Last updated October 9, 2026. Simcoe Local collects information needed to run the local directory, review submissions, answer messages and deliver the Simcoe Weekend newsletter.
Information you send us
The embedded Simcoe Weekend signup form sends your email address, name if supplied and subscription information to Sender, our email service provider. Subscription requires confirmation through the email sent to you. Earlier signups may also remain in private WordPress records. Business and event submissions may include a name, email, phone number, address, website and description. Contact and advertising forms record the details you provide and notify the site administrator. We review submissions before public listing information appears on the site.
How site activity is counted
We count aggregate clicks on event and business website or booking links to understand which listings readers use. These counters do not store a visitor name, email address or personal profile. Standard hosting and security tools may process technical access information to operate and protect the website.
External services and links
We use Sender to manage Simcoe Weekend subscriptions and deliver confirmation, welcome and newsletter emails. Sender processes subscription information for these purposes. Some listing pages embed Google Maps and link to independent organizers, businesses and booking sites. Those services have their own privacy practices.
Your choices and corrections
To ask about information you submitted, correct a listing or request removal of a newsletter signup record, contact Simcoe Local. You can unsubscribe using the link in newsletter emails or contact newsletter@simcoeweekend.ca. We do not publish your private contact-form message as a listing.
