Privacy Disclaimer

The Peace River Regional District (PRRD) is committed to protecting your privacy. Our website has been designed to comply with the privacy provisions of the Freedom of Information and Privacy Act (FOIPPA).

Most of the information accessible on our website does not require you to identify yourself. However, the PRRD does collect personal information about you when you voluntarily supply it while doing business with us. Any personal information you supply to us is collected, used and disclosed in accordance with FOIPPA.

We will not sell, share or rent your personal information to any third party except to complete the business for which it was supplied. The information is for the sole use of staff in the provision of the services requested.

All effort is taken by the PRRD to ensure that information presented on the website is accurate and updated in a timely manner. All documents are provided “as is” without warranty of any kind and the PRRD does not make any representations concerning the accuracy, likely results or reliability of the use of the materials on this website.

The PRRD’s website contains links to external sites. These are provided for your information and convenience. The PRRD is not responsible for the privacy practices of these linked websites. The inclusion of these links does not imply endorsement by the PRRD, nor can we be held responsible in any way for the content found on any third-party website.

For visitors using a credit card to make payments through PRRDwater.com, we do not collect or store your credit card information. Payments made are handled through a third-party vendor application and no personal credit card information is stored within our system for that transaction.

The PRRD is committed to openness and transparency by facilitating access to records and information, unless that information falls under exemptions listed within FOIPPA. For more information on accessing records within the custody and control of the PRRD, please see Request Access to Records. 

This privacy disclaimer only applies to information collected on the PRRD’s website and is subject to change. All information on this site is protected by the Canadian laws of Copyright. Unless permission is granted, no one may copy, redistribute, reproduce or republish in any form any material located on this website.

Your Personal Information

However, personal information, which includes your Internet Provider (IP) address, may be collected, managed, processed and/or stored by a third-party service provider and is therefore not in the sole domain, custody and control of the Peace River Regional District.

This data is used to understand how visitors are using our website and how we can improve the user experience and access to information on our website.

We use and disclose your personal information only for the purposes for which it was collected, or as required by law.
