Privacy
We collect very little. This page says what, and what we do not.

The short version
- This site sets no cookies of its own.
- There are no ads and no trackers.
- Our visit counts record visits, pages and referrers. They do not follow people.
Visit counts
We use Cloudflare Web Analytics to count visits. It records the number of visits, the pages viewed and referrers (the site that sent you here). It uses no cookies.
We do not use Google Analytics, and we do not add advertising or social-media tracking pixels.
Fonts and other third parties
Fonts are served from this site, not from a font service. Apart from Cloudflare Web Analytics, the site loads no third-party scripts.
Cloudflare hosts the site, so it handles every request, with your IP address. If a visit looks automated, its security check may set a strictly necessary cookie. The camera pictures on the Traffic and Cameras pages load straight from DriveBC (Province of British Columbia): your browser asks DriveBC’s server for each one, so DriveBC sees your IP address. We send no referrer with them.
Email you send us
If you email us, we see your address and your message. We use them to reply.
Mail to [email protected] is forwarded to a Gmail account, so Google stores it, outside Canada as well. We keep email for as long as we need it to reply and to keep the museum’s records. Ask us and we delete it.
If you send us a story, photos, scans or a film (Share your story), we keep them to check them and, only with your permission, to show them on this site with the credit you choose. You keep the copyright. Write to us at any time and we delete our copy.
The law
The Lions Gate Bridge Heritage Society runs this site. As a not-for-profit organisation in British Columbia it follows BC’s PIPA (Personal Information Protection Act).
In plain terms: you can ask what we hold about you, ask us to correct or delete it, and ask how we handle information.

Our privacy officer is the Privacy Officer of the Lions Gate Bridge Heritage Society. For privacy questions or a complaint, email [email protected].
