The web address https://ccglm.org is owned by the Montréal LGBTQ+ Community Center (Center), which is a data controller of your personal data.

We have adopted this privacy policy, which sets out how we treat the information collected by the web address https://ccglm.org/(website) and provides the reasons why we need to collect certain personal data about you. You should therefore read this privacy policy before using the website.

We care about your personal data and are committed to ensuring its confidentiality and security.

Personal information collected:

When you visit the website, we automatically collect certain information about your device, including information about your web browser, your IP address, your time zone, and some of the cookies installed on your device. In addition, as you browse the website, we collect information about the individual web pages or products you visit, the websites or search terms that referred you to the website and how you interact with the website. We refer to this automatically collected information as “device information”. In addition, we may collect the personal data you provide to us (including, but not limited to, last name, first name, address, payment information, etc.) during registration in order to perform the contract.

Why do we process your data?

Our top priority is the security of members’ data, and as such we can only process minimal user data, only to the extent that is absolutely necessary to maintain the website. Automatically collected information is used solely to identify potential cases of abuse and to compile statistical information concerning website use. This statistical information is not otherwise aggregated to identify any particular user of the system.

You can visit the website without telling us who you are or revealing any information by which anyone could identify you as a specific, identifiable individual. However, if you wish to become a member of the Center, you must provide us with personal data, such as your e-mail address, gender, first name, surname, city of residence, address and telephone number. You can choose not to provide us with your personal data, but we will not be able to provide you with the Center’s services.

Users who do not know what information is required are invited to contact us via confidentialité@cclgbtqplus.org.
