Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 17, 2026

RenewalIQ ("we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect on renewaliq.ca and through the RenewalIQ iOS application, how we use it, and your rights under applicable Canadian privacy law (PIPEDA).

1. Information We Collect

1a. Website — email address

If you choose to subscribe to our mailing list through the form on this website, we collect your email address. This is the only personal information we collect directly from you on this website.

Email addresses are stored in Cloudflare KV (Cloudflare, Inc.), a serverless key-value store. We do not use a third-party email marketing platform; addresses are stored solely by us.

1b. Website — usage data and cookies

Like most websites, renewaliq.ca may collect non-personally-identifiable information automatically through your browser, including your IP address, browser type, referring pages, and pages visited. This data is collected by Cloudflare (our hosting and CDN provider) and may be used for security, performance monitoring, and analytics. See Cloudflare's Privacy Policy for details.

1c. iOS application — no data collection

The RenewalIQ iOS app collects no personal data. All mortgage calculations, scenarios, and inputs are stored entirely on your device using Apple's SwiftData framework. No data is transmitted to our servers or any third party. There is no account, no login, and no backend.

In-app purchases are processed by Apple through the App Store. We do not receive your payment information. See Apple's Privacy Policy for details.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

  • Email address: to send infrequent updates about RenewalIQ, including new features, new educational articles, and significant announcements. We do not send marketing emails on behalf of third parties. You may unsubscribe at any time by contacting us (see Section 7).
  • Usage data: to understand how visitors use the website and to improve its performance and content.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party.

3. Advertising

We may display advertisements on renewaliq.ca through Google AdSense (Google LLC) or similar third-party advertising networks. These services may use cookies and similar tracking technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.

Google's use of the DART cookie enables it to serve ads based on your visit to renewaliq.ca and other sites on the Internet. You may opt out of the use of the DART cookie at any time by visiting Google's Advertising Settings.

Third-party ad servers or ad networks use technologies such as cookies, JavaScript, or web beacons that appear in their respective advertisements and links on this website, which are sent directly to your browser. They automatically receive your IP address when this occurs. These technologies are used to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns and/or to personalize advertising content.

RenewalIQ has no access to or control over cookies used by third-party advertisers. You can choose to disable cookies through your browser settings; doing so may affect the functionality of some parts of this website.

4. Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device. This website may use the following types of cookies:

  • Strictly necessary cookies: Required for the website to function (e.g., Cloudflare security cookies). These cannot be disabled.
  • Analytics cookies: Help us understand how visitors interact with the website. These are anonymized and aggregated.
  • Advertising cookies: Used by Google AdSense and similar services to serve relevant advertisements. You may opt out as described in Section 3.

You can control cookies through your browser settings or by visiting aboutads.info or Your Online Choices.

Email addresses collected through our subscription form are retained until you request removal. Usage data collected through Cloudflare is subject to Cloudflare's data retention policies.
