Barrie & District Christmas Cheer is a registered charity. Our board, sponsors and volunteers are committed to protecting the privacy of everyone who contacts us, and to keeping the details of the people and families we help confidential.

What we collect and why

We only collect information you choose to give us by email, phone or other direct contact. We will never sell or rent it. We may use it to:

  • provide the services offered by Christmas Cheer;
  • confirm your identity when providing those services;
  • answer your questions by email or phone;
  • tell you about upcoming events, unless you ask us not to;
  • issue tax receipts for donations.

Applications for Christmas help are made through our separate application site, apply.christmascheerbarrie.com, which explains how application information is handled.

Your choices

You can ask us at any time to stop contacting you, to show you the information we hold about you, to correct it or to delete it, or raise any concern about how we use it.

Security

We take care to protect your information online and offline. Only volunteers who need information to do a specific job can see it.

Other websites

This site links to other websites, including CanadaHelps and our sponsors. We are not responsible for their privacy practices, so please review their policies.
