Scope & Commitment to Privacy

CandCalc values and respects your personal privacy. This Privacy Policy outlines how CandCalc collects, uses, protects, and handles information when you visit our website, use our automotive calculators, or submit inquiries. We comply with Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and applicable provincial privacy regulations.

Information We Collect

We collect only the minimum information necessary to provide accurate calculator results and customer support:

  1. Non-Personal Calculator Inputs: Vehicle prices, down payments, trade-in values, interest rates, loan terms, and selected provinces. These entries are processed entirely in your web browser or in-memory and are never stored on our servers linked to your personal identity.
  2. Voluntary Form Submissions: Your name, email address, inquiry topic, and message when you use our contact form or subscribe to our newsletter.
  3. Anonymous Technical Data: Standard server logs, IP addresses, browser types, device information, and anonymous usage telemetry to ensure platform uptime and security.

How We Use Information

  1. To perform requested mathematical calculations and generate interactive payment charts.
  2. To respond to user inquiries, correction requests, and support tickets.
  3. To distribute opt-in newsletter broadcasts and automotive market updates.
  4. To maintain site performance, prevent malicious activity, and optimize usability.

No Sale or Unauthorized Sharing of Data

CandCalc does not sell, rent, lease, or trade personal information to third-party lenders, automotive dealerships, or data brokers. We do not transmit your financial estimates to any third-party loan provider without your explicit instruction.

Cookies & Tracking Technologies

We use essential cookies to maintain user session preferences (such as French/English language selection and dark mode preferences). Please review our Cookie Policy for detailed information on cookie categories and consent management.

Data Security & Retention

We implement industry-standard SSL/TLS encryption across all site traffic. Contact form submissions and newsletter subscriptions are stored in secure, encrypted databases with strict access controls.
