iPro offers the Site as part of the regulated internet gaming market in Ontario that is conducted and managed by iGaming Ontario. In the course of providing access to and use of the Site, iPro collects, uses and discloses personal information on behalf of and as agent for iGaming Ontario. iPro collects, uses, discloses, retains and/or disposes of personal information in accordance with the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (“FIPPA”) and other applicable privacy laws, and under the authority of Ontario Regulation 722/21 made under the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario Act and the Operating Agreement between iPro and iGaming Ontario.

This Privacy Policy is incorporated into and constitutes part of the iPro terms of service, available at here (the “Agreement”). Any disputes related to this Privacy Policy, including any breaches in security or privacy, will be subject to the limitations on liability and dispute resolution provisions contained in the Agreement. All capitalized terms used in this Privacy Policy and not defined herein shall have the respective meanings assigned to them in the Agreement.

By using the Site, you acknowledge that you have read and agree to be bound by the terms of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to the terms set out herein, you may not use or access the Site.

COLLECTION OF INFORMATION

What is Personal Information?

For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, “Personal Information” means any information about an identifiable individual and includes any information that constitutes personal information within the meaning of FIPPA or any other applicable privacy law.

Information You Provide to iPro

iPro will collect the information you directly provide to it in the course of using the Site, such as when you apply for an Account, complete a “Contact Us” form, participate in tournaments, promotions or surveys, or otherwise communicate with iPro.

When you register for an Account, iPro will require you to provide certain Personal Information including, at a minimum, your name, date of birth, mailing address, email address, and any other information which may be required by the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act (Canada) and the regulations under it. iPro may also collect information contained on government issued identification (e.g., drivers’ license) and information needed to verify your place of residence if required to verify identity. When you fund your Account in order to participate in betting and wagering games offered through the Site, you will be required to provide your financial account and deposit information, along with withdrawal method details.

At any time during the Account registration process or thereafter, iPro may require you to provide additional information and documentation if iPro determines, in its sole discretion, that such additional information or documentation is: (a) required to comply with applicable laws or regulatory requirements, including the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (“AGCO”) Standards and/or anti-money laundering (“AML”) rules and regulations; (b) considered necessary or advisable by iPro to prevent suspected or actual fraud or other illegal activity; (c) required to address a suspected or actual breach of the Agreement; and/or (d) required to confirm your identity, age or entitlement to receive or withdraw Unutilized Funds. iPro may, in its sole discretion, ask that you provide notarized copies of these documents as an additional layer of verification. You hereby expressly consent to iPro’s verification (including through disclosure of your information to third party verification services) of all information you provide during the Account registration process or thereafter during your use of the Site.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, you will be required to provide iPro with such information and documentation as iPro may request or require in order to comply with its Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada (FINTRAC) reporting obligations.

Information iPro Automatically Collects

When you access or use the Site, iPro may automatically collect certain information about you, including:

  1. Log Information: iPro logs information about your use of the Site, including the type of Internet browser you use, access times, pages viewed, your IP address and the page you visited before navigating to the Site.

  2. Device Information: iPro collects information about the computer or mobile device you use to access the Site, including the hardware model, operating system and version, unique device identifiers and mobile network information. iPro may collect data from certain other services running in the mobile or desktop application, including your data about your Wi-Fi connection and browser, the use of VPN services, and the presence of any applications that circumvent location detection.

  3. Location Information: To participate in games, betting, wagering and promotions offered through the Site, you must be physically located in Ontario, Canada. iPro, its third-party service providers, and applicable federal or provincial regulators, including the AGCO and iGaming Ontario, may utilize tracking technologies to verify and record your physical location when you are participating or attempting to participate in games, betting, wagering and promotions offered through the Site (“Geolocation Technologies”). These Geolocation Technologies will report the physical location of the device you are using to access the Site. To enable the use of Geolocation Technologies on your desktop, you will be asked to install iProLocID software solution for location verification, which will collect information related to: (i) your device operating system, network adapter and network interface information; (ii) your IP address; and (iii) Wi-Fi.
    If accessing the Site from a mobile device, and if you grant iPro permission, the Geolocation Technologies will use your mobile devices’ built-in GPS to accurately show where the device, and the user of the device, are located.

  4. Information Collected by Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies: iPro may use various technologies to collect information via the Site. This may include sending cookies to your computer or mobile device. Cookies are small data files stored on your hard drive or in device memory that help iPro to improve the Site and your experience, see which areas and features of the Site are popular, and count visits. iPro may also collect information using web beacons (also known as “gifs”, “pixel tags” and “tracking pixels”) and flash cookies. Web beacons are electronic images that may be used on the Site or in emails and help deliver cookies, count visits, understand usage and campaign effectiveness and determine whether an email has been opened and acted upon. Flash cookies are text files sent by web servers when your browser requests Adobe Flash-supported content and are used for similar purposes as traditional cookies. For more information about cookies, web beacons, and flash cookies, and how to disable them, please see Section 11 (Your Choices) below.

