Last updated: April 2026

Introduction

Le Petit Navire (“Company” or “We”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting it by complying with this policy.

This policy describes:

How we collect, use, disclose, and protect the personal information of our customers and website users (“you”).
The types of information we may collect from you or that you may provide when you visit the website lepetitnavire.ca (our “Website”).
Our practices for collecting, using, maintaining, protecting, and disclosing that information.

We will only use your personal information in accordance with this policy unless otherwise required by applicable law. We take steps to ensure that the personal information we collect about you is adequate, relevant, not excessive, and used for limited purposes.

Privacy laws in Canada generally define “personal information” as any information about an identifiable individual. This policy is governed by the federal Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and, for Quebec residents, by the Act Respecting the Protection of Personal Information in the Private Sector, as modernized by Quebec Law 25, which is fully in force as of September 22, 2024.

This policy applies to information we collect, use, or disclose about you on this Website and in email, text, and other electronic messages between you and this Website.

The Website may include links to third-party websites, plug-ins, services, or applications. We do not control these third-party websites and encourage you to read the privacy policy of every website you visit.
