NorthSearch ("we", "our", "the site") is a search engine focused on Canadian government, education, and business sources. This policy explains what happens, and what does not happen, when you use northsearch.ca.
We do not use cookies, analytics scripts, advertising trackers, or any technology that builds a profile of you or follows you across visits. We do not sell, rent, or share personal data, because we do not collect any.
When you run a search, your query is sent to our servers to retrieve results and is not stored against any identifier tied to you, logged with your IP address for profiling, or shared with third parties.
Like any website, our infrastructure may generate standard technical server logs (such as request timestamps and error logs) for the sole purpose of keeping the service running and secure. These logs are not used for tracking or advertising and are not sold or shared.
Search results link to third-party websites we do not control. Once you leave northsearch.ca, that site's own privacy policy applies.
If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted on this page with a new "last updated" date.
Questions about this policy can be sent to [email protected].
