Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Who We Share Your Data With

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.

For Employment and Visa-Related Inquiries: The personal data you provide when applying for a position or inquiring about visa sponsorship (such as your name, contact information, resume, and work history) is used solely for recruitment and eligibility assessment for the Temporary Foreign Worker Program. This data is treated with strict confidentiality and is not shared with third parties for marketing purposes. It may be shared with relevant government immigration authorities as required by law to process a work permit application.

How Long We Retain Your Data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

Employment Application Data: We retain the data from employment and visa sponsorship inquiries for a period of two years to consider candidates for future opportunities, unless you request its deletion.

What Rights You Have Over Your Data

If you have an account on this site, have left comments, or have submitted an employment inquiry, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where Your Data Is Sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

International Data Transfers: In the context of our visa sponsorship program, the data you provide for employment may be transferred to and processed by relevant Canadian government agencies (such as Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada) as a necessary part of the work permit application process.
