Privacy Policy

We at Bawara (the "Business," "we," or "us" in this Privacy Policy), the operator of the website at www.bawara.ca (the "Site"), recognize the significance of respecting users' privacy, especially their personal information. In order to fully inform you of our privacy policies and to allow you to contact us with any concerns, questions, or corrections regarding your personal information in our possession, we have put in place this Privacy Policy in accordance with the Canadian Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act ("PIPEDA") and Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation.

1. Accountability
This privacy policy was created by the company to ensure compliance with PIPEDA and Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation. You may contact us if you have any questions about this policy or concerns about the Business's compliance with the provisions of PIPEDA or Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation.

2. Determining the Purpose of Collection
When you search for our products or services, make an online reservation, or send an inquiry through the Site, we collect a variety of personal information from you. The information gathered may include your:


– Full Name

– Business Name

– Address (es)

– Telephone and fax numbers (s)

– E‐mail address (es)

– Gender

– Interest (s)

This information is gathered in order for us to:

– Verify your identity;

– Allow us to contact you in order to offer goods and services that you have requested;

– Send you periodic updates about the Site and our products and services.
We may also use your information to create a profile of your interests in relation to the Site or Business so that we can recommend or provide items or services that you might be interested in in the future.

We do not gather the information that is not reasonably necessary to achieve these goals.

CEMs and Consent
When you purchase a product or service on or via the Site, or when you supply information at our request, you agree to the collection and use of the information as described in this Privacy Policy and Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation.

When you expressly flip the opt-in button to provide express authorization for us to send you commercial electronic messages ("CEM"), you are giving us your express consent.

When you purchase our goods or services and offer your email address through a reservation, comment form, voucher, or another manner, you have given your implied consent.

We can only send you CEMs for three years from the date you purchase our goods and services if your information was captured before July 1, 2014, and two years if your information was captured after July 1, 2014, under compliance and enforcement of Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation. After that, you must provide us with express consent to continue receiving our CEMs.

As required by Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation, all email communications include the business name, contact information, and a means for the receiver to unsubscribe at no cost.

Please keep in mind that if you do not want to receive emails from us, you can unsubscribe automatically by clicking on the unsubscribe link found in the email communication sent to you by our Business.

You may also contact us to opt-out of certain other uses of your data.

3. Collection Restrictions
Personal information collected by businesses will be limited to what is reasonably necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected.

Data from research and surveys are returned to the Business as aggregated data, with no reference to individual customers.

Customers who do not want to be contacted for research or surveys should let us know.

4. Limiting Use, Disclosure, and Retention

Without your consent or as permitted or required by law, we will not use or disclose your personal information for purposes other than those for which it was collected.
However, we do use third-party services to complete certain electronic requests, such as reservations, and your personal information may be transmitted to such third parties for such purposes. If your personal information is to be transmitted to another party for processing or storage, we use contractual and other means to ensure that it is protected in accordance with PIPEDA.


Unless the law requires longer retention, your personal information is retained only for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected.

5. Accuracy
To ensure the highest levels of accuracy for your personal information, we allow you to enter such information into our systems yourself, to the extent possible. However, in some cases, such as when speaking with you over the phone or through another form of communication, we are required to enter such information (provided by you or otherwise).

6. Security measures
Your personal information is protected against theft, loss, and/or unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use, or modification while in our possession (or the possession of any entity engaged by us to house or store it), regardless of the format in which it is held, by security safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the information.

Some of the personal information you enter into our systems may be encrypted as it travels across the Internet. Depending on your web browser, you may notice a secure webpage indicator, such as a closed lock in the lower right-hand corner. We may encrypt some personal information as it travels from your computer to our systems using the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.

7. Openness

This policy outlines the company's privacy practices. Please contact us if you have any questions or comments.

8. Individual Access
You have the right to access your personal information held by the Business, subject to certain limited exceptions set out in the PIPEDA. By contacting us, you can gain access to your personal information.

9. Challenging Compliance
If you have any concerns about Business compliance with the ten principles of the PIPEDA or Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation, please contact us. Complaints about a company's PIPEDA compliance are taken seriously, and all complaints are investigated.

Privacy Policy Modifications
The company reserves the right to change this privacy statement at any time, so please check it frequently. If we make significant changes to this policy, we will notify you via our homepage and other appropriate channels so that you are aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it.
