Overview
TamilCanada Business Directory helps visitors discover businesses and helps business owners manage public business profiles. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and how advertising and analytics technologies may work on the site.
Information we collect
We may collect information you provide, including business listing details, owner account details, reviewer account details, claim request information, review text, photo uploads, and messages sent to us by email.
We also collect technical information such as page visits, browser type, approximate country, hashed IP address, referrer, and cookies needed for login, security, analytics, and site operation.
How we use information
We use information to operate the directory, publish and moderate listings, process business claims, prevent spam or abuse, show visitor analytics in the admin panel, improve navigation, respond to support requests, and keep the site secure.
Cookies and advertising
We use necessary cookies for sessions, login, security, and basic visitor recognition. If Google AdSense or other advertising services are enabled, Google and third-party vendors may use cookies, web beacons, IP addresses, device identifiers, or similar technologies to serve and measure ads.
Google may use advertising cookies to serve ads based on a user's visits to this and other websites. Visitors can learn more about Google's use of advertising cookies at Google Advertising Technologies.
Analytics
Our admin analytics records page views, visitor hashes, approximate country, referrer, and paths visited. IP addresses are hashed before storage for analytics records. We do not use this information to publicly identify individual visitors.
User content
Business owners and reviewers may submit public content such as listing descriptions, photos, updates, and reviews. Public content may be visible to visitors and search engines. Do not submit private information that should not be public.
Sharing
We may share limited information with service providers used for hosting, storage, security, analytics, email delivery, advertising, or legal compliance. We do not sell account passwords or private account credentials.
Your choices
You may request listing corrections, account changes, business claim review, or removal of content by contacting us. You can disable non-essential cookies in your browser, but some login and account features may stop working.
