Privacy Policy.

Depending on how you interact with YWHS, we may collect:

• your name, email address, and province or community;
• membership and invitation details, including activation and consent records;
• Deal Pack purchase, item, status, and buyer-binding details;
• security or partner-with-us requests, including the service or offer requested, business name and address (partner), contact name, contact and public phone numbers, contact email, municipality when provided, and notes;
• contact messages, including your name, email address, phone number, and the details you send us;
• visit requests, including the options you select (for example membership, deal pack, or partner service), your first name, phone number, street address, and related location details we derive from that address (street, municipality, province, and country — Canada for now); we do not store GPS coordinates from this form;
• canvassing lists of civic street addresses in areas we assign to our sales teams (from public address data — no occupant names or phone numbers);
• whether a civic address in an assigned area is unvisited, approached, do-not-visit, sold, or not built;
• door-to-door seller visit logs (outcome, seller, time, optional approximate location); and
• Apply requests, including your name, email, phone, your address (street, city, province, and postal code), the role you applied for, and a short note about why you want to join — collected to review a YWHS team / sales application;
• do-not-visit records described below.

We use information to provide and manage memberships, deliver Deal Pack links and offers, review partner and security requests, support door-to-door sales operations (assigning streets, avoiding re-knocks, respecting do-not-visit requests), communicate with you, protect the website, keep appropriate records, and meet our legal and operational responsibilities.

We also use contact-form details to reply to your inquiry and follow up if needed.

An Apply request collects contact details so we can review a team / sales application. Submitting the form does not create an account.

We use visit-request details to contact you about the options you chose, to plan a visit in your area, and to see where interest is clustered for turf planning. We do not use this form for continuous location tracking.

We do not sell personal information. We do not sell or share door-to-door visit / turf / canvassing data with third parties for their marketing. We share personal information only when needed to operate the service, when you ask us to, or when required or permitted by law.

YWHS does not offer public self-registration. Membership sign-in and activation are invitation-based, and an invitation link may be used to connect a person to the appropriate membership or Deal Pack experience.

Partner access works the same way. A partner signs in with an email link and a sign-in code.

A partner-with-us request collects the business name, business address, contact name, contact phone, public phone, contact email, optional municipality, and a short about-the-business note so we can review a partnership. It does not create an account by itself.

A public partner page shows the business name, public phone, short description, municipality, approved deal wording, and the logo only when the business agreed to its use.

Staff may store an optional rounded map point (approximate latitude and longitude, about 25 metres) on an internal partner-prospect record for staff maps and proximity filters. The same rounded point may also be kept on the partner's internal profile for staff Deal Pack proximity. That point is personal location data tied to the prospect business contact record. It is not published on the public partner page, is not joined to household turf, and can be cleared by staff. Access or deletion requests for that record (including its rounded map point) follow the privacy-request process below — email privacy@youngworkershs.ca.

We use necessary cookies and session information to keep sign-in secure and maintain your session. We do not use those tools to create a public profile for sale.

Staff visit logging (optional location): When our sales team uses the internal turf tools, a team member may optionally share device location for a visit log. If they do, we store only an approximate location (rounded to about 10 metres). That location ping is a seller-activity statistic. It is not stored with a civic address, we do not reverse-geocode it to create an address file, and we do not join it back to a house. We do not use continuous GPS tracking of staff or residents, we do not store empty or dummy coordinates, and we do not publish a public map of visits.

GPS may hint which house on a walk list is nearest. It does not auto-log a visit. The civic number on the assigned walk list is what we use for coverage (approached vs not).

Security job-site checks may use a separate on-site / not-on-site location check; that is not the same as door-to-door visit logs.

Canvassing list: Area managers load civic street addresses for neighbourhoods they choose, or for a drawn boundary, using City of Winnipeg public Address Points (and similar public civic data in other communities we work). We keep number, street, neighbourhood, and even/odd side. We do not add occupant names, phone numbers, owner names, assessment rolls, or voter lists to that inventory. We load only areas we actually assign, not a city-wide personal file.

Sellers working an assignment see a walk list of civic numbers on the current street-side. They tap a result from a fixed list (for example: no answer, not interested, information left, return later, sale, or no solicitation / do not visit).

Coverage (keyed to civic address): For assigned areas we record whether a civic address is unvisited, approached, do-not-visit, sold, or not built. That is so teams do not re-knock the same home and so leftover work stays on the list. We do not keep a durable “not interested / no answer” label on the house. The seller’s own visit log may show their result the same evening; that detail is removed or collapsed to “approached” on a short schedule (within 7 days).

Not built: Some civic numbers are vacant or not yet built (for example a zoned lot). We may mark those as not built so they stay off walk lists. That mark is lot inventory, not a person: it is not an approached home, not a knock, not a do-not-visit request, and not a household visit outcome. We do not attach a name, phone number, or GPS point to a not-built mark. If we reload public address data, a not-built civic stays off walk lists unless an area manager clears the mark.

