6. Data Handling & User Responsibility
6.1 User Data Ownership
You retain ownership of all data, content, and information you submit to the Service ("User Data"). By submitting User Data, you grant CampaignHQ a limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to store, process, and display your User Data solely for the purpose of providing the Service to you.
6.2 Data Backup Responsibility
YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR MAINTAINING INDEPENDENT BACKUPS OF ALL USER DATA. CampaignHQ does not guarantee the preservation, integrity, or availability of your data. We strongly recommend maintaining your own regular backups through independent means. CampaignHQ shall not be liable for any loss, corruption, deletion, or alteration of User Data, regardless of the cause.
6.3 Sensitive Data
You acknowledge that the Service is not designed, tested, or certified for the storage or processing of highly sensitive data categories. You agree to avoid submitting such data unless you have implemented adequate independent safeguards and confirmed compliance with applicable law.
6.4 Data Security
While CampaignHQ implements reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect User Data, we cannot guarantee that unauthorized third parties will never circumvent our security measures or that your data will remain secure at all times. You acknowledge that:
• No method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure
• Data may be lost, corrupted, accessed, or deleted at any time
• CampaignHQ is not responsible for unauthorized access to your account resulting from your failure to maintain secure credentials
• In the event of a data breach, CampaignHQ's liability shall be limited as set forth in Section 8 of these Terms
6.5 Contact Data & Privacy Laws
You are solely responsible for ensuring that your use of the Service complies with all applicable privacy and data protection laws, including CASL, PIPEDA, and any other relevant legislation. You represent and warrant that you have obtained all necessary consents and authorizations to collect, store, and process any personal information of third parties through the Service.
6.6 Third-Party Services
The Service may integrate with or link to third-party services (including but not limited to Stripe for payment processing, Resend for email delivery, and mapping providers). CampaignHQ is not responsible for the privacy practices, data handling, or security of any third-party service.
6.7 Third-Party Tracking & Analytics Integrations
The Service allows you to connect your own third-party analytics and tracking tools (including Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics) to your published campaign site by entering a container or measurement ID ("Tracking ID") in your site settings.
(a) No Auditing of Container Contents. CampaignHQ injects only the standard, publicly published bootstrap code for the tracking provider, parameterized with your Tracking ID. CampaignHQ does not review, audit, control, or have visibility into the tags, pixels, custom HTML, or scripts you configure inside your own tracking container. The contents of your container may be changed by you at any time without CampaignHQ's knowledge.
(b) Sole Responsibility for Container Contents. You are solely and fully responsible for all tags, pixels, and scripts configured within your tracking container, and for ensuring they comply with all applicable privacy and data protection laws, including PIPEDA, CASL, the GDPR, and any other relevant legislation. This includes obtaining any necessary consent from visitors before non-essential cookies or tracking technologies are set.
(c) Consent Banner. When a Tracking ID is configured, CampaignHQ automatically displays a cookie consent banner on your published site and sets Google Consent Mode v2 to "denied" by default. Tracking cookies are only activated after a visitor accepts. Notwithstanding this feature, you remain responsible for ensuring your tracking container respects consent signals and for the lawfulness of any data collected.
(d) No PII in the Data Layer. You must not push personally identifiable information (including but not limited to email addresses, names, phone numbers, or donor information) into the Google Tag Manager data layer or any similar tracking mechanism. Only anonymous, aggregate events (such as page views or button clicks) may be tracked.
(e) Right to Disable. CampaignHQ reserves the right to disable any Tracking ID, in its sole discretion, if we determine that the associated container may violate these Terms, harm visitors, or expose CampaignHQ to legal or reputational risk.
(f) No Liability for Third-Party Trackers. CampaignHQ is not liable for any data collected by, or any act or omission of, third-party tracking providers operating on your campaign site, including any breach of visitor privacy, regulatory penalty, or loss arising therefrom.
