Privacy Policy

Overview

Idea Warehouse ("we", "us") operates the website www.ideawarehouse.ca. This policy explains what data we collect when you visit our site, how we use it, and what choices you have.

Analytics

We use two analytics tools to understand how people use our site:

• Matomo is a self-hosted analytics platform running on our own servers at analytics.ideawarehouse.ca. Because we host it ourselves, your analytics data never leaves our infrastructure and is not shared with any third party. Matomo collects information like pages visited, referring sites, browser type, and general location (country/region level). We also use Matomo Tag Manager to manage how tracking scripts load on the site.
• Google Analytics is a third-party service provided by Google. It collects similar usage data and processes it on Google's servers. Google's privacy policy applies to that data. You can learn more at policies.google.com/privacy.

Cookies

Both Matomo and Google Analytics use cookies to distinguish unique visitors and track sessions. These are small text files stored in your browser. You can block or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time.

Opting Out

If you prefer not to be tracked, you have a few options:

• Enable the "Do Not Track" setting in your browser. Matomo respects this signal automatically.
• Use a browser extension like uBlock Origin to block analytics scripts.
• For Google Analytics specifically, you can install Google's opt-out browser add-on.

Contact Information

We don't collect personal information beyond what the analytics tools gather automatically. If you reach out to us through the contact page, we'll only use your information to respond to your message.
