TheDriveFM.ca is an editorial website that helps Canadians compare and choose the best sports betting sites in Canada, with a focus on market variety, competitive odds, bonuses, payouts, and mobile usability.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and share information when you visit TheDriveFM.ca.
We keep data collection minimal. Depending on how you use the site, we may collect:
Browsing and device data: pages viewed, approximate location (city/province level), referrer pages, device type, browser, operating system, and general usage events (like link clicks).
IP address: typically for security, fraud prevention, and basic analytics.
Cookies and tracking data: cookie IDs and similar identifiers used for analytics, advertising, and affiliate attribution.
Contact details (if you contact us): email address and any information you include in your message.
We do not ask for sensitive personal information (like government IDs or payment details) to browse our content.
We use information to:
operate and maintain the website
measure traffic and understand what content readers find useful
improve our guides and reviews (for example, betting markets, promos, or payment info)
prevent abuse, spam, and suspicious activity
attribute affiliate commissions when a reader clicks an affiliate link and signs up with a partner
respond to messages you send us
Like most websites, we use cookies and similar technologies (such as pixels) to:
remember basic preferences
understand usage patterns (analytics)
limit repetitive ads and measure ad performance (if ads are shown)
track affiliate link performance (for example, click IDs, UTMs, and referral parameters)
You can control cookies through your browser settings. You can also delete existing cookies at any time.
We may use:
Analytics tools to understand site performance and content engagement.
Advertising partners to display ads and measure ad results.
Affiliate tracking so we can earn a commission if you click a link and register or place a qualifying action with a betting operator.
Affiliate links may include tracking parameters (for example, UTMs or click IDs). This helps attribute referrals and does not change the price you pay.
We may share limited information with:
Service providers (hosting, analytics, security, spam prevention) who help us run the site
Advertising and affiliate partners for measurement and attribution
Legal or compliance authorities if required by law or to protect users and the site
We do not sell personal information for money. We only share information as needed to run the site, measure performance, and attribute partner referrals.
If you want to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information you’ve shared with us (for example, via email), you can contact us at:
To limit tracking:
use browser privacy settings and cookie controls
consider enabling “Do Not Track” settings where supported
use ad-blocking or privacy-focused browser settings if preferred
We keep information only as long as needed for the purposes described above. Typical retention windows may include:
analytics data: up to 24 months
basic server/security logs: up to 12 months
contact emails: only as long as needed to respond and keep a reasonable record of support conversations
We use reasonable safeguards such as HTTPS and access controls. No website can guarantee perfect security, but we work to reduce risk.
TheDriveFM.ca is intended for adults of legal gambling age in Canada (18+ in Alberta, Manitoba, and Québec; 19+ in most other provinces/territories). We do not knowingly collect information from minors.
