Privacy policy
Last updated 18 September 2026.
This policy explains what Boole collects and what it does not. It follows Canada's federal privacy law, PIPEDA.
What we collect
- Searches. The words you search for are used to return results and to improve the index. They are not linked to your name.
- Technical data. Like every website, our server records requests, including your IP address, the browser you use and the page you asked for. This protects the site from abuse.
- What you send us. If you write through the contact form or ask to remove a domain, we keep what you sent so we can answer.
What we do not do
- We do not sell personal information.
- We do not build an advertising profile about you.
- We do not ask for your name in order to search.
Cookies and analytics
Boole uses Google Analytics to count visits and see which pages are useful. Google sets cookies for this and processes the data on its own servers. You can block cookies in your browser, or install Google's opt-out add-on, and the site will still work.
Advertising
Pages may show advertising supplied by Google. Google and its partners may use cookies to choose which advertisements you see. You can control this in Google's ad settings.
We only send email to people who asked for it or who wrote to us first, as Canada's anti-spam law (CASL) requires. Every message we send identifies us and carries a way to unsubscribe, which we act on within ten business days.
How long we keep things
Server logs are kept for up to 90 days. Messages and removal requests are kept for two years, so we have a record of what was agreed. Search terms are kept in aggregate form only.
Your rights
You may ask what we hold about you, ask for it to be corrected, or ask for it to be deleted. Write to us through the contact page and we will answer within 30 days. If you are not satisfied, you may complain to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada.
Children
Boole is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect their information.
