Introduction
The Logic Inc. (“The Logic”) respects your (“Your”) privacy and is committed to protecting it through The Logic’s compliance with this privacy policy (the “Privacy Policy”). This means The Logic does not transfer, distribute, disclose, rent or sell any of Your personal information to third parties except as provided for in this Privacy Policy or as specifically consented by You.
The Logic has developed policies and procedures consistent with the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (“PIPEDA”), and other relevant privacy laws.

Scope
This Privacy Policy applies to all Personal Information collected, used or disclosed by The Logic from end-users of The Logic’s Services (“Users”), including You. “Personal Information” is any information in any form that identifies or can identify an individual or could be combined by The Logic or our service providers and affiliates with other information to identify you.
This Privacy Policy also applies to information that is about You, but individually does not identify You, as described below.
Accountability
The Logic is responsible for the Personal Information under its possession and control. The Logic has designated a Privacy Officer to be responsible for its compliance with this Privacy Policy and privacy legislation.

In addition, The Logic may use Website and Device Information, on an aggregated de-identified basis, for research purposes to improve the Services. This aggregated de-identified information does not identify any individual and therefore is considered and treated as WDI under this Privacy Policy.
How does The Logic collect, use and share WDI? How does The Logic use cookies?
The Logic uses WDI in an ongoing effort to better understand and serve the Users of The Logic’s Services, including to provide the Services and to improve the content and functionality of the Services.
For instance, The Logic uses WDI to monitor traffic and to collect statistical data.
The Logic also conducts research on The Logic’s User demographics and behavior based on the Website and Device Information that The Logic has collected. This research will be compiled and analyzed on an aggregated basis and this aggregate does not identify any individual and therefore is considered and treated as WDI under this Privacy Policy.
No WDI by itself, or together with aggregated Personal Information (which, as explained below, is treated as WDI under this Privacy Policy), can be tracked to a specific individual’s Personal Information.
The WDI collected is used to monitor traffic, provide the Services, and conduct internal research on The Logic’s Users’ to better understand and serve them, including Users’ size, usage patterns, demographics, interests and behaviors.
The Services may automatically receive and store certain types of information about Users’ use of the Services and their devices, including IP address, browser type, web pages viewed, date and time, device unique identifier, mobile network information, mobile stored information and files, and device phone number, as well as how users interact with The Logic.

The WDI collected by The Logic will not be shared with third parties, except as expressly indicated in this Privacy Policy, or with The Logic’s Affiliates (as defined below), business partners and other third parties to describe The Logic’s Services and for other lawful purposes.
Cookies; Opt-Out
The Logic uses cookies to enhance Users’ experiences. Users’ web browsers place cookies on their computers for record-keeping purposes and sometimes to track information about them. Cookies help The Logic accurately understand how many consumers are visiting The Logic’s Website, how often Users visit the Website, what Content Users are most interested in, and how they prefer to interact with Content on the Website. For example, a cookie will allow The Logic to remember certain things like Your Internet Protocol (IP) address (IP addresses are strings of numbers that identify senders and receivers of information sent across the Internet), Your login information, the time and duration of Your visits, how You navigated through The Logic’s content and where You exited the Website. To save You the time of re-entering Your login information every time You come back to The Logic’s Website, The Logic may link information contained in a cookie to Your email address. The Logic does not use cookies to retrieve information from Your computer that The Logic did not originally send in a cookie.
The Logic uses Google Analytics which uses cookies to track information about traffic and visitors and sends such information (i) to Google servers in the United States and (ii) to the The Logic. Google Analytics does not identify any individual users or associate Your IP address with any other data held by Google. The Logic uses such information in the aggregate to compile statistical reports about the activity on the Services as well as to benchmark the Services to other third parties who also use Google Analytics. This information is used by The Logic to improve the Services and their functionality. Google’s privacy policy can be found here.
The Logic uses piano.io for certain online commerce, customer relationship management, and analytics. Piano.io uses cookies about traffic and visitors in order to provide feedback for The Logic on how to improve the user experience. piano.io’s privacy policy can be found here.
You may disable cookies using Your browser’s settings. Please consult Your browser’s help function for information on how to disable cookies.
You may opt-out of Google Analytics by clicking here.
Note that if You disable cookies, certain features of The Logic’s Services may not function to their fullest potential.
Interest-Based Advertising
The Logic works with third-parties such as ad networks and other advertising companies or partners that use their own tracking technologies (including cookies and pixel tags) on The Logic’s Website in order to provide tailored advertisements across the Internet. These companies may collect information about Your activity on The Logic’s Website and third-party websites (such as web pages You visit and Your interaction with The Logic’s advertising and other communications) and use this information to make predictions about Your preferences, develop personalized content and deliver ads that are more relevant to You on third party websites. This information may also be used to evaluate the effectiveness of our online advertising campaigns.
Opting-out of Interest-Based Advertising: For more information about interest-based advertising on your desktop or mobile browser and to understand your options, including how you can opt-out of receiving interest-based ads from third-party advertising companies participating in the Digital Advertising Alliance of Canada (DAAC) Self-Regulatory Program for Online Interest-Based Advertising, please visit the DAAC website at http://youradchoices.ca/choices.
Important Notes About your Opt-Out:
- If you opt-out of interest-based advertising by a third party, these tracking technologies may still collect data for other purposes including analytics and you will still see ads from us across the Internet, but the ads will not be targeted based on behavioural information about you and may therefore be less relevant to you and your interests.
- Interest-based advertising opt-outs work by saving cookies in your browser that tell the various ad partners that you have opted-out. Because cookies are generally browser-specific, your choice will only apply to the web browser from which you opt-out. You must opt-out from each web browser from which you do not want interest-based advertising (and this may involve different devices, if you use more than one).
- If you delete or clear your browser’s cookies, you will need to opt-out again.
Consent
The Logic respects Your privacy and, unless otherwise required by law, The Logic will not collect, use or disclose Your Personal Information without Your prior consent. Your consent may be expressed or implied. You may expressly give Your consent in writing, verbally or through any electronic means. In certain circumstances, Your consent may be implied by Your actions. For example, providing The Logic Personal Information to register for The Logic’s Services is implied consent to use such information to provide You the associated Services.
Where appropriate, The Logic will generally seek consent for the use or disclosure of the information at the time of collection. In certain circumstances, consent with respect to use or disclosure may be sought after the information has been collected but before use (for example, when The Logic wants to use information for a purpose other than those identified above). In obtaining consent, The Logic will use reasonable efforts to ensure that a customer is advised of the identified purposes for which Personal Information collected will be used or disclosed.
The form of consent sought by The Logic may vary, depending upon the circumstances and type of information disclosed. In determining the appropriate form of consent, The Logic shall take into account the sensitivity of the Personal Information and the reasonable expectations of The Logic’s Users. The Logic will seek express consent when the information is likely to be considered sensitive. Implied consent will generally be appropriate where the information is less sensitive.
You may withdraw consent at any time, subject to legal or contractual restrictions and reasonable notice. In order to withdraw consent, You must provide notice to The Logic in writing.