Addresses missing from public data: If a new home is on the street a seller is working but is missing from the public address list, the seller may add civic numbers only — and only inside that evening’s assigned pack, on the street they are on, as a first-to-last range on the even or odd side. No names, phone numbers, or GPS on those rows. Added numbers stay unvisited until someone knocks. An area manager later confirms them into the lasting inventory. If we reload public address data, duplicates are dropped rather than creating a second file on the same civic.

Sale: When a visit is a sale, that civic address is removed from turf walk lists right away. Address, QR, product, and price stay on the sales / membership record — not on the canvassing list. Any approximate GPS ping for stats is stored without a civic address and is not joined back to the house.

Who can see what: Peer sellers do not get each other’s visit-outcome feeds or a live map of stops. A helper sent by a team leader may see another seller’s remaining unvisited civic numbers in that assignment only — not outcomes, notes, or GPS. Area managers and team leaders may see covered vs open vs do-not-visit in their area (not colour-coded by “not interested”). Other sellers may see that a street-side is claimed, open, or released with unvisited homes left — not a civic-level outcome list.

Do not visit: If you ask us not to return, or indicate no solicitation, we record your civic address in a do-not-visit list (separate from GPS and from the seller’s short visit log) so other team members working that street can see an alert. Field sellers cannot simply overwrite that record. Manager changes are audited.

Not interested: If you are not interested but have not asked us to stay away permanently, we may treat the civic as approached and wait before it is offered again (a cooldown; draft about 90 days). That is not a do-not-visit record. You can still ask us not to return, which uses the do-not-visit list instead.

Notes: Sellers may add a short optional note. We ask them not to put names, phone numbers, or emails in notes. Temporary notes are removed on a short schedule (within 7 days).

Retention:

• Unvisited civic numbers (including seller-added numbers not yet confirmed): inventory for the assignment; dropped when that assignment is dissolved unless an area manager confirms them into inventory.
• Not-built civic numbers: inventory only (not a household file); stay off walk lists until an area manager clears the mark (a public-data reload does not bring them back on its own).
• Approached civic coverage: kept only as long as reasonably needed so we do not re-knock (draft: about 12 months), then removed or reset per our operational rules.
• Seller visit-outcome detail: short; collapsed to approached within 7 days; remaining logs then deleted or rolled up to area summaries (draft: 90–180 days).
• Approximate GPS pings: same short operational period as visit stats; never reverse-geocoded.
• Do-not-visit addresses: kept longer so we can keep respecting them (draft: about 7 years).
• Sales and legal records: follow their own retention needs.

We ask for meaningful consent where appropriate, including an electronic checkbox before membership activation, partner claim or account-delegate acceptance, a public partner or security request, a contact message, a visit request, or an Apply request. We keep consent records with the related operational record so we can show what was agreed to and when.

Doorstep interactions are brief. We provide this policy (and, where used, a privacy card linking here) so you can see how canvassing lists, visit logs, and do-not-visit requests work. You can decline to speak with us or ask us not to return.

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards and retain information only as long as it is reasonably needed for the purpose collected, legal requirements, dispute handling, or legitimate operational records.

We use bot checks, rate limits, and similar safeguards on public forms to reduce spam and abuse.

Contact messages are kept only as long as reasonably needed to handle your inquiry, then removed or archived per our operational rules (draft: about 12 months unless a related account or legal matter requires longer).

We keep visit requests only as long as reasonably needed to contact you and plan a visit, then remove or anonymize them under our operational rules (target: when a manager closes the request, when a seller visits that address, or within about 90 days — draft). We may keep area-level summaries (for example municipality or street segment, interest type, and week) without your name, phone, or full civic address.

Apply / recruiting CRM records (name, email, phone, address, notes) are kept only as long as reasonably needed to review and follow up on a team / sales application, then removed or archived under operational rules (draft: about 12 months after the file is closed, unless a related membership or legal matter requires longer). Partner-with-us PublicRequest rows use a similar draft window (~12 months); visit PublicRequest rows target ~90 days.

If you meet a YWHS seller, you can confirm their identity using the Worker ID or QR on their ID badge. We show a worker photo, name, public title, how long they have been with us, their manager's name, and (when their manager is an Area Manager) that manager's work phone for verification. Profiles are not a public staff directory and are not listed for browsing. We use rate limits and similar safeguards against guessing Worker IDs. Profiles are removed when the person leaves YWHS. Workers are told in their agreement that this information may be shown for door validation.

Use Verify a Seller only with the badge QR or Worker ID from someone at your door. Correction or removal requests: email privacy@youngworkershs.ca.

You may ask to access the personal information we hold about you, request a correction, or ask us to delete information where appropriate. Please email privacy@youngworkershs.ca and copy admin@youngworkers.ca. Tell us what you are requesting and how we can verify the relevant record; we may need to confirm your identity before responding.

If you ask what we have “on your address,” we will look for:

• canvassing coverage (whether that civic is unvisited, approached, sold, or not built in an assigned area);
• a do-not-visit record;
• a sales / membership record if you bought from us.

Approximate staff GPS pings are not a file on your property and are not reverse-geocoded to your address. We will review requests within a reasonable period, subject to legal exceptions and records we must retain.
