Privacy Policy

Who we are

Toronto Zoo Info is an independent, non-commercial, educational project about the Toronto Zoo. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by the Toronto Zoo or the City of Toronto. Because the project has no commercial purpose, it has no accounts, no checkout, no newsletter and no registrations.

Information we collect

• From you: nothing. No form on this website submits data to us.
• Automatically: one value - "accepted" or "declined" - saved to your browser's local storage when you interact with the consent banner, so it is not shown again. It stays on your device and is never transmitted.
• What we deliberately do not use: no analytics or statistics services, no advertising networks, no social media pixels, no cookies, no fingerprinting, no session recording.

Cookies and local storage

This website sets no cookies of any kind. The only client-side storage is the consent preference described above. Remove it at any time by clearing your browser's site data for this website.

No sale of personal data

We never sell, rent, trade or share personal data with third parties, for money or otherwise. There is nothing to sell: the website has no commercial activity.

Third-party links

Pages contain links to reputable external websites: the official Toronto Zoo site, Wikipedia, the IUCN Red List, the City of Toronto, Parks Canada, CAZA, the AZA and the TTC. These organizations operate their own sites with their own privacy policies, which we do not control. Read their policies before giving them personal information.

Children's privacy

This is a general-audience educational resource. We knowingly collect no personal information from anyone, including children.

Your rights

We hold no visitor profiles or databases, so there is no personal data of yours for us to access, correct or delete. The consent preference on your device can be removed by clearing site data. If you are in a jurisdiction with data protection law (GDPR, CCPA or similar), these rights are preserved in full as described.

Data retention

The consent preference is retained on your device until you clear it. No server-side visitor data is retained by this project.

Changes to this policy

If the website's behaviour ever changes, this page will be updated with a new "Last updated" date. Changes will never introduce the sale or sharing of personal data.

Contact

This project processes no personal data and therefore keeps no data-request mailbox. For questions about our content, use the trusted sources in the footer. For anything about the zoo itself (tickets, donations, visits), use the official contacts on our Contacts page.