Information iPro Collects from Other Sources

When you use the Site to play for real money online, iPro may use the services of Aristotle International Inc. ("Aristotle"), a third-party service provider, for purposes of verifying your identity to meet Ontario regulatory requirements. For such purposes, iPro and Aristotle may collect personal information from you and verify your identity with a credit bureau, including by accessing your credit file (for identity verification only). This is not a credit check and will not affect your credit rating or credit score. Collection, use and disclosure of your personal information for this purpose is required for regulatory compliance and therefore is a mandatory condition of using our products and services.

You agree that you will not disclose personal or sensitive information relating to any other person in a public forum of the Site without that person’s prior, express consent.

ADVERTISING AND ANALYTICS

iPro may allow others to serve advertisements on its behalf across the Internet and to provide analytics services. These entities may use cookies, web beacons and other technologies to collect information about your use of the Site and other websites, including your IP address, web browser, pages viewed, time spent on pages, links clicked and conversion information. This information may be used by iPro and others to, among other things, analyze and track data, determine the popularity of certain content, deliver advertising and content targeted to your interests on the Site and other websites and better understand your online activity. For more information about Internet-based ads, or to opt out of having your web browsing information used for behavioral advertising purposes, please visit: www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp and www.aboutads.info/choices.

iPro’s advertising and analytics service providers include:

  1. Firebase: Firebase is a suite of performance analysis and monitoring tools, which is provided by Google Inc. iPro uses Firebase to monitor the overall performance and stability of its mobile application, implement internal version control, identify bugs and prioritize fixes. For this purpose, Firebase collects your IP address, device identifier, as well as event and usage data specifically related to your use of iPro’s mobile application. It is not possible to opt-out of this as Firebase is an essential tool that iPro requires in order to provide a functioning mobile application to you.
  2. Google Analytics: Google Analytics is a web analytics service that provides statistics and analytical tools for search engine optimization and marketing purposes. iPro uses Google Analytics to see information on concerning Site activities including, but not limited to, page views, source and time spent on a Site and to provide advertisements to you on other websites. iPro uses Google Analytics on Sites to analyze how users use the website. Google Analytics may collect information such as user location as inferred from IP address, the amount of time a visitor spends on a Site, which pages are more frequently accessed, how the Site is accessed (either directly, from a search engine, or from a link), what sort of software is used (e.g., operating system, browser type, etc.), as well as demographics. For more information on how Google Analytics collects and processes information, please visit: www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/.
    For information about how to opt out of having your information used by Google Analytics, visit: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout/.
  3. Google Tag Manager: Google Tag Manager is a tag management system. Tags are small code elements that serve, for example, to measure traffic and visitor behaviour, to capture the impact of online advertising and to optimise remarketing. Google Tag Manager only manages tags, meaning that no cookies are used, and no Personal Information is stored. Google Tag Manager triggers these tags, which in turn collect data if necessary. If a deactivation has been made at the domain or cookie level, it remains valid for all tracking tags if they are implemented with the Google Tag Manager.
  4. AppsFlyer: AppsFlyer is an attribution and marketing analytics service. iPro uses AppsFlyer to measure and analyze the effectiveness of its marketing campaigns by understanding which marketing campaigns contributed to the download/installation of iPro’s mobile application. iPro also uses AppsFlyer to measure and analyze certain events and actions within the Site, such as in-app purchases made by you. iPro may share information that can be used to personally identify your device, such as IP address, operating system, device attributes and settings; the downloads and installations of iPro’s mobile application, and your other interactions with iPro’s mobile application.
    For information about how to opt out of having your information used by AppsFlyer, visit:https://www.appsflyer.com/legal/opt-out/
  5. Facebook Conversion API: Facebook Conversion API helps iPro better understand how you interact with the Site, including by allowing iPro to measure the impact of its ads on the Site’s conversions, and improves ad targeting through custom audiences. With the help of the Facebook pixel, iPro can track the effectiveness of Facebook ads for statistical and market research purposes by seeing whether users were redirected to the Site after clicking on a Facebook ad (“conversion”).
    Due to the marketing tools used (Facebook pixel and Conversions API), your browser automatically establishes a direct connection with the Facebook server. Through the integration of the Facebook pixel and the usage of the Conversions API, Facebook receives the information that you have called up the corresponding website of iPro’s Internet presence or clicked on an advertisement from iPro. If you are registered with a Facebook service, Facebook can assign the visit to your account.
    You can deactivate this tool via the Cookie Settings and for logged in users at https://www.facebook.com/settings/?tab=ads#.
