Privacy Policy

Tsunami Dating – Rencontres tsunamiques (the sole proprietorship soon to be incorporated, "our," "us," or "we"), owned by Vincent Carrier (Captain Vinny), watches over the well-being and safety of all its crew members aboard, mermaids and pirates. It is our duty to protect the personal information of all members. That is why we have drawn up this privacy policy.

Last updated on January 16, 2026.

This privacy policy describes how tsunamidating.com (hereinafter "the Site") collects, uses, retains, and protects the personal information of its users, in accordance with the Act respecting the protection of personal information in the private sector (Québec), as modernized by Law 25, as well as the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act and applicable provincial privacy laws.

Person responsible: Tsunami Dating – Rencontres Tsunamiques (Vincent Carrier).

Email: support@tsunamidating.com

The person responsible is in charge of ensuring compliance with Canadian personal information protection laws.

Last name, first name, nickname, email address, date of birth, age, profile photos, personal descriptions of qualities, flaws, talents, and passions, and messages and interactions on the site.

IP address, connection and browsing data, device type, operating system and browser, cookies and similar technologies.

Captain Vinny does not seek to intrude on the personal lives of pirates and mermaids. He primarily watches over their safety and makes sure no crew member is a robot, a ghost, or a scammer. Some information may be considered sensitive and is subject to explicit, clear, and informed consent. This information is collected only with the pirate's or mermaid's consent.

By using the Site and creating an account, the pirate or mermaid consents to the collection, use, and disclosure of their personal information in accordance with this policy. Consent may be withdrawn at any time, subject to legal and contractual obligations.

Personal information is used to create and manage pirate and mermaid accounts, enable matches between pirates and mermaids, facilitate communications between pirates and mermaids, improve the user experience and the Site's features, ensure security, moderation, and fraud and abuse prevention, comply with legal obligations, and send service-related communications.

Captain Vinny does not intend to send data specific to pirates and mermaids to third parties unless required by law. Information is neither sold nor rented. It may be disclosed only to service providers (hosting, maintenance, payment, analytics) bound by confidentiality agreements, and to government authorities when required by law.

When pirates and mermaids purchase a Pact or a resource in the app, their payment data is processed directly by Apple's App Store or by Google Play, which means we do not store any of our members' financial information and therefore have no access to their banking details.

Personal information is retained as long as the account is active, for up to ten years after the account is deleted, and for as long as necessary to comply with legal obligations. Pirates and mermaids may request the deletion of their account at any time. Once these periods expire, information is securely destroyed or anonymized.

We apply reasonable security measures to protect personal information, including encryption of sensitive data, access control, monitoring and prevention of unauthorized access, profile moderation (censorship of inappropriate photos and videos), and privacy incident management procedures.

In the event of a privacy incident presenting a serious risk of harm, the Site will notify the Commission d'accès à l'information du Québec (CAI), notify the pirates or mermaids concerned, and keep an incident register as required by Law 25.

In accordance with the law, pirates and mermaids have the following rights: to access their personal information, to request the correction of inaccurate information, to withdraw their consent, to request the deletion of their account and data (subject to the law), and the right to the portability of computerized information.

Requests may be sent to support@tsunamidating.com.

The Site uses cookies to personalize the experience of pirates and mermaids, generate usage statistics, and ensure the service runs properly. Pirates and mermaids can manage their preferences by changing their browser settings or using the tools offered on the Site.

Personal information may be hosted outside Québec (within Canada or outside Canada). When data is processed abroad, contractual and technical measures are put in place to ensure an adequate level of protection.

The Site is reserved exclusively for pirates and mermaids aged 18 and over. No personal information concerning minors is knowingly collected.

We reserve the right to change this policy at any time. Any significant change will be communicated to pirates and mermaids through a notice on the Site.

For any question, request, or complaint regarding the protection of personal information: support@tsunamidating.com

Pirates and mermaids may also file a complaint (after notifying us) with the Commission d'accès à l'information du Québec (CAI) or the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada.
