PIPEDA Compliance
Fika Looks is committed to complying with the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), Canada's federal private sector privacy law. PIPEDA sets out principles for how private sector organizations handle personal information.
Under PIPEDA, we follow ten fair information principles. These principles form the foundation of how we handle your personal information.
The principle of accountability means we are responsible for protecting your personal information. We have designated a privacy contact person who is responsible for our privacy practices. You can contact us with any privacy concerns at emma@fikalooks.com.
We practice purpose identification, meaning we tell you why we collect your information before or at the time of collection. We only collect information necessary for the purposes we have identified.
The principle of consent means we obtain your permission before collecting, using, or disclosing your personal information. You can withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us.
We limit collection to only what is necessary. We do not collect more information than we need for the purposes we have identified.
We practice data accuracy, ensuring your personal information is accurate and complete for the purposes for which it is to be used.
We have implemented security safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the information. We protect your personal information with reasonable security measures.
We are transparent about our policies and practices. This privacy policy is publicly available and describes how we handle your information.
We provide you with access to your personal information upon request. You can ask to see what information we have about you and request corrections if needed.
If you have a concern about our privacy practices, you can contact us first. If your concern is not resolved, you can file a complaint with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada.
How We Protect Your Information
We implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal information. These measures are designed to prevent unauthorized access, disclosure, or modification of your data.
Our website uses secure connections (HTTPS) to encrypt data transmitted between your browser and our server. This protects information as it travels over the internet. You can verify this by looking for the padlock icon in your browser's address bar.
We limit access to personal information to only those who need it to perform their duties. Our team members are trained on the importance of protecting your privacy.
While we strive to protect your personal information, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security. However, we are committed to maintaining industry-standard security practices.
