Privacy at MapleLeafMeds.com: What we collect and how we protect it

Most sites collect some data — we keep what’s necessary and try to be clear about it. On MapleLeafMeds.com we collect basic info from contact forms and newsletter sign-ups, technical data like IP and device type, and anonymous analytics so we can improve the site. We don’t sell your personal info. If you want specifics, our full Privacy Policy pages explain every detail and the legal basis for processing under GDPR.

What we collect and why

When you use the site you might give us: your name and email (contact form or newsletter), messages you send, and any info you type into forms. We also automatically collect non-identifying data: IP address, browser type, device info, referral page, and pages you visit. That helps us fix issues, spot abuses, and shape content you find useful. We use cookies and similar tech for basic site function and to run anonymous analytics; those cookies don’t reveal your identity.

Some examples: if you ask a question through the contact form we store your email so we can reply. If you read several articles about a drug, anonymous analytics show us which topics need clearer coverage — nothing linked to your name unless you provide it.

How you can control your data

You have choices. Want fewer cookies? Use your browser settings to block or clear cookies, or use an extension that blocks trackers. Want to stop our newsletter? Click unsubscribe at the bottom of any email or ask us to remove you via the contact page. Want a copy of the data we hold or to ask for deletion? Email the address on our Contact page and we’ll respond with the next steps.

If you’re in the EU, you can exercise GDPR rights like access, correction, and erasure. We’ll verify requests to avoid accidental disclosure to someone else. For security, we keep data only as long as needed for the purpose you gave it or as required by law, then we delete or anonymize it.

Practical tips: browse in private mode to reduce stored cookies, use an ad/tracker blocker, and avoid sharing sensitive health details in public comments. If you need to discuss a medical issue privately, use our contact form or consult a healthcare provider directly.

If anything about how we handle data worries you, contact us. We aim to be straightforward, fix problems fast, and respect your choices about personal information.
