Privacy Policy

This privacy policy explains which personal data is processed when you visit weseeabilities.org and which rights you have. We keep data processing on this website to a minimum: reading the article requires no account, no registration and no personal details.

1. Controller

2. Data processed when you visit this website

When you open this website, the web server automatically processes technical data that your browser transmits, including the IP address, date and time of the request, the requested file, the referrer URL, the browser type and the operating system. This data is required to deliver the website securely and reliably. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in the secure operation of the website (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Server log data is not merged with other data sources and is deleted on a regular schedule.

3. Contact by email

If you contact us at support@weseeabilities.org, we process the data you provide (your email address and the content of your message) to answer your enquiry. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR where your enquiry relates to a contractual matter, and otherwise our legitimate interest in answering enquiries (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). We delete correspondence once the matter is resolved, unless statutory retention duties apply.

4. Newsletter

This website offers an optional email newsletter with explanations of Canadian benefit and tax-credit topics. If you sign up, we process your email address to send you these updates.

• Consent. We send the newsletter only with your express consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), given by ticking the consent box before subscribing. Subscribing is voluntary and is not required to read any content on this website.
• Unsubscribe. You can withdraw your consent at any time, for example through the unsubscribe link included in every newsletter email or by writing to support@weseeabilities.org. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the withdrawal.
• Canadian recipients. For recipients in Canada we follow the principles of Canada's anti-spam legislation (CASL): we send commercial electronic messages only with consent, we identify the sender, and every message contains a working unsubscribe mechanism.
• No trading of data. Newsletter addresses are not sold and are not passed to third parties for their own marketing.

5. Cookies and local storage

This website does not use tracking cookies by default. Your cookie choice itself is stored in your browser's local storage (key “rhi-consent”) so that the banner does not reappear on every visit. This entry stays on your device.

If you choose “Essential only”, no advertising measurement is loaded. If you choose “Accept all”, the measurement described in section 6 may be used.

You can review or change this choice at any time: use the “Cookie settings” link in the footer of every page to reopen the banner and select again, or clear your browser's site data to reset it entirely.

6. Advertising measurement (Taboola)

This article is promoted through the advertising platform Taboola (Realize). To measure whether visits from those advertisements reach this page, a Taboola measurement pixel may be used. It processes technical information such as a truncated IP address, browser information and a click identifier, and helps us understand aggregate campaign performance. It does not give us your name or contact details.

The legal basis is your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), given through the cookie banner. You can find more information in Taboola's privacy policy at taboola.com/policies/privacy-policy.

7. Your rights under the GDPR

Regarding your personal data, you have the right to:

• access (Art. 15 GDPR),
• rectification (Art. 16 GDPR),
• erasure (Art. 17 GDPR),
• restriction of processing (Art. 18 GDPR),
• data portability (Art. 20 GDPR),
• objection to processing based on legitimate interests (Art. 21 GDPR), and
• withdrawal of any consent you have given, with effect for the future (Art. 7(3) GDPR).

To exercise any of these rights, contact support@weseeabilities.org.

8. Right to lodge a complaint

You have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority. The authority responsible for the controller is the Belgian Data Protection Authority (Autorité de protection des données / Gegevensbeschermingsautoriteit), Rue de la Presse 35, 1000 Brussels, Belgium, dataprotectionauthority.be.

9. Visitors in Canada

For visitors in Canada, we handle personal information in line with the principles of the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA): we collect only what is needed for the purposes described here, we use it only for those purposes, and you may request access to or correction of your personal information at support@weseeabilities.org. Canadian residents may also contact the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada with concerns.

10. Data retention

We store personal data only as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy or as required by statutory retention periods. Newsletter data is deleted after you unsubscribe, subject to a short technical processing window and any legal obligation to document consent.

11. Changes to this privacy policy

We may update this privacy policy when the website or the legal requirements change. The current version is always available on this page. Status of this version: August 18, 2026.
