour), improve site performance, and comply with legal obligations. Contact correspondence is used solely to respond to your inquiry and to keep a record of that exchange.
We do not use any collected data to target you with advertising, build a profile of your interests, or share it with data brokers. NiagaraVista generates no revenue from advertising or user data.
Server log data is retained for a maximum of 90 days, after which it is automatically purged. Analytics data (if consented) is retained in aggregated, anonymised form for up to 26 months, consistent with Google Analytics default settings. Contact correspondence is retained for 24 months. These windows are set conservatively and may be shortened on request.
Under the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), British Columbia's Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA), and, where applicable, the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Quebec's Law 25, you have the right to: access personal information we hold about you; request correction of inaccurate information; request deletion of information we hold; withdraw consent to processing where consent is the legal basis; file a complaint with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada if you believe your rights have been violated.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at [email protected]. We will respond within 30 days. If you are in Quebec, you may also contact the Commission d'accès à l'information du Québec.
We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect the information we hold. The site is served over HTTPS. Access to server logs is restricted to authorised personnel. Contact correspondence is stored in encrypted email systems. No security measure is perfect; in the event of a breach affecting personal information, we will notify affected individuals and the relevant authority as required by law.
Our primary infrastructure is located in Canada. Some third-party processors (such as Google) may process data in the United States or other jurisdictions. Where such transfers occur, we rely on standard contractual clauses and the processor's own certification frameworks to ensure an adequate level of protection. If you are in Quebec, these transfers are subject to the privacy impact assessment requirements of Law 25.
NiagaraVista is intended exclusively for adults aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has accessed the site, please contact us immediately and we will take appropriate corrective action.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be announced on the homepage for at least 30 days before taking effect. The date at the top of this document reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the site after a policy update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
Privacy inquiries: [email protected] • +1 (250) 555-8291 • 408 Douglas Street, Victoria, BC V8W 2B3, Canada. We treat privacy concerns as a priority and respond personally — not through automated systems.
NiagaraVista is for adults 18 and over only.
